Thanks! Sure am glad I'm legal.

Well, I got the car in early August of 2004... so I was 15. This August I will have had the car for 3 years.

The first year was spent on getting it going... as you can see in WSFA.

Luckily I had the car running on my birthday, so I had a running car when I got my license. It really did work out for the best.

I am now officially done with highschool, although I have not graduated. Graduation is June 2nd for us.

I spent my 18th birthday at my first real job, working in a machine shop - starting to learn how to TIG weld, man is that fun

Lol

Can I call you Sparky now.

I told you welding is fun.

Oh, and it gives new meaning to the phrase "Feel the burn".
