What was the topic of this thread again?

Herk, I dunno if you actually want any help from us, because I know you mentioned having some friends handy who are good with tools. I know I'm a girl, but I'm good at jumping on ratchets to loosen tight nuts, and I'm good at crawling under the trucks and taking things apart.
I don't want to force my help on you, but just know that I am available, and even if you don't want me to do any actual wrenching (though i would love to) I am always good for bringing drinks or anything you guys want. My mom could make cookies, too.
Just let me know. I am available any weekend before the 19th and it's not a horrible drive ... I've been itching for a roadtrip anyway.

No I can't go on the 19th. I'd like to. It's my birthday and I know for a fact that I'm getting a 5 figure check (in front of the decimal) to help distribute my Aunt's estate, plus it's fathers day and Dad is my best buddy and fish'in partner. It's a complicated weekend for me. Plus our annual air show, Aerospace America that weekend and the Blue Angels
are here this year so Dad and I are going. I always take my scanner to listen in on the airboss and the pilots. I can even get the good military AM frequencies with this old scanner. New ones have them blocked out.
Tracy, Todd needs to ORDER his lift first. j/k I'm game for another run somewhere.
