Score!!

Right on - you're the best, TyBoo!

Your nerd credits are climbing. You've now got enough for an 80GB hard drive, if you need one...

Score!!

Hey, Da Nag, you're in the bag.
Should I take it to Les, or the SBS?

Da Nag · Posted: Fri Dec 05, 2003 12:53 pm Post subject:

Wow.

To the Les shop would be fine. Sounds like he'll have a place to stow them real soon.

What a pal. I owe you big time now.

For those wondering what all the hubub is about, I bought some very cool Vector Sports adjustable rod holders quite a while back on eBay. Pic below:

Couldn't bring myself to drill more holes in Da Old Da Nag, particularly when I realized they could attach to my Scotty downrigger mounts if I had an adaptor for the base plate. Which is what our resident metal man just created above...

You get a heck of a bargin on the adapter plates. I got called into work last night, and it took about an hour to finish the machine repair. Then I waited three hours while the operators set it up and made sure it would run. So, I had the shop to myself, overtime, and a call time to boot. Plus, I get the day off today. Such a deal.

I'll take the bag of goodies up north tomorrow. My dad emailed me and said he would be here about 1:00 today since I am home. He says he has a surprise for me. I'm betting he drives up in a brand new Dodge diesel. It better be a blue one.

Yep, a brand new Dodge 3500.... with dualies. Mr. Green

TyBoo · Posted: Fri Dec 05, 2003 2:01 pm Post subject:

If he got dualies, he would never bring it here after the ration he gave me. "Holy S...! You're towing less than 10,000 pounds! All you get with dual wheels is two more tires to buy!"

He has a 1999 Dodge half ton, with all of 13,000 miles on it. He has been wanting a 3/4 Diesel for a couple years, and when he heard how much quieter they are this year, he couldn't stand it anymore. He's been shopping.

Yep. It's another Dodge diesel. Dad always did want to grow up and be just like me. Wrong color, though.

How come he doesn't have a C-Dory to go with that big Dodge?

Mike,

Latest - 33 mph at 4 a.m. Sat. and diminishing after that. Looks like a winner by noon or so.

Perfect! Thanks. When you come down there, hows about bringing that fancy new digital camera in case I forget to take pictures of a certain red CD 22.

Sawdust · Posted: Fri Dec 05, 2003 7:29 pm Post subject:

Camera and pro operator will be there. And your ETA is?

I'm guessing by 11:00. We have one stop to make for coffee and a gizmo delivery.
