I'm planning on burning some ribeyes after I pop in my new Eibach springs and rear Bilstein shocks. Sal wants to help so maybe we will get into changing the trans filter also. Burgers after that and maybe a London Broil the following day.

Hope you guts all have a safe and great Holiday weekend!

not entirely all terrain, but it will make it down a farm road, park under a shady oak next to 50 acres of sunflowers. we've had so much rain this year, there's 2 feet of grass growing in the sunflower patches, which makes it triple hard to find downed birds. The brush hog cut some decent swaths to walk in, but if the dovy dove flies over and miraculously meets some of the "pattern" not over the cuts, it's near impossible to find without DISCO, my friends new black lab. He missed about 10% yesterday, but he's not yet two, so he gets a pass.

a week until my fall surf trip, I have 2 weeks of crap to do before I go. finish writing 8 security procedures, a disaster recovery plan and a business continuity plan. Then I'll get liquored up in time for Monday. :D

hey, wasnt there another hurricane headed for west palm that you guys got? Oh right, Andrew.

I really hope I don't have to go home to put our house back together, we live around the palm beach area.

Go to Sears and get that 14 mm allen key... use sears.com to see which store has it in stock... not all of them have it... then cut the key shorter to make it fit.

...and down to ~4 mph directional speed. I hope it doesn't take a left and come for a visit. North Dade has gotten a few "feeder bands" of gusts and a little rain, but not much else. At 11:30 this morning the first gusts came through and a huge 40' ficus tree blew over about 200 yds from my house. My parents are in Boca Raton and they've had more wind and rain so far. "They" say it will still get very windy and wet up from the Dade/Broward line, it's just a matter of when the storm decides to start moving. No Gator game, huh?

postponed until our normal buy week, but more importantly, no classes today so I got to postpone my vibrations homework!

We have no class monday and my girlfriend doesn't have any classes tuesday, so she's chillin with a 5 day weekend and we(she) decided to go visit her rents in tampa, so its sunny for me!

used to live in Oahu. Breaking out the longboard, and maybe the short up here in the Florida panhandle, thanks to Frances. Hope no damage is done, jsut want some surf..... I'm nearly liquored up now. Friday nights at the O'Club (USAF dude), kids spending the night somewhere else. In the a.am. catch a par 3 on Okaloosa Island, afternoon nap, wash and wax, and catch some evening surf somewhere between Panama City and Pensacola. Cheers and alohas. Rob.

Either Hatteras when I visit the folks (they live nearby), Wrightsville (Wilmington) when I'm working down east, Folly Beach (SC) if I need an easy in and out.

I drove by your station point in the spring when we were in Destin. Did the air museum in Pensa. Took 98 there....criminy, I could have walked faster. Took 10 home to stretch out the legs.

Saw some break at Elgin...when you cross over Choctawwhatever Bay mouth coming in from Destin.

No trip if I don't get this idiotic crap done. :P
