Mike, we always miss your smiling face every time we gather at TMS for that largest portable salvage yard in Texas. Wish you could make it at least for a day or two, buddy. Can't possibly schedule some time for it a year in advance? We'll all hoist a "cold one" for our friend from Friendswood. Keep us in your prayers, Mike. TR

I like that description:

"the largest portable salvage yard in Texas"

Well mike I bet you could make it but you would need a lot of coffee and would have to go with no to little sleep. What time you get off work and they making you work weekends? It's just a 6 hour ish drive for you one way.

But As TR said we will raise a "cold one" for you at the Largest portable salvage yard in Texas"...

What no trips down 35 next week.. If you do it would just be a bad thing to have a flat next to TMS... You would have to walk to make a call because of all the cell phone towers are jammed because of the people there. We could come and pick you up on the side of the road just let us know.... I'm trying to help but I understand stuff comes up. I got luckly and my work didn't send me to lubbock this week and next week. I don't think they wanted that fight from me.

What dates are the swap meet? I used to set up there years ago when it was still at the museum. One of the best layed baack meets that I attended. Hope you all have a good time. Have the time and don't have any extra cash at the moment. I won't go if I have not cash to spend. Used to find some great parts there.

Nah Chris, I don't work for them anymore - back to local driving. If I was still there I was going to try to arrange one of those runs with an extra day but now I am in the middle of too much stuff to run down myself too.

No whining Mikey.
There's no whining in Texas.
I thought OTC was every other year. Is there something you're not telling us?
Man up and make plans for next year.
Oh yeah, we'll miss you at the BBQ and BS Friday night. Word is that PFM is cooking ribs and he'll have lots of cold adult beverages.
So since you won't be there, we'll all SUCK one down for you.
Bwahahahahaaaaaaa
