    I would love some help. Bumper first, though. Speaking of bumpers, yours is looking great.

    I love my most recent tool purchase. It has a very stable arc.

    It's more fun not knowing why you're gonna do when you grow up. Guess I should figure that out at some point . :D

    I wouldn't bother. I'm trying to figure out how to be a kid.

    I want to be done with school, but I also don't want to be an adult. Seems like quite the dilemma I've found myself in.

    Hell I'm 29, kid at heart. The trick is not to get bogged down with things you don't really want. A great accumulation begins after college, more and more stuff. Some of it is good and worth it but most of it is just clutter that bogs you down. The key is to lead a flexible life at least until you want to settle down.

    It's like being stuck in a round about isn't it :). I'm just waiting for my wife to be done. Luckily for me I found the career I was happy with doing for the rest of my life 9 years ago. Hopefully you land the job you want in the state you want to be in. Location is huge!

    I'm sure you've heard..
    Growing old is mandatory. Growing up is optional.
    I still don't know what I'm doing when I grow up. Hell, I've actually entered my second childhood, single, kids grown up, nobody telling me what to do, life is good. I'm the biggest kid on here.:D

    Con-... your gas mileage will suffer due to actual changes in elevation (more than just over passes)

    does that help? :D

    Long winters, short summers, forest fires, flooding, wasting disease, inflated property values.
    Really the only cons are too many Californians moving here and not enough Texans. :D

    Its fully welded. I took the pic before I welded it.

    For a car or something the tire won't stuff in to it might be ok as is.

    This is the front all welded.
