Please don't make this "Good Bye", just "Ta Ta For Now" or something similarly open-ended. I recognize I have very large shoes to fill, inheriting the legacy of your famous, beautiful car, Russ. We'll take great care and if (heaven forbid) we ever part company, you get right of first refusal. I can't thank you enough for all you've done and for your allowing me to share in this wonderful experience!

(we now return this thread to its original topic) :oops:
