Trevor,
   My wife made me a gift of this incredible 2006 tomb (sp) this evening for Christmas. I'm sure it will be well loved in this household and the world over. The pictures alone are magnificent, the story and text even better. This should start some interesting discussions on various sites. Congratulations!!!

Hi Jim
   Many thanks for your kind words - if I can bring a little happiness, etc etc.....(actually it was just a cheap excuse to get my hands on other peoples Cobras)
   Rick
   So tell us about your rock. Sounds fascinating!
   and a Happy New Year to all

jbottini

Trevor, you are extremely welcome!
   Rick, what kind of rock?
   Jan, you've got the best wife in the world...how'd she manage it?
   Jim

Mark IV

It's grey, rough and heavy. I think it used to reside in my garden. My wife told me it was "magic" it will make my hair grow back. I think I am being hosed..........
   
   Jim, they have computers in Pittsburgh?!?!
   
   Rick

jbottini

Rick, Yes they hace computers...coal powered though. If the rock works...can I buy or borrow it...better yet I'd like three of them. Jim

Jan, that would be 2nd best wife in world, Jim

No hair yet......but the papers on my desk don't blow around now.

Yeah, as far as wives go, I am very lucky, anyway, you can send a donation (a decent one) to the Shelby Children's Heart Foundation, then send them a part and he will autograph and then send a cert. of authenticity, so now the old stereo that came new with the car is getting tossed and the proper Autokraft signed plate is going back in !!!

   That's a very useful rock, Rick. Did it arrive through your study window?? My wife sent me a rock once, but her aim ain't so good either

Mark IV

Trevor,
   Just missed my head...she said that was how the "hair-raising" properties of the rock worked. I am not so sure myself.......

What is considered "decent"?
