The only thing I shovel Richard is what Beth has to deal with, I never have to worry about too much snow for me to get stuck, Rickie don't get stuck

Yesterday brother told me the company sold the GT40. Didn't even know they had a GT40. Said it was a kit car. Also said he turned down an offer on the all original 57 T-bird. Told him it was going to be a while before those get back up to over 100K. They also still have the Super Snake Convertible.

He keeps telling me I need to cash out on the 928 GTS. Especially since I have a nice SUV now. Told him that even though the GTS is worth more than what I have in it, I did not buy it for an investment, I bought it to enjoy it.

WooHoo! Only got down to 2 degrees last night. High of close to 30 today with lots of sun.

The weather folk tell us that we are most likely out of the severe cold temps at this point. C'mon spring!!

Happy Friday!!

Good Morning folks.

The sun is out again and it is supposed to get into the 50s today. There are 70s in the 7 day forecast.

Steve's Mum passed away last Sunday, he went home and arrived on Saturday, in time to see her and say goodbye. Her funeral service was 1.30 am our time this morning, so I was up late talking to him. Very sad time for the family back home.

I think Steve will be back on the 15th. So I will have to send the big midget out to clear the snow in front of the Durango, or maybe I won't even bother, it shouldn't have any trouble after all it is a big m..f.ing car

Please offer Steve condolences for us. It is tough to loose a parent.

ah ha ha ha ha. Microsoft told consultants they are having problems because they are trying to use 2010 instead of the recommended 2013 to migrate from 2007 to Office 365 with. I think our consultants are re-purposed weathermen or politicians. Don't make waves Richard.

thanks guys, will pass your thoughts on. We have been talking a lot by phone to keep him feeling positive, but sometimes its not the loss its the politics of the family that makes it harder to deal with. Not that they are that bad, its just one that needs a good slap from his now deceased Mother!! Maybe I should go over and take over that role!!

I hear ya on the family crap Charmaine. We are dealing with that with my grandmother. She needs full time care and my aunts won't admit and put her in a home. My parents can't provide the care she needs and my aunts aren't willing too. They are worried that she won't be happy and that she can't take her dog. If I was home I would make the dog go away. She has fallen at least twice in the last week, and is mentally slipping. My aunts won't listen to my dad since he is baby brother and my mom doesn't want to speak up and piss them off. I'm afraid I'm going to have to piss them off. I know grandma won't be happy in a home, but I also don't want to find out she fell and laid somewhere for hours bleeding to death alone.
