Mike, as nice as it is having my parents to fall back on in times of need I'm tired of relying on them. This is why I have a job and try to pay for everything while I'm working. I hate being dependent on people especially for money.

Listen to the pot calling the kettle black... we all saw that "cozy" pic of you under your truck in the March thread... in the "driving" position!

I know how it is to depend on family for help. I once borrowed $260 from my grand dad to buy my first car and $100 from my mom to get back from Cali. It took awhile, but I finally managed to pay them back.

Charlie's walking away in disgust...

Brian can't believe what just happened...

Mike is just trying to lend a helping hand...

Rowland's curiousity got the better of him...

Tyler is taking it all in stride (this must happen to him a lot),

.... and Robert is handling the voyeur duties.

Thanks for posting that picture...I think. Was going to take a break from my diet...to celebrate loosing the first 20 lbs.... but that pic strenghtened my resolve.
That can't be me??? Where it the 21 yr old college graduate, with a good back and a full head of hair, who's pic is on the wall in my daughters room and that I see in the mirror every morning?? I'm definately putting my picture of Buda back up on the door of my refrigerator and lowering my goal weight by another 10 lbs!

Mike...web site is up and what's done so far looks good!!

Mike,
My wife would like me to order one of your "Blow Out Eliminators" for myself.

Well,
Looks like I can't make Ardmore on Friday (I thought it was Saturday)
Is anything going on Sat. evening? I have to go to my lease early Saturday morning to pick up all my stuff, but would be interested to see if anyone will be around Sat night.

~Rob

Thanks for letting me use photos of y'alls trucks with LazarSmith parts installed, guys!

Website is a work in progress - more added almost daily through the end of June...

Rob, have you told the spousal unit that the BOE is for your truck - not your jeans?
