Not that I am aware.
I am still 29, trying to catch up to you all. And, I agree with Joe, I need a cobra fix.

Tru,
You need to get that Cobra out and drive it. You aren't the only one that needs a Cobra fix.

Tru,
Latest weather report. It is sprinkling right now and we are supposed to have showers all weekend and heavy rain Monday. And they said that March was the wettest we have had since they started keeping records.
And to really make it better, I mowed most of the day yesterday so now I can do it all over again as soon as the rain stops.
Monday I have to go to the dentist so I don't care if it rains as that ruins the day anyway.

Okay - okay, I'll admit to being 30.
Yes Ron, you are so right. I need to crawl under her belly and install a new speedo o'ring. Then wash it down and have the rear feed line replaced.
Then fire it up and find a rfew unsuspecting corvetts that seem to feel they have something.
[insert vilinious laugh here]
Yessssssss...!

Well this morning is my Dental appointment and it is for everything. I thought the prices were high here until I talked to my cousin in Arkansas yesterday. Just a cleaning here is $74 and he said his last one back there was $95. But I will be happy when it is over and I am back home and can forget it for another 6 months.
Also it is raining lightly this morning, but the forecast shows sun for the next two days.

Hey everyone. We have had more storms here. It seems one after the other for weeks now.
The truck has well over $3,000 in damage now and the STS Cadillac is a total loss. I am working with the adjustor's because we don't want to write off the car. It is just too mechanically sound to put in a salvage yard, and I do not want to spend the money for a new one.
What a mess!

That sucks Steve. We were lucky and have been spared the Hail that some got.

My Dentist Personally cleaned my teeth last time and asked me if my teeth are always this clean? and just then the Dental Hygienist came in and ask if my teeth were as clean as always.
I ask if I get a discount for clean teeth? they just laughed. I was in the chair for 15 minutes.

Mike,
I really like the hygienist my dentist has clean mine. She takes about 15 minutes and has a great set of boobs for me to watch while she bends over me and talks to me. Her I enjoy. It is going into the dentist's exam room and having him work on my teeth that I don't like. Next week won't be to bad though as it should only take about 10 minutes and I won't have to have a shot of novocaine.

The last 2 days have been a little exciting in the DFW area for April.
Monday we had 15 tornadoes and yesterday we had 10.
The Tornado Season doesn't get real serious here until May & June.

Fred,
Yes, here in our community there are some autos that have holes and tears in the sheet metal from the hail damage. The Hardy Board on the homes in some places has holes you can stick your fist through.
The houses across the street got pulverized and I found out yesterday that the ones on the street behind us got it bad as well. Our house did not get any damage at all to speak of. The one next door sits higher on the lot and has a higher roof, so it blocked most of the side blowing hail.
The cars on the other had got beat up. They are actually not covered in really big dents but rather hundreds of thousands of small ones. There are a couple that I cannot cover with the palm of my hand but most you can cover with dimes.
We really got lucky as far as the real damage. Some people have had to move out of the houses. The funny thing is the storm chasers (contractors) in the community. We have had them from as far away as Denver and Phoenix.
I did talk to a PDR guy and he said the car could be fixed for the most part. So I am still working with the Insurance company to not total it. I really don't want to go that route. I know most have told me to let it go but the car is paid for and still runs really nice. It puts us in a little dilemma for sure.
I will definitely fix the truck. They allowed for a new hood and new roof on the truck, but I don't want them cutting the roof off the truck so I will probably live with the ones the can't PDR out. It is just that there are so damn many of them. Over a 12" x 12" area there are several hundred dents.

You guys down there are really getting hammered. I just read the latest report on all of the tornadoes and people killed. And in Missouri they have levies breaking and flooding. In one place yesterday they got over 15 inches of rain in a short time.
Steve,
I hope that everything works our well for you and the vehicles. Holes in the side of the houses big enough to stick your fist through. Just think if that hail had hit a person in the head.
Fred,
I hope that you never had any damage. I am sure that you had your bike inside.
Ron
