Another rant: Just shoot me now



Nah Pat, that's alright, Ill stay up here. If I moved down there I'd just 
complain about the heat and dust and cows and oil wells and big hats and 
people that take all day to finish a sentence. So I'd never be happy.  I may 
change my tune when I snap a bunch of plastic stuff on the Cabby grille 
tonight putting the headlight in. But for now I'm good.
Check back tomorrow, and acre and a half within spitting range of all those 
MkIs can't be all bad. And I'm quite a fan of southern BBQ...
Cathy
