I, for one, think it is too close to Christmas to NOT believe in Santa Claus!

Wow, took me a while to catch up since I've been gone. Thanks to all those "pulling for me" (which seems to be everybody). I realize there are a few hesitating, and honestly, until yesterday (prior to my conversation with Sandy), I had lost 90% of hope. I'm trying not to think about this on a minute by minute basis...I just hope Sunday gets here soon

I should know more by then.

My wife and I were talking about it a little last night on our road trip and were discussing what Brady (our son) and I would do to the car...Keep it all original (as is), or do some upgrades Sportspac Rims, etc...I think we should keep it as untouched as possible

What if she's some psycho rapist who is using the classic mini to lure you into a trap!?!? Wouldn't you rather send someone else to make sure it was okay first?

Cant beat that for a 4x4. I'd buy a Samurai to tool around in if I didn't have 5 vehicles for myself already.

oh I looooove my Sammy, believe you me, I was just meaning that it takes a good upkeep and some pokcte change to keep it running!

It's a great desert toy...we even spray painted skulls on it hehehehe (the boyfriend's idea, however...)

sorry to hijack..

Oh you behave wbarnhill!

BTW: This is Misty, aka "Miniola". I was the driver of the PW Cabrio (with temp tags) that joined in your parade in October (well you joined ours first)... freezing our hoo-hahs off with the top down and getting snowed in (by that freak snow) on Beech Mountain! HI!

(I did my first post under the husband's ID)... but then I got my own identity and it's been all downhill from there.

Hope all is well up there.

Thanks man... now I have the "I Believe in Santa Claus" song from the "Year Without a Santa Claus" movie. You know the one with the Heat Miser? I think I'll have to watch that tonight!

Gotta go. Hopefully when I come back later we will have SOMETHING.
