Garth,

Thank you for your generous offer, however I must decline.

My plan is to be around long enough to be one of  the crazy old guys in a
bad ass car so I

can be laughed at by * holes, right up til I blow their doors off........
again.

Michael



PS, So you're saying that when I exceed the speed limit by 100 mph on those
"rare" instances that the car and I  may not survive an impact?
damn, that won't slow me down.

People are like milk, we all have an expiration date, the key is knowing
when that
that might be and living fully right up until the end.

Some people fail to consider all the consequences of their actions, those
are usually the ones
with the early expiration dates.
