    Thanks Jeremy!

    *grumble* I'm waiting for my free copies to come in the mail. Looks like I might have to hit up Barnes and Noble to get a copy.

    Yup, if it has a super roo sticker it's either owned by Scott or at some point was owned by Scott.

    Pretty good on this end. Did you see the new toy I posted earlier this week? I gave up on my dream of swapping a 5.0 and stick into the 85 and just bought a car with what I want already installed.

    Now I've just got to find a place that'll paint it within my budget.
