    Thank you Ken...
    I started my obsession, addiction, love affair etc. with Porsche's when I was 17. All my buds in school wanted Corvettes or Camaro's or whatever and I wanted this funny looking little thing from Germany with the engine in the wrong end. When I was a kid in the 50s, like most kids in the 50s, I built model cars. I guess I was pretty good at it because I'd win a ribbon and the older guys would ask me how I did that paint job.....I still build models as well as the full size versions. I met Jerry Seinfeld back in the early 90s and he's a real Porsche nut. I built a model of a Porsche that he ad just bought from a friend and gave it to him. He asked me if I could work for him building a few models of his collection. I ended up working for him for 8 years.......

    Good morning.

    Had a great day yesterday. Put the final coat of paint on 3 walls of the shed. Today is trim painting and install the windows. The ground is still too wet for me to finish off the back side of the shed. Much to the relief of my wife.

    Off to the gym to lose another ounce.
