I am not quite dead yet...


Well, the theater is in pieces...

The house has been sold...

Lots of changes but I am still alive for those of you that remember me.

The housing market is nuts in Northern California. I sold my house in 4 hours and had 4 offers I placed on other properties fall through.

So, life has been changing for me. I still collect DVDs although much slower. Have only about a 1000 right now. I still play with my corvette when I can.




Just wanted to stop in and say "hi" to everyone.

Nice Z06. Hopefully that will be my next car. I might just have to settle for a regular vette. I tried to bring up your homepage but it didn't work. Have you ever taken the vette to the drag strip?

Back window looks wrong for a Z06, and I don't see any brake vents, just wheels. The pictures are a wee bit small, though.

Nice to know some of the "old school" is still kicking around.

"Have only about a 1000 right now." It must be tough with so few

Good to hear you're still OK

Hey All!

Yup, standard coupe but she has a few modifications. A Z06 will not keep up with her after my next trip to the speed shop.

Rob - I will e-mail ya bro.



I did nothing...I did absolutely nothing and it was everything I thought it could be..

Crawdaddy!!!!


The vette is great although it has been using its warranty plenty. Small things mostly, except for the motor needing new rings and a crankshaft.

At 5k miles it started burning more oil than I care to talk about.

I love the car and GM extended the warranty for free to give me more of a warm fuzzy.

Hope all is well with you!

Good to see you back over here Chris. I'm also a Vette owner and see you on the Corvetteforum also. My home theater has definitely taken a back seat to my Vette lately. Here's a picture of my 2000 convertible.

Chris, I know the feeling. I wish the market here was as hot as where you are. Change is good.

Someday I'll have a '73 Vette... but not today.

BTW, one of you Vette fans must know which year had the biggest front wheel flares? That would be styling...

Good to see you back.
