If they sky even smells of rain... I drive my truck...and, so far, I've been about 90% accurate. It DID rain today, albiet, a tid-bit...but still!!! And the forcast is for rain for the entire week.

My baby is far to clean to risk this rain, and I still have my worn s02's on her (althought new ones are in the garage).

I just don't want to get it wet...what more can I say?? I'm sure Sondra will have some smart remark :-)

Wimp!

I rode my motorcycle around the lake on Sunday, and to Marble Falls yesterday. And I'd much rather risk getting my car dirty than get caught in a downpour on my bike!

Nonetheless, I'm the same way about trying to keep my S2K dry. I doubt it'll get much action this week.

Was John David in town this past week? That could explain why...

I did manage to drive the car tonight for all of 15 minutes.... :sigh:.


BTW after 1.5 weeks, the car started up, the windows worked, shifted at redline, no grind... over all happy car.

I started to write a nasty post about how great the weather is here in San Diego, then I realized I don't want you to know. It's already overcrowded here as it is!

Hope things dry out for you soon.

Aaron, come on now. You wash your car so often that it should not matter if it gets a few sprinkles on it. MIne is filthy from last week but I have had my top down everyday since last Friday and it has been fine.

Get out there and enjoy this cool weather.

I just saw on the news last night that there was some major flooding in the DFW area. Hope stuff like that doesn't happen to you guys this time in Houston or in Austin.

Oh yeah, Aaron, I'm starting to forget what rain is like. Haven't seen anything like that for months now
