And no more kids! 4 is enough!
Nice to see positive Pontiac press.

Try 7 kids Jack! ages from 11-40. ONLY sort of regret was not spacing them closer... My oldest grandchild was born 3 weeks after my youngest child...who came 15.5 years after what we thought was our last one! 5 Grand kids with 2 more coming soon...

You will have no problem with it, you've got a lot of great talent in your corner. I say three weekends and you'll be pretty doggone close.

TQ

Nice write-up Lil Jack. More positive ink for the Indian. I normally don't jump on this kind of stuff, but I did read the Fulper comment. I just don't understand it. Did he miss the memo that PONTIAC IS OUT OF BUSINESS!! All parts on ALL Pontiac race cars are aftermarket unless they are NOS. How many of those parts are left and how many races would anyone win today with them? I am just guessing here but I would be willing to bet Mr. Fulpers Super Stock car isn't running an 041 cam and a plastic timing gear. OK, I am done with that. Congrats again on the article.

Fractures didnt occur till my youngest was almost 4. Was in excellent shape prior... 10 inches taller 6" wider at the shoulder... Very active and fit. Cancer I had(multiple myeloma a blood cancer in same category as leukemia) affects the normal bone cell replacement making them get sponge-like and fragile... By time I got properly diagnosed I'd fractured my back a few times. Cancer has been in check for several years now and bone density is like it should be...just bones healed wrong leavin my back bent and rib cage distorted. At my age(60) not worth risky surgery to look "pretty" again and maybe get half my lost height back. No promise of less discomfort either. Its been an amazing 7 years... Doin things I thought I'd never be able to do again etc..



BTW cancer had no effect on the plumbing... Was ready to play even in severe pain. Still armed and dangerous. Wife wasnt thrilled havin our last one at 45 and took care of that after delivery. (fwiw my oldest isnt hers)

Sorry for a bit TMI

Brake horsepower
Fuel milage of grocery getter
Income tax refund
And size of there

And congrats Mr. Jack
