    I can do it. I've gotten pretty good with tech lately. My wife just showed me how to open links. It's not really that hard. You just click on it and all the information pops up. 
    I asked her to show me how to do a screen shot so hopefully in a few weeks I'll get good at doing those too. 
    Is there anything else I need to know?

    This is why Daytona and Talladega isn't a favorite to me. It's all about the big one and all the accidents. I am glad no one got hurt in the accidents, though.

    Sorry but I have an astronomy event to go to in a place called Clarion Pennsylvania. I'll jump a creek on the way down though just to get in the spirit of DOHD. 
    Yeeeehawwww!

    Always great to make memories ain’t it? You and your brother will cherish that time forever.  
     
    My dad and I went to a few local car shows in our time too, he liked his cars but he really loved art. 
     
    He was a painter, he did those paint by numbers kits, and managed to do 50 of em. He gave a lot of em away a few years ago, but the handful he kept are now proudly hanging on my walls.

    Hi Roger,
    I was very blessed to have him, and I hope I do him proud. He definitely passed the tradition on to me, and I hope someday I’m blessed enough to do the same, should I be blessed with fatherhood. 
     
    You’re not too personal, don’t worry. Actually my name is Thomas, but I shorten it to Tom these days. When I signed up here and thought of a username, I figure Tom Duke has a nice ring to it.  
     
    Never realized about the parallel with Tom Wopat, kinda cool as he’s my favourite of the Duke Boys.

    Dad instilled a love of cars in me. He used to take me to cruisin' 50's night in high school and when I was little we went to the Harrah's Auto Museum in Sparks, NV on vacation. That was a treat. Dad had dementia for his last years, but my brother and I managed to get him to the Palos Verdes Concours d'Elegance and the Petersen Automotive Museum a few years ago. We had a blast, made some great memories, and took lots of photos.

    If my math is correct, that's 10am my time which is fine with me. I'll be at work, so wouldn't normally have a chance to check HNet mid-morning.

    I'm a night owl, so that won't be a problem. 
    Mid-week it is. How about a Wednesday or Thursday around 2am my time? 
    It'll probably be sometime this summer.
    I have a lot going on right now. Lots of doctor's appointments.
    If all goes well, the summer should be pretty quiet. Good time to do the update.

    Nice photos, Hoss! Magnum, PI was one of my favorite shows so I was excited to see the Ferrari. A lawyer in my hometown had a 308 in the late 80's. I got to see it often on my drive to school since his practice was right near the high school.

    They're virtually unknown over here, and so far I've only seen them at this show. The guy goes by the name 'Cranky Yankee'. I've just checked his Facebook page, and apparently he'll be closer to where I live a couple of times over the summer.
