100mpg???? that's incredible...as it stands now we get about 52mpg and we fill that 10 gallon tank every 2 weeks....once a month fill-up???? i could live with that!! enjoy!!!

hey steve, do you know the name of the opening act for plant/krauss in bergen? wanted to see if they had an album out yet. it was a trio of men from london i believe...name was unintelligible when announced at the concert...i've looked around online to no avail. here's a clip if it helps...

bought one of these when i found out we were getting stationed in norway ($9/gal gas) and absolutely love it...get the model with the keyless entry/start and you will never have to take the keys out of your pocket... we also got an after market cargo carrier for the top for the times you want to go camping/ect...never going back to driving a tank again!!!

looks straight out of the family photo album...you sure we're not related???

i think a lot of people may think that when they are younger...the time will come when you will accept yourself or make the changes you feel necessary...it's quite exhilirating when it happens!

saw this in prague the other day...

ROFL counts... 2,3,4, 2,3,4...

very nice thing to say...don't know if we will see him, im mainly watching the background. im hoping they show the portion of the cruise from hawaii to san diego (the tiger cruise) where family members are allowed to finish the cruise. my daughter went and really enjoyed it... one thing to note is that these guys have been cruising to the gulf since the first iraq war...there has been no break... til next week...

hey steve, thanks for the info. and for responding so fast!!! (and for confirming im not insane) ...have looked online over the years for info on this concert with no luck. assembly hall is where they do the basketball games for the fighting illini. i checked the archives online for the "daily illini" the student paper and nothing comes up but don't know if they have them from that far back available on the net. i remember the security kept everything very civil....we were required to stay in our seats on the floor and absolutely no cameras were allowed. been hoping maybe someone got one in and the photos will show up. was a beautiful thing to see jimmy so close up...i could hardly contain myself!

saw the firm at assembly hall in champaign, ill in early 1986... spectacular to see jimmy from fourth row center anybody have any info or reviews? googled and also checked local newspaper archives to no avail. maybe i just dreamed the whole thing...

ok, saw the 3rd episode last night where they pull into hongkong and the guys all order the custom red leisure suits ... disturbing at the end when the e-6 sailor of the wing, who is on the fast track, ends up having sex with the e-3 while on duty as the sexual victims liason!! i was surprised at how nonchalant he was ...didn't seem too bothered that his whole career was shot...something is wrong with that guy...just a total shock that seemed to come out of nowhere!!!

it's only playing once a week here in europe, so i have only seen the first one. my husband was on that cruise so we are keeping a look out for him. here are a few photos from the nimitz...
