Darn -
I wish we had TV so I could've watched ya in action... you're practically famous!

The only time I saw myself on TV was on America's Most Wanted

Now Now, you will never hear me whine about 85. 85 is perfect, for SUMMER.

I just don't like it when the rest of the country is enjoying their summers when the their kids are out of school, and we just try to SURVIVE it. Remember I just came off of some almost $1000 electric bills (we know why now) and Lake Lavon still hasn't recovered from our drought. Pardon me while I whine a little bit about our Summers from Hell.

I am REALLY enjoying our weather right now!! Cept, GIVE ME SOME SNOW!!!

Yeah, the high idle still kicks in.

I was parked at the airport since Monday night, got in last night around 11pm. Fired right up, then idled on up. Still going to have to find some cold enough weather to check out the 3 cylinder idle (although under the tin roof at the parking spot, it was rattling enough)
