Space: You can't keep doing the double shifts for long. It will take you down. I did the samething when I was a lot younger. 10,12, or 16 hrs a day. Is very hard on your body & mind. Can't do all that without some kind of side affects. You have to slow down a bit before it all catchs up with you. Listen to one that did the same thing trying to get a head in life. End up taking two steps back.. Slow down bud

I was happy that Chevrolet called about my car , but then quickly turns to not so happy They are waiting on a call back from the GM rep about what to do. From what I understand there is a piece of foam in there around the wheel well. It is retaining water and rusting from the inside out. I told him it would be nice to have a rental car, He is going to get back with me on that. originally a 4 day job, now on the 8th day and uncertain when I will get her back. On a good note, it appears they are trying to fix it right. I will survive.
Rick-I hate head colds and those darn wives always giving you something!

Jerry thats got to be frustrating, but atleast the fix isn't costing you personally.

Seattle mike happy birthday! You should go to the Coastal Kitchen some day. My cousin is an evening/afternoon chef there.

Morning all, 50 degrees here today. Just got inside from installing my cassette radio and i'm heading out to get an adapter.

Hi Jerry, tell the dealer that everyone on the MCF thinks that they should give you a rental until your Monte is repaired properly...It was not your mistake 4-Sure...Good Luck
========================================
Hi `Keane, I hope your install was E.Z. & that you have some great sounds to enjoy as you drive your Monte...

Wish you & Member's a Great new Day of Life ~> EnJoy...
I must fade `out, but will return to read everyone's words & thoughts...Peace/Out from `Space

Good afternoon friends! Lunch time at the office. Well looks like we are zeroing in on the New car for wifey 2012 Buick Lacross option package #2 (has heated stearing wheel). Will post pics once we acually close the deal and take delivery. Wife needs to decide on colors (leaning to diamond white it is a metalic tricoat white) the 04 monte will become my DD and Maynard goes out to pasture.
