Thanks for noticing guys

Its amazing how some people have the opposite opinion of me.

I appreciate those here that have shared so much car knowledge, and personal insights and jokes with me.
Everything I know specific to the TL- was found in these pages, and from picking members brains.
mmmmmmmm, delicious fresh picked human braaaaaaainzzzzs

Azine has some really cool people with way different backgrounds and lives.

When you learn to fly, everything has a strict list/order to be followed
Begining with pre-flight inspection, which can be several pages long before you're even ready to get in.
Start here- examine this inlet hole on the fuselage for the following things, then move to the left landing gear, Examine the-- -in the following order, this external sensor...
Each step in an exact order, so you dont miss any steps- overlook a loose wire, missing safety wire or cotter pin, or the ever popular---- bird attempting to nest...
Then each action has a checklist order- from getting to the runway- take off- speeds to be memorized- emergency procedures and speeds at rotate- engine failure at 100 feet at 500 feet- at altitude-

I apply that idea of learning and process linear thinking to most other things in life, so Toms way works great for Tom.
It doesnt always work for someone else-...
(now this is the bummer part) I am having to accept that what others do- doesnt affect me
their ways and parts choices are for them,,,,thats fine.

My Kingdom and its totalitarian ways, seems to extend as far as the walls of this room- anything past that and I enter the Land of -`Yes Dear`- of course you're right
Now Take out the garbage

Thats what I get for being the Colbert of Cars~
My apologies to any I offend with my less than tolerant or seemingly
inconsiderate approach.

Go ahead and add seafoam any way you want!

What lay in store for post number 10k--- do you think I am planning something~
Being careful not to waste any post today as I neared the big mark- need to get a pic of screen at 9999 to counter kris' odometer thread

Originally ~I heard~ (attempted to start rumor) that it was a trophy, then a mod told me was a pillow to curl up with.
Still waiting on those azine stickers!!....

Now its time to semi-retire and sit back,,, cut and paste some of my ideas and explanations expressed on these pages for my book series on ~10 things you need to know about...
This has all been one big experiment of social behavior, dont worry- the names will be changed to protect the less than innocent

Tom,

You are the biggest asset to this forum besides our beloved guru Kris.

I personally thank you for all the help you've given me, and all the countless amounts of help you give everyone else here.

Congrats! and Kudos!

Tom, just wanted to say a quick thanks for all your help on the forum. You always take the time out to make an accurate post to answer or help someone. You must have written about seafoam 2,000 posts, transmission failures 2,000 times, and the other 2,000 about the acura care number and extension. The other 4k were at your leisure LOL You are a very patient man and again thank you for helping make this site great. If it weren't for you and Kris (fsttms1) this site would be what it is.
