Dennis.  Let me have the pie to take back with me.  That way I can tell Jim how good it was.

Lorena, Texas (South of Waco)

Jim:

We'll miss you buddy.  Doesn't Nokia know that Texans need some vacation time???

John - "The Hoosier Hurricane"

Too bad Jim, Shall I send a piece of pie back with Ted? Or do you think it will get eaten along the way?

Unfortunately, work got in the way again this year. I will be cooking in the Texas heat while you guys are in Ohio having a great time. I will just have to settle for pictures this year.

latest pic's of the Bird - its sat un-touched for the last couple of months - too danged hot to go out in the garage........

Nerf bars were made to look like the Ford "Battlebird" - Mustang 16 inch wheels and short rubber....

Grille came back from the plater after photo - still isn't on and I need to finish testing the hood seal set-up. Had to get a junker scoop grille off ebay and cut the bars out - otherwise whistles like crazy....

Well guys, whatever problems we see on the site are because of my failings! I try to work an hour or two every night on profiles, I am working on the S.E. area now and will move on to the off shore profiles as soon as finish up the Americas ones. If I can ever take some time away from Nokia, I should be able to make more progress. Although there are two co-admins for the forums, the main part of the site is a one man band.
