Happy New Year
Happy New Year to all oil & gas burners. It is nice to spend New Years Eve reading through all the terrific posts and to see the spirit of helping friends who share a common passion. Not quite the end of the year here in California but getting close. Have a safe, healthy and prosperous 2014 and beyond.

Yes, Happy New Year to all the great people here on the Forum, and may this New Year that is fast approaching be a better one.

10PM here on the West Coast, and on the east Coast it is next year already, dang, they are one Hour into it.



Have a fun night partying, be safe.

Now if I can stay awake, if not...see you on the other side.

You are absolutely correct, and I planned it that way. I made my last post of 2013 #2,013 last evening.

You guys are putting WAY too much thought into this!

But Happy New Year to all. And thanks y'all for all the helpful input you have offered on my race truck project - most useful. Hoping to get down the track this Spring.

May your projects all live happily in the New Year!

Dan

I congratulate you on your restraint and sense of forced serendipity since 2007 when you joined but you you've just buggered up next year and the year after and the year after that...

...and the one after that...

...and the next!

Well I guess you can't have everything! At least I have had my little fun this time. If I had not noticed that I had 2,003 posts yesterday, I would have missed the opportunity to have that little fun. I just made sure I posted at least 10 more before days end, so the 2,014th would be this morning. It is not often that something like this comes up, so I figured I would take advantage of it when it did!.....Rich
