    Good, I know what happened last time someone showed up that went by his middle name.

    Cory based on the little bit we've heard about the middle name thing, if you were planning on going, you might want to reconsider.

    Me too. I guess we're safe. Too bad the jeep bash is farther than I trust anything I own to make it.

    Yeah, but Billy dared me:




    Well, there aren't too many places to hide in St. George R) , you better find a good one. Maybe the storage place with the hillBilly wagon?

    St. George is bigger than you think. Maybe Damon, deputy, would let me park it at his place. ;)

    As of 2005, St. George's population is 475 people. Since 2000, it has had a population growth of 7.71 percent.

    Bigger than I think? R)

    Actual city boundary is huge, at least to me it is, bigger than what I think of when I think of St. George.

    I understand...I was surprised some other people that live ~5 miles from you have a St. George address. Plenty of places to hide...... Especially with all the trees in the river bottom.

    I did Jerry. The idle barely changed, but the vacuum dropped. This time I had the vacuum gauge on it.

    Umm, no, FI maybe. ;)

    Wiring harness is here, so that's next. Right now I'm fine tuning it. Well, working on getting to that. Right now I'm at my computer. R)
