We were drafting up divorce papers to have you legally separated from Teh Box, on grounds of abandonment. :rolleyes:

I'll never abandon this place. Just wish I had the time to kill in here I used to have. We must meet for drinks sometime soon when I'm in Houston and I'll tell you all about it.

ACK! What happened to my signature line while I was gone?

The wording was a reference to the Cuba thread.

You are indeed correct.

Will go there after I'm done authoring today.

That's the good kind of awesome. Alternative fuel does not have to have politics attached to it; it's just good sense in many cases.

Yes, we have.

You missed the FT goes back in time debacle. The database went :rolleyes: in a particularly nasty fashion and almost all the posts from 2009 were gone. We were transported back to a freakish land where the Box had only 22,000 posts and Mackieman had just gotten married.

I was just starting to wonder what happened to you. Glad to hear you're good.

Sounds like a good story, so we hope. Have you been doing the grand tour of Bizarro Redneckistan? :)

I am finalizing the BBB DO over the next couple of weeks. you all need to get to austin.

I wondered what happend to you. I was expecting a post saying you were up for the NY Autoshow this week.

I know. My sarcasm tags must not have worked as I was slyly pointing out that China isn't a great country on the human rights front either and CO flies there. I mean, really, who in the country can avoid buying crap from China?

Phil Valentine. I read his book and he religiously avoids Chinese products.

We (Americans) have no one but ourselves to blame for that.
