I just have a sweet mechanics body, thats all.

You around this week? My dually needs some diagnostics done to it, wondering if you might be able to lend a hand.

Tate, I'm around but working down town. I will be home after work which is around 4pm. I'll call you and see what your schedule look like.

Wink, your actually early. My birthday isn't till next Sunday (Aug 16), the day after the blackout. I hope to get a chance to go fishing with the old man, that day.

Might have to drink a few beer on my b-dayso shh...My truck is too muddy (aka slow) to race, so thats out. I have to build a truck just to get in on the fun with you Kev.
Well I still owe you some beer, so I will make sure I bring it with to black out. That should cover you for at least one evening...

I guess this makes up for the fact that I didn't buy my injection pump from it when it went all those years ago./

Shame you are out fishing, thought you might take the mega down the track this year.
