Health issues, family issues, and personal experiences forced me to reassess my priorities....and I've been a much more content person since. These days I've got enough coin to keep the lights on and buy a few parts, and I've been around long enough to see a lot of the Almighty Dollar Worshipping crowd continue to live their greedy selfish lives and become very miserable people... I had a number of people cheat me out of big $$$$$, and I've watched those same people become victims of someone who plays the same game only is much better at it take them to the cleaners. Granted it didn't put any money back in my pocket, but I'm still happily building Hot Rods and hangin' out with my Grandkids while they're out looking for someone else to cheat, and paranoid as heck that someone is going to cheat them......I think I won!!!! I do offer you my condolences for losing your best friend and your dog, that's tough. Here's hoping 2012 is nothing but good for you Slepp!!!
Amen to that,Dave..Been in a similar position myself,,and we are happy with what we have now..Your health is much more important,,and you have those kool little granddaughters to consider now,as well..
