Max, those are the first generation of Fabspeed MaxFlow's. BTW, I tried that beer once in Montreal and can't stop drinking it. I love German/Holland/Czec beers but for some reason always have to have a LB in the fridge.

Adrienne, it's pretty easy to tell it's me, always a beer in the hand and smokes in the pocket, not to mention the extra hairy legs....

BTW, here is a picture of me and my one and only.

Thanks CP!!!! I'm kind of partial. I only hope it's at least 12 years, she's growing up so fast. She already has an agent, been on the cover of Dallas Child Magazine, and now just finished five episodes of Barney (I hate Barney). She has the attitude to go along with it. I actually feel sorry for the boys.

Default First day home.

Hello to everyone,
This is my first post and I thought it would be the right thread to post to. This is my baby that my wife bought me a couple of months ago. I had dreamed of owning a 911 since we first married and we finally did it. Last December I was diagnosed with Leukemia and I told my wife that if I made it through I was going to buy one. Well, I made it (minus 60 pounds and my hair, which is now back! Both...) and I love it. The photo of me and the car were taken a couple of weeks after getting out of the hospital. My wife actually had to test drive the car, I didn't have the strength to push in the clutch and she drove it for a couple of weeks before I could have the pleasure! She loves the car and doesn't mind taking it out to meet the girls for lunch. My 4 year old daughter calls it the race car.

Ed.

Welcome to RL.

Good for you re beating the cancer. You realize then how precious life is and how many projects are undone or unfinished. Life is good

Welcome Ed and congratulations. I've had one sister who was not as fortunate and another who was.

Ed,

A big hello and welcome. Wow, what an entrance.

You have a great car, a greater wife, and a greatest daughter.

I almost get killed in a car accident last year, so yes, given a second chance, life is specially sweet.

Enjoy every moment in great health.

CP
