Time Sure Flies By, Doesn't It?
« on: November 08, 2008, 09:32:15 PM »


        Yep, in less than a month, some of you all will have been putting up with me for 3 years (registered 4 Dec 05)! ::) Hard to believe that I've been here that long and yet, at times, it seems like I've known some of you all forever (and I'm not knocking that, BTW  :) ). ;) Just happened to think about the fact that another anniversary was coming up for me being here and I knew that if I waited, to say anything, I'd probably forget. ::) Thanks you all, for putting up with me. I have really enjoyed it and hope to be around for some time to come. :) I've also developed (and am continuing to develop) quite a massive bunch of friends here also! 8)

                                      Take care, Bill ;)

  Hey Leadfoot Bill, I joined just 2 weeks after you, I remember you had a green Charger in your avitar then?  Much great SOHC info has been shared by members in those 3 years as well as lots of drama, entertainment and laughs too. 
  Overall I'd say you have been pretty easy to put up with.  :)

I second what Dave says about being easy to put up with, unlike some of those Canadians. ;D
Take care Bill!

        Hey "Slowpoke Dave" :D Time has really gone by, huh? ::) That was probably my Petty Blue 69' road runner back as my avatar back then. I have had 2 66' Chargers at one time (a red one & a dark blue one) Yeah, a lot has gone on here in that time, hasn't it? 8) I'll have to say that I really value the time spent here too! ;)

                             Take care Dave, Bill ;)

          And FASTER and FASTER and so on..............
     My Mom told me that this would happen, back when I was wishing I was a teen, then 16, then 18, and so on. Didn't take long to know that she wasn't fooling!

                                  Take it easy, Bill ;)

         Uh Oh!  Now You've Done Rocking-M! :o I was afraid of that! :o    Don't hurt him too badly there Dave, okay? :( ;D

        ::) :D You all are something else! ;)

       
       BTW Dave, I'm doing better with that "Leadfoot". Between the 27th of July (the day my Dad went into the hospital at Little Rock and things started really going into full speed with my Dad's situation), I've only gotten stopped for speeding three times and managed to get a Warning each time. ::) And, it's been about a couple of weeks since I've been stopped..............So Far! ;D

Dave has already invaded, brought both ground troops and the Canadian Navy.
Only thing is they seem to be intent on rounding up Holsteins.  ;D
