I don't go to CA or CA-east (colorado)...I've boycotted them...we've managed 
to either convert or restrain the Boulderites and Californicators that make 
it to Texas, but it's a full time job...My wife is worried about the borders
(particularly the north Texas border--they're NOT doing a good job there)....

Yeah, they shot at me the last time I drove north from the bay area...

Got the transmission and a tire already (used)...I had some money saved for 
vacation, but then they ran a sale at the liquor store...always happens at the 
WORST time... 
> Or be brave and patriotic and fly!
Oh, hell, I'm NOT scared of any panty-waisted arabs...they're a piece of 
cake compared to my first wife...

BTW, I may not make it to Portland, but (seriously) the Silvertones are playing 
in Memphis in a coupla months, and we're gonna go to Graceland....(the biggest 
trailer park in the world)...I'm taking the daughter, cuz she's the only one 
who's never left the state...we have to show her how the other half (tennessee) 
lives...
CU later, 
Walt
