I've watched merrily

as this thread has blossomed. Clearly you won't Blinkwatt, but don't let anyone quell your enthusiam. When I bought my Box on 2001, my brother reminded me that from age 15 on I'd sworn I'd have a Porsche by the time I was 30. I missed it by 2 months (owing to getting married (who thinks about that at 15?) and incurring (and paying off) six figures of student loans in the interim), but the point is, at 19, I was making $5/hr being a messenger making copies and coffee for a law firm. I remember now with amusement one of the big shots taking me aside and telling me condescendingly that hangin' as a messenger, playing softball, and generally goofing off was no way to begin a career. What one might be up to at any moment may not be indicative of what he's doing or where he's going. That joker couldn't afford me now. Anyway, Blink, I want to go for a ride in your Modena--can you advance the schedule a bit?
