April fools!!!!!


Your car is built and being shipped!!!!

Sorry Ripple!!!! I know it was mean. But I could not resist since it went through on 4/1/2006.

I was going to wait until 12:01 AM. But everyone started messing with Devil Dog.


Devil Dog was in on it and a complete innocent.

I am to blame. Sorry all, but I have a cruel sense of humor and from my dealings with Ripple I know he has a sense of humor.

Love ya man. Sorry all for leading you on. I tried to let everyone know. I will say many of you caught it and sent me a PM first.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ok now for the beating. Let me have it.

You suck -

That was really very cruel - but funny as hell. I have some friends over and we have been talking about it alot and they keep saying, if it is a joke I bet he keeps it going until 11:59....


So ....does this mean I am at 4200 or something very close.....

p.s. I am proud of myself for getting beyond my grief and putting it together that this was (is) April 1

SEE!!!! My customers understand me. My wife has been hovering over me for 1/2 an hour saying how mean I am. I knew you would get it.


Sorry for you being the target of my boredom. I promise you I will have a nice gift for you when you come down....errr up.


BTW - You are 3800 code now. But it is my experience with the Solstice that they stay in this code until they actually arrive at my door. So very soon my man!!!!


PS... I was going to wait until 12:01 AM. But then I thought that you might be asleep and I did not want you to go to sleep with that on your mind.
