HIjack On!
Yup- the name sort of came out of knowhere, and just "feels" right- sounds like an old lady who doesn't like to get up in the morning and take her pills. It'll be appropriate until I make some progress on her "restification."
-Thanks again to Jim and Chrisco for the help with the soft-top and pully installation today.
Hijack off.

I'd have to second Rob's response. Wasn't there a movie called "Matilda"? With some young girl in it?
You are most welcome with the help. Just don't go getting custom license plates... :pat:

Jim, I don't know if I'd talk about movies with young girls in it in a public forum like this, didn't hear about the "Candyman" sting operation a while back?
Yeah, it was strange to see you too Kevin. I saw Ducky about a month back on the highway too. I got the impression you were surprised to see me with the street tires on the 4runner. I gotta start keeping the CB antenna on, I can't seem to go anywhere without running into you guys. Makes me wonder if I'm being followed, and explains that small flashing red light in my bathroom ceiling vent.

I could probably arrange for a local trip for you guys to my property in Bonney Lake, but a stock Cherokee would spend all day on the back of a strap...
Last Saturday, 6 rigs got through about 1/2 mile of the course in 4 hours.

There were a couple "Matilda"'s, but this is probably the one that most folke remember... Danny DeVito and Mara Wilson:

David... I'd say that you really need to get out.

I got this from Mark's link, though I'm not sure if it applies to my Matilda:
"Rated PG for elements of exaggerated meanness and ridicule, and for some mild language."
I think I'll be using more than "mild language" when working on it.

I'm in Auburn and would love to meet for dinner but would rather go wheelin'. I just lifted my truck and will be taking it out this weekend. I could always leave work early and go wheelin'
Evans Creek is close.

Am I going to throw a wrench into the works if I request Tuesday night instead of Thursday? I may already have plans for Thurday, but I know Tuesday will be open. Also, mexican would be fine if nobody has issues with Azteca.
And David, Matilda is a perfectly suitable name for an old frumpy LC, just don't rev up the V8 and give away the surprise.
Also, I won't need a name tag. I'm 7'1", 125 pounds, have a bright green mohawk, a tatoo of a butterfly covering my entire face, and am missing all but two teeth. Can't miss me...
Of course, if you believe I could survive around here looking like that, you've never been to this little slice of redneck heaven we call Maine.

I dunno that we'll find a date that we can all get to one place at a time.
It took about an hour of "realtime" email one day to come up with a date 3 weeks in the future to try to get the company WATTORA/YT contingent to lunch at work on the same day!!! The logistics of catching everyone on the thread thus far is quite the task.
Given that David was the first one to actually propose a date/time/location, then I nominate him as "trail master" and let him _set_ the date/time/location. Those that can will, those that can't won't.
