Man, it kills me that we don't live closer to each other. I'd have loved to be able to come give you guys a helping hand building that beast....

Not actual, physical work, mind you. More of a supervisory role whereas I could impart to you elements of my vast knowledge from the comfort of a LazyBoy installed in your garage whilst sucking on an ice-cold BitBurger and watching porn on a 40" (minimum) LED flatscreen. Yup, sure is a shame [-( [-(

its really, really a shame it didn't work out that way because i always need a hand. in a hand i mean someone not doing physical work, just supervising with there vast knowledge while sitting in a lazy boy recliner sipping on a beer watching porn on nothing smaller than a 40" led flat screen.
anyone closer that could give me a hand since peter cant is sure welcome

I finally understand why my van project has stalled.... If I'm the one in the Lazy Boy, nobody is actually doing the work..... #-o
