Guess I won't be there guys. I have to go down to Morrie's Masserati this afternoon for a job interview (even though I'm gonna turn it down), and my brother needs a babysitter. Since my brother will be painting my car, I kind of feel compelled to do it for him. I love babysitting my niece anyway!!
Good news anyway guys...My car should go for media blasting the week of the 21st. Just waiting for a side job check, and I'll have to order some rocker sections when it goes. I will probobly just take some money from savings to get it home a little faster. I'll try to get some more pictures soon.

Yeah, my mom has taught me very well on controling my finances. It's how I was able to buy my truck at 17.
I'm back already. I have this job in the bag...They are trying really hard to get me there, but their pay is WAY short. The job would be fun though, and it would have me driving Maseratis on a daily basis and I would get the chance to drive a Ferrari or Lamboghini. I just can't take that king of pay cut right now, and it would be atleast another 6 months or more before I would back where I am at now.
I told them that I am going to stay at Abra for a few more weeks, atleast so I can get my car painted. Then if they get another opportunity with better pay, to give me a call.
I'm also going to order some business cards here pretty soon for Detailing. I think I found a place that I can do them and it would be great extra cash.

Well, We had a great time tonight. There were 4 of us total. Me, Jim, Paul and Ben. Ben drove Jim's old LeBaron convertible. He did a heck of a lot of work to it. It was a 2.5 TI auto. Now it's an intercooled, 2.5 5 speed car. He also changed the k-member to an 89 style. I don't remember everything he did. He did the same thing a while back with his 89 GTC convert. And I complain about having to put a clutch in my car. 
We bowled three games. The young guys did the best. I couldn't break 100 yet my shoes fit perfectly and slid well, the ball holes were like they were made for me and I felt good. I'm pathedic. Jim did well for using his left hand. He's right handed. He even got two strikes in a row in the tenth frame on one game. I think he went X X 9 Not bad. I got a lot of pictures, but I'm sure once I look at them, they won't be that great. I never could get good indoor pictures with a digital. It was dark outside also.
But, all and all, it was a good time.
Jim, send me some, or all the pictures you got.

Well I went to my Aunt's Fiance's birthday this afternoon, just to make an appearance, and I got a call from my brother that they weren't going, and they were staying in tonight. So I didn't have to babysit. I hung out with family, and on the way home it was about 8:30, and I thought about stopping by but I figured everyone would have been gone by then.
Glad to hear all was well anyway.
Think about it this way Bob! Score of 100 is 10 pins per frame!! lol

For a second there, you made me feel good. Then I remembered, I didn't reach that plato.
Next time, check to see if we're still there. There's been so many times that we've stayed really late. This was one of them! In fact, Robin from Long Prairie has showed up about 1 1/2 late for a meeting. He drove 100+ miles also and didn't have another reason to be in the cities!  He knew we'd still be there.

We saw quite a few of these. We knew we were doing a lot better. This WAS, an improvement.

This was one of Pauls favorite things to do with the 1st ball. He works best under pressure.

I've been using this photo program that came with a scanner for 10 years now. Prehistoric. I looked at a lightened picture just to see what it would look like, since it was so dark and stumbled on the lighter circle thing. I never knew that could be done. I wasn't sure what your reaction would be.
