Well, well well, silly me ... considering Amir authored all my 3 likes to date, i figured he was also padding his own score ...

No no I'm not suggesting he is going that, I'm only suggesting if I could, I would have a hell of a lot of likes :)

It was new - $2341 if I remember correctly. It also went to ELP and Yes and Zappa. Then finally propelled me on through the first episodes of fame and glory to my first Telecom jobsites, Crawford Colorado (Joe Cocker lived there), Dallas PA , and on to Concord TN. I got a ticket in Iowa on the Interstate for going like 62 mph. Remember Drive 55?

Now, though I still drive a new '95 Maxima SE.

If I decide to do one last Wild West Tour, I'll drop by.

Wow Ray, legendary stuff! Not many can claim to have those stories! Man if I only had a Delorean I would be right there with you :) I'll see you when you get here!

A little story:

I was taking a flight a week or so after 9/11. Security was crazy and they were still hand searching people at the gate. They start boarding and given my frequent flier status and flying first class, I jump to be the first one to get on the flight. To my surprise and disappointment, the gate agent pushed me aside and told me to wait. And then proceed to board coach people first!!! Before I could blow my top, I noticed that every one of those coach people got pulled aside to have their luggage checked since the security agents had nothing to do. As soon as they all had someone they were checking, the gate agent asked me to board with a wink and I walked right on the airplane without being check.

Since then, I always try to make sure I am not the first off the airplane coming from international locations. That way, the custom people get busy with the first few people and I sale right through.

So Mike, it is perfectly fine to be the top guy. I saw you coming and let you go there. :D

But I'm not really the top guy, the top guy is the guy with most likes! :)
