Yep, those go in the "Round" File too!! Luckily our CU has a Shred Day coming soon, our "To Be Shredded Box" is over flowing, but I think I still have some stuff to go through before then.

Am I the only one who is hoping that the USPS just Folds Up, Stamps itself, and Moves somewhere WARM??!! Oh...I just remembered my Happy ***** Order(s)...how would I get those??

I'll be heading out to the Dragon tomorrow morning. Huh... make that this morning, about 6 or 7 hours from now (8-9am departure.) It will be a two day trip, so as not to fall asleep doing the whole 17 hours straight.

Anyway, I've never been before. University deadweek/finals had always gotten in the way.

Yah, I need to update the MINI posters but they look great on the wall so no rush. btw, that's a 370Z. Was never a fan of 350Z's.

Then you need to swap the G35 for a G37 so my word mashing works!

No Dragon for me this year

I got ya' beat Ken...My Surgery +5Day Hospital Stay $127,138.66, my Insurance is picking up 98% of that, I have a $300 Ded. and my Final Tally should be around $1220.24!! This is what has been submitted so far, I'm still waiting on the Anesthesiologist, I'm thinking that is going to be the Whopper!! Oh well, it's only $$, I have to look at it like I had no choice in the matter, it was this or having a Catastropic Event happen (at some point)!!

Free Car Budget (1)??? That would be MY 5 Car Budget!!

Thanks for asking, I just passed 5 Weeks of Post-Op on Wednesday, I'm feeling pretty good, napping daily helps, I'm moving a bit slow, but the pain is subsiding quite nicely, for the most part!!

I had quite a bit already saved up for a nice chunk to be cut out of Molly's Auto Loan...Oh well!!

If you find a $$Tree...you're gonna' make sure and let the rest of the Detailing 101 Group know...RIGHT??!!
