No way the CT I can't believe it. In fact being the proud owner of an OB I resent the T part of the code. Maybe it should be changed to CG for copper Goddess

Cassisrot/brown S4 on ebay right now. Grrrrrr. It's in socal. I just bought a 86.5 from Roger. Anyone want to buy the red/blk 86.5 from me? Danny, John, Sean, Bueller, anyone? It'll have S4 painted wing, S4 rear quarter trim, all body work and paint completed, fully detailed with new tires and a new inspection. Mebee $3k-ish?

I wonder if Ed would deliver a S4 for me, hmmmmmm.

Ed's got a lot of work travel in the near future....but he'd certainly be happy to do a several week test drive for you. Can't rush into these, after all!

This was a corporate/private concert for about 1000 people. I'm sure they didn't come cheap, but I always wondered how bands rose to these kind of occasions. They played their asses off, in my opinion! I saw them last in 1975, so it was kinda good to see both they and I are still kicking reaonably well!!

Well, all you DFW guys are out at breakfast right now, and I was supposed to be there. Instead here I am all the way in Austin, working overtime on a Saturday. Argh. Oh well, I'm planning on going up the weekend of 20-22 to work on the car, maybe if you guys want to grab a beer or something then I can do that.

Well... after sorting out most of Zack's civil issues -drove thru a downtown 8 story bldg. in the process of a remodel- doing the insurance dance -trashed the new Forenza- and E-posting the taxes ...
Finally got to sip a brewski or so -free beer, GO Steelers!- then did the stupid with the Weissach.
Jacked 'Pattycakes' up, put her on stands. Did the same with 'Snowball' the white 81'.
Pulled all eight wheels, cleaned them, the wheel wells, and anything within reach.
Pulled the calipers off the 81', removed the pads -gonna swap them to the Weissach (not).
Cleaned the 81's calipers, inspected the rotors. AND THEN! Prepared to remove the 82's pads, clean/lube the caliper and replace with the virtually new 81 pads.
Alas, *** - umption met reality and I immediately realized the 81/82 pads ARE NOT interchangeable.
Should have at least looked in the 928 catalog ... Oh, the shame.
Oh well, reversed the process and wash/waxed 'Pattycakes'.
More Steeler Beer please.
