Ours is on the 22nd as well.
I actually agreed to the day at D-land -- she knows how much I prefer not to be near that place. We have a year-pass that my wife won at work -- so I felt that we should take advantage of them.

....and I was a good guy -- I delivered her flowers and a card at her work -- now I have to remind her about those Rush concert tickets we chatted about last week.....

My wife is great too! She just bought me the new Callaway FT-I driver for Father's Day! She said she saw that I was struggling with my current one (Taylor Made R540) after her golf lesson this last weekend and had heard me talk about it. So, a couple days later I get it custom fit & it turns out to already have added 30+ yards to my drives!

My wife doesn't care about my Porsche or anything that has to do with it! Her loss!

funny timing on this post, My 9th anniversary was on the 21st, and we BOTH forgot until about halfway through the morning! (I remembered first, thank goodness!). We have a great relationship though, and had a fun evening when some neighbors offered to babysit on short notice. My wife blamed her forgetfulness on the fact that she is six months pregnant. I didn't have as good of an excuse.

My wife and I have been married for 13 years. I have been trying to convince her that a 911 is a practical car and that I need one since before we were married. Finally, last December, she turned 40. I decided that I would take the opportunity and have her midlife crisis, by buying the 996. This was fine until it needed the new mill. In her words - happy father's day.

Hey spaceman-spiff, I love your Avatar - I sorely miss Calvin & Hobbes.

Happy Anniversary Dutchie!

I had to keep quiet after she was here to pick up the goodies. Hope you enjoyed unwrapping that box!

Let me know if you have any questions on the console/shifter install. Pretty straightforward, or the guys here in town can do it too.

Your wife is a keeper. Always a pleasure to get her calls.

Great to hear about the wives, mine loves the car, and actually told me that I needed to have one! My birthday is next week (always nice to have it on/around 3 day weekend every year) and she is getting me some driving shoes that I have wanted - hope they fit my fred flintsone feet.

Dell,

Tim,

That hurts... I thought we had build up a level of trust over the last year... remember, I'm crazy pic man (sorry not the pretty girls closing hood mod kind of pics) with my educaional series on 'hardwiring passport for dummies', etc, etc.

Won't do the step by step for this project though... B&M did a pretty good job in their manual it looks like
