His blood pressure is up a little. Still not breathing on his own. Just a waiting game now.
Ethan, sorry to hear about your father in law. Whenever life has ever been unfair in any manner, I figure it is there for a reason. I will keep your family/in-laws in my meditations.
On a different note, I saw Doug at work the other day...he looked pretty sad for some reason. Pretty mellowed out even during a couple meetings. I doubt he remembered me but its all good.
Hey, anyone wanna buy stuff off my accord v6 that can fit your CL/TL's? I have headers (OBX SS) and Greddy MX dual exhaust that I need to swap for stock exhaust. I also have an RS Akimoto intake I need to get rid of too.

Anyway, we played from 9am to 1pm . . . by the 3rd round I was Rambo with an taking people out . . . storming the fort . . . getting behing enemy lines twice . . . . pinning done the left flank twice . . . a couple of forced surrenders and one Recon kill . . . snuck up on their left flank through the tall weeds . . they never saw me coming . . . the guy about his pants when I jumped up beside him.
My gun really sucked though . . . the rental guns here were whimpy . . nothing like the guns I had in Australia.

And it'll cost you $100+ to swap them out? So it wouldn't be worth your time to do it . . . unless you needed them off to sell/trade it in. If so, I might do the swap for you if you sell me the OBX for a great price . . .
I would say $100, but I don't know if that is fair based on what you paid for them, but if that works for you, I'll give you $100, plus swap them out . . . with some help.

I need to run to Intercrew anyway and talk to Phillip. I've known him for quite some time and he was the one who installed the headers for me. I will ask him how much it will cost for him to put my old manifold back in and install my headers on your car. If I can make some money for gas and food, I'm game... and then $100 would be more than reasonable. I will let you know soon enough.
edit: I still need to wait for a semi-sunny day to clean my car and take pics of my engine bay. Hopefully it will be some time this week.

All I got to say is welcome to the club . . . now they know how we feel watching all those none calls when Dirk is getting hammered . . . or when a foul is called on Bradley or Dampier and the replay shows they didn't even touch the other player . . . . . so he's to you Van Gundy and the Rockets
