Well I am glad you are not travelling into a hurricane. Enjoy your trip!!
Lived in NC for several years. Atlantic beach is Wilmington and it has too many broken shells and garbage in the water but a few miles South of that is a beach called Kure Beach..my favorite beach!!!!!! There is a little bar just off the pier in Kure Beach called Bud & Joe's. One of the friendliest places you will ever visit!

Hey BBMike, hopefully you get out for some surfing and fun in the sun. Dang I have to make it down there for a launch one of these days. I was offered to go with a friend and her family to Florida for two weeks and they left yesterday but I just couldn't swing it, would have cost $200 for the two weeks for my lodging as they are renting a house, so it was really inexpensive but just couldn't pull everything together in order to make it happen.

Talking >Hi 2 U reading this<



Hi `Ken, that's a good looking Pontiac 4-Sure. I like the silver with dark tint + I like the style rims that are on it now. Look 4ward to seeing `it with you new ones. Wish you & family safe & trouble-free miles.

That's a super price for 2wks rental. I hope you get down to see a launch, but there's a lot of anticipation 2 see it launch & it just doesn't last very long. (I'm happy there's youtube that does a great job of capturing the launch) I got a better view of the launch watching the vid then I did seeing it in person I must admit that I do love the sound of the power of the rockets & the earth shaking (lol).

Presently I'm on standby call & it's hard to do anything, but work on company reports. (I'm not good @ it > Space was) + he gets along better with company people. I'm just a freak'in crank operator (lol).
I'm not a company Ambassador . I am thankful 2 be getting a pay check, but I'd prefer being @ the docks working.
=================================
Hi `Barbara, how's your day going ? I've read a few of your prior racing post & it sounds like you are still having a blast @ the track.
You do seem to be able to extract the best from your days/life.

I did learn that the Boss will be here Next week & I hope to get a report on `Space I'm hoping/praying 4 good news.

OK, lets all just sit here & wait in anticipation for `Ken to post his updated pictures of his new ride with new rims

Wish `all a super eve & weekend...Don't 4-get 2 Enjoy (What `if ?) Really ?
Oh, is it Party time yet ?

p.s. Don't watch the News unless U want to be or get depressed...It's all SAD : (

Yes I am up that early every day. I hit the ground running. You know the story about the Gazelle and The Lion on the Serengeti don't ya?


Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up, It knows it must eat and run faster than the fastest lion or it will be killed. Every morning, the lion wakes up, It knows it must outrun the slowest gazelle or it will starve to death.
It doesn't matter whether you are a lion or a gazelle. When the sun comes up, you'd better be running.


When your feet hit the floor running in the morning what motivates you?


Fear or a sense of mission?
