Well i finally did it, pulled the little black box out of hiding and took the leap. I feel pretty good about it so that says something huh. She wanted to go see all of her relatives so we took the car- man what a blast!

I just talked to you this morning and you said nothing...bad man! You'll hear that a lot once you are married.
Congrats really, 34 years and counting here.

Congrats Dan. The last time my wife helped bleed the brakes, she couldn't understand why the pedal kept going to the floor. Turns out she was pressing the gas pedal! Bought a Motive Power Bleeder the next day.

Again, congratulations!

Congratulations Dan! Being a one of the species, I can honestly say it is fun to be a girlfriend of a track guy. Just don't tell her right away that she is one of two girlfriends . At least I know you probably waited until the second date..... unlike Psuice
