    Day late again...
    HAPPY BIRTHDAY @Cativelense NUNO!

    unrelated...
    I saw a piece on the news last night about a little family printing shop in Fairfield CT trying to stay afloat. I think this shirt says it all!

    They got a bunch of Covid humor, in case anyone wants to support a local CT business.

    Now that Nuno is 'clean' we can poke fun at Covid. I'm getting a pre-procedure Covid test Monday. Hopefully clean too. :fingerscrossed:

    I can do a couple trucks this weekend if someone needs a FF spray. I'm not doing a big meet this year, just on demand

    Happy Belated Birthday Nuno!!

    Hope things are going well for you over there, and that you and the family had a enjoyable day... with maybe a little rest and relaxation for you.

    Thanks a lot Gary! So far so good. And didn't do much relaxation... Worked, then took my son to his taekwondo belt test, then soccer, and then had to go to Newark to pick up the in-laws at 11pm, coming back from Portugal.

    Holy crap the storm was bad. At least the power didn’t go out - flickered a bunch of times. The wind was crazy.

    My office in Newtown lost power, my home in Westchester had heaby rian but that's it. I know 34 had some downed trees and my coworkers in Derby and Shelton were pretty unhappy How about you? I was in Brookfield to get a suction cup to pull a dent out (And Chik Fil Am of course) and it seemed ok

    WE actually made out OK this time. Somehow it missed us. Just a bit of wind, some heavy rain, and thunder. Not much more than that, luckily.
