found this in my inbox:

so what does one do when a bc member is in his town?

well, im under age, and dont quite have that kind of time

argue with him constantly about why he should not have sold his ssei for a buick

Randall, don't worry,
A. I'm a trucker, and I don't drink on the job.
B. I didn't bring my car, and I won't lower myself to wrench on a Ford.
C. I just like to get to meet BC people in person when I get the chance. It doesn't have to be the Grand Tour of Las Cruces, or a major production. We can just shoot the sh*t for a 1/2 hour and then go our ways, having put faces and personalities to the names.

or just run over him with the tempo for doing it

You're right, why didn't I realize then my desperate need for a paperweight?

ahem, a paper weight in the shape of a bonnneville

Well, I don't know how in H*ll T.J. got the thing to run again, but shortly thereafter, it blew up on him. So that makes three motors in a year. I think that the Buick, which has only thrown a tranny(which I was going to upgrade anyway) may have been a better deal.
