Good to see everybody that came today. We had a couple of new faces. BBA and his friend.
Good to meet Mike's lady. Wow, what a voice! She sang "Happy Birthday" to him today with an "Opera voice" in the middle of Texas Roadhouse and the whole place stopped to listen. Still not sure what language that was. Italian? It was beautiful.

Speaking of death. I have been training a rookie the past 4 weeks or so. So I have been extremely busy at work taking all the hard/difficult calls.
We went to the stabbing domestic murder of a L/F by hubby...in front of their 2 year old. We arrested him and he was saying what a relief it was that he did what he did. (Bipolar)
Last Sunday a call involved the suicide of a 18 yo kid...put a .45 to his head right above his right ear. His dad found him...(Garland Firefighter) and his mother (Garland Homicide Detective) was on scene too.
Couple of nights ago...worked a kidnapping/abduction/rape at knife point.
Been to jail numerous times for various other things. Been to the psych ward 3 different times with some other fruit cakes.......one of which thought it was a funny joke to spray his 75 yo female neighbor with a fire extenguisher right in the face.
Welcome to the Big D!

Nice meeting Kevin & Hayden (what's your user name on DTR?).... and the three younger men that showed up in the Dually at 10:00 pm.
Always amazes me how you can almost count on CTD owners being fun people to know... at any age!
'BBA' - Thanks for testing my Quad Box... you let me know the problem WAS in my wiring afterall!
'Hotdram' - Love the new wheels!
'School Bus' - Thanks for the HTS Demo! When that thing shift it feels just like Brian shifting through the gears at the track... a real head snapper!
Sorry I had to leave Sat night... hurt my back playing under the hood in the afternoon. It's been so good lately I didn't bring my pills so had to get home for relief. Pain made me stupid.... I forgot to put the Smarty back to stock (after fixing the wiring on the Adrenaline).
Drove home with Smarty on #7 and Quad Box on #2!
Can you say "TOO MUCH TIMING", boys & girls? All the way home I was thinking...I don't remember the surging on the Quad Box being this noticable.
Thanks to our president for making 'The Ranch' available. With all you have going on lately, Charlie, it was very gracious of you! Hope we helped by taking your mind off your family problems .... for a while! And it's just not a DTR#8 get-together without an oil fire.
Thanks also, to Brian, for figuring out my electrical problem! I was surprised how much I missed the Adrenaline Box!
Happy Holidays to all... may your CTD 'wish list' be completely eliminated.

What does everyone say about the San Antonio Dyno day being a group meet between the Texas Chapters? Or is there going to be enough of you going to say Texas #8 was there?

Great seeing everyone again as well as the new guys. I really need to stop bringing my boys to these things. Took the youngest to the dyno day in Lewisville, he still talks about what he wants HIS CTD to do when he gets one. He's 14 now.
Took the oldest to the ranch Sat. My wallet starts to burn every time he sees one of the BOMBED trucks. I still haven't heard the end of how much he likes the BigRed BCS truck...
I swear, I think I just may have my hands full and wallet empty with two boys that are into hot rod trucks.
