Har, har, har...I wish that was the case, although my boss and wife might disagree and say that I might as well retire to the garage. I don't need much sleep and am pretty good at planning and making sure I have what's needed to keep moving forward. My Pal Dave is a big help and keeps me from getting lazy, and I've also got several more projects lined up that I can't wait to start and that's always a great incentive. So much to do and so little time...

Thanks for your kind comments. I'll probably bring it to the Nat's if I can figure out a good way to get two cars there. I don't think, however, the Gold Car would do that well at that venue. The Nat's is mainly a beauty contest and this old girl is no beauty. She's more like a 37 year old divorcee that has a few wrinkles, a little gray hair, and some blemishes and bumps, but deep down inside that experience counts for something. Pop her hood, and get on her, and she'll give a ride that you won't forget. Sometimes the beauty queens think just showing up and looking good is enough.

Bob has a special watch that gives him 28 hours in a day - that gives him more than one extra day in the week. That's how he does it.
Actually it's the bourbon that makes time expand, but a time machine watch would be a nice addition. We get something like that starting next weekend when the time changes and we get an extra hour of daylight.
