good thoughts for Smitty
Hello all...
Just updating all of you on Smitty's happenings. As of lately, he's been really busy so it may be a while before you hear from him. Things are going on there that he can't explain obviously, but I have a feeling getting very tense and worriesome...for him and I. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers that he remains safe. Thanks, Mrs. Smitty

Hang in there Susan! Our prayers are going out for the two of you.
Tell Smitty to keep laying low with the mutts and hope he stays out of site. Any word on the upgrade work on his car lately? I know he's getting a bunch of things done by Harald... Thanks for keeping us posted, and God bless!

No, no word on my step-child, I mean his car. I'm actually starting to miss it a little. I might even consider driving it when it (and Howard) comes back home...maybe if he converts it to an automatic.
Thanks for the good thoughts...some days are better than others, and lately they haven't been too good.

 Seriously...I'll keep this in mind. BYOP...

Susan,
As someone who spent one tour in Saudi recently, and a good part of that flying over Iraq and Iran, I can remember what it was like over there and we all hope and pray he comes home fat, sassy and in good health! Same for the pup! JoeA

As a Former Army guy during the first Gulf War, I can only imagine now, how difficult these times have to be for a spouse.
my family will keep you and Smitty as well as all the troops over there in our prayers.

Mrs. Smitty,
I can only imagine what you must be going through, just looking at the news we get every day. All the best, may the Porsche shield protect him (and you!)!

God speed, and before you know it you'll be complaining about how much time he's spending in the garage.
And convert it to an automatic? We can't let Smitty do that...however he is free to buy a 2nd 911 with a tiptronic or sportmatic transmission
