Yeah, buddy. We have it in writing...or typing frantically at the keyboard at least :cheers:

I'll have a roll of duct tape, wire coat hanger, cardboard toilet paper roll, and RTV ready in case you have an emergency to deal with again this year...yeah, there'll likely be an empty beer can laying around too in case you need to fashion something from it.

Glad you can make it Colin! Plan on spending Monday with me...may only need you for a half day, but we can drink away the rest sitting by the river :drunken:

Maybe can you fit in Iowa there somehow? I have no Astro. There are no Astros on my street. I will be joyful. :colors:

Well. . . that is the emergency engine/transaxle/front suspension overhaul parts list, so we're good. I got the Tristessa Commemorative Head Gasket Forming Dies Clothes Pins from last summer.

I'd like to visit before then. I am hatching a plan to rescue my BMW from the clutches of the upstate NY winter, and bring it down to Austin. You'd be welcome to ride along. If your three jobs would not allow such a thing, well, I can stop by on my way down. This would be mid-March.
