Default Anyone remember me?

Been a LONG-*** time since I posted here. If anyone is still around that remembers or cares, let me know.

And, oh, sold the Mustang last February. Sad day indeed.

Nice to hear from ya. Not much people come on here anymore. Mostly because they don't have mustangs. Lol. I sold my mustang about a month ago. Been lurking on the JK wrangler forums..

Yeah it's pretty slow around here these days.

So what are you driving now that the Mustang is gone?

*edit I guess I was too slow on the keyboard lol

Having some "car" changes around here that have been a bit nutty and will continue. My employer put me back into a company car a year and a half ago, and now just found out I could be losing it due to some policy changes. Not sure if they will be actually giving me the car, or putting me on an allowance....hard to say and will know in a few weeks. My wife is also getting a company car in January. My co car is just a Ford Escape, but hey a free car is a free car and they pay for everythihng. Not sure what my wife will end up with, or perhaps an allowance. She is currently in a Pacfica.

The YJ is a 1999 Sahara. White and with a painted to match white hard top. 2 door, of course, as that's all they had back then and it what I prefer. I went with an older one so I could sell it fast and keep my investment.

I could not use it for long as a DD and if I end up losing the company car, I will possibly upgrade to 2012 so I can still tow. We currently use the Pacifica to tow and with that car up in the air, who knows. I also have a 14 year old who will be driving next year, and the older YJ would be good for her.

So, stay tuned.....

You guys are all pretty funny!....So, in short.....just for us old-folks (and by that, I mean the ones that were here since Day 1...or close to it)....what the heck have you all been up to?

I'll start.....

Busy with work and family. Helping out as usual with community theater and at the local highschool. Just got done doing "Christmas Carol" and I was running the flying equipment. I am Stage Captain for "Twas the Night Before Christmas" starting in a few weeks.

I have been busy traveling all over the world. Last Fall I was working in Siberia and the UK.....this summer working in Australia. Company is in the middle of a $8B aquisition so work has been "interesting" to say the least.

I resent that, douchebag.

And.. I went back to school majoring in Computer Science, not very far along yet, since right after highschool I went into a trade.
