Oh, and just to follow up...

On Saturday I go to this big shindig at my boss' house (pool party, food,
the works).

My wife pulls up to the curb to park, I get out of the curb, and...

"Ow, what's pinching my foot... OWWWW!!!"

Yep, stepped right into the middle of a nest of -fire ants-.

Man, it took a -lot- of alcohol to make that pain go away... my right foot
looks like
the Goodyear blimp :-(.

Tomorrow the machine shop is supposed to finish up the mill work on my TB. I
am starting
to wonder if getting my truck back is a good thing or a bad thing ;-).

Nah, good thing, gotta be...
