You're already doing it. Visit g838.org. Maybe spend some quality time in the technical section learning more about your truck?

You seem to have a hangup on that subject. That can get you in a LOT of trouble nowadays!

Yeah, not worth it.
Just looking for ideas I have not thought of. Going to the GYM a lot has helped. :!:

I wish I could still do the gym! I still weight the same as I did in my 20's at 210 but the days of 6% body fat are long gone! :roll:

Y'all got snow now. So go make some snow angels. Will take care of your 'mistress' problem as well.
