Who's jaw is swolen shut after wisdom teeth removal surgery.

Poor thing. I feel for her. I had two taken out on the same day. When the novacaine wore off, OMG was I in pain. :bigcry: It took another 15 minutes for the painkillers to kick in. I won't forget that, ever.

I had a good Christmas. Got Return of the King extended Wide screen version and .... 4 new rims and tires. Now I just have to pick them out. :D Decisions... decisions.... :thinker:

Speaking of Digital Camera's...I've got a DVD cam but all the software for this thing SUCKS!

Can anyone suggest some good video editing software? I'm looking to burn DVD's, edit video with assorted effects and maybe even convert video, because the camera records somewhere's around 350xsomething or other resolution and I need 720x480.

My family, all in the same place, at the same time.
All healthy.

My cousins are both out of the armed forces (after MANY years of service).

I have a new job with working with a man whose integrity is driven by his decency and the fact he is also a deacon in the church.

The house is warm, we are all safe and well, and the rest is just trimming.

I need for nothing, though I may want for more, there are too many blessings in my life to list.

I wish and pray you all the same. Life, sometimes, is VERY good.

Mat that's way cool! You've got a winter beater I gander? You lucky bastage! I can't say as Viki likes cars, but she knows about guns so that's good enough:DThe winter beater is a 2 door, 4WD 1995 GMC Yukon GT. I can go anywhere, and I especially love driving in all this snow! The MM stays nice and warm, covered, and heated all winter long!

James, no matter what some people might say...having a girl that's interested in the same things you are is a hell of a lot of fun!! It definitely makes going to the drag strip a lot more fun! Even though she makes me look silly when we race each other.

Heather's 87 Turbo Buick...she ran an 11.88 @ 117 this past summer...on a track that doesn't hook well...and on a day that was about 85 + degrees. Metallic Grey, Chrome trim...real SLEEPER. She made a Z06 look dumb as hell last year on the street, with my big ass in the pax seat! The guy was pissed, and couldn't believe he got smoked so bad!


This car definitely draws a crowd after people see it run 11 second passes.
