Merry Christmas...not Happy Holidays - not xmas - but a good old fashioned Merry Christmas like they used to say before we neutered ourselves. Eat, drink, and be merry .... did I mention drink? Ho ho ho

You guys are killing me. I'm getting ready to go to work, I can't drink anything. Well, there won't be any drug/alcohol testers in the morning, what could it hurt?

Who's getting on an airplane in the morning! Buckle up!

Didn't work, I'm not offended - in fact I'm very pleased. Only thing that would bother me would be to eat, drink ...and be Mary!!

Merry Christmas back at ya!

That would be another good caption!

Sure and I'll tell you Merry Christmas, but Oldsmobile guys need to wish their friends Happy "Holidays" too!

Please don't any of you say you don't get it...

I got two Christmas cards from Iran and Saudi Arabia (from customers). Both cards said "Merry Christmas", go figure. They're not afraid to say it, why should we?

A few years ago in Toronto, city council wanted to call the big tree outside a "Holiday Tree" until they were inundated with calls. They call it a Christmas tree today.

Holidays

Merry Christmas to all of you and to your families.

Twas the night before Christmas and as I lay in bed. Visions of restoring my 442 are dancing in my head.
Pull the motor for a complete rebuild that is for sure. I know it won't be easy. It's going to be a chore.
Taking the body off of the rusty frame. When I'm done with this baby it won't look the same.
Sand blast and powder coat make it look new. because anything else, well that just won't do.
New ball joints, tie rods and all bushings to make it tight. When I'm done with this baby I want it right.
Replacing the quarters I know that willbe a battle. But when I'm done I don't want to hear a rattle.
Now to the interior replacing it all. so it's to the telephone and give legendary a call.
2 years later it's all back together and done. Now get behind the wheel and start having some fun.
Merry Christmas

First I want to thank all of you who had helped me in my projects, provided parts, advice, and laughter when I needed it this past year. I really appreciate it.
I wish all of you a fun Christmas holiday to spend with family and friends. Eat, drink, laugh, play with the kid's toys, play with your new toys, enjoy the company of others, and remember the fun memories of the Christmas past.
This Christmas is different for me, just Lady and I. I might go take a drive out to the country later on (if the rain stays away). I took the '86 on a similar long drive this past Friday and met several nice folks along the way.

Have a merry Christmas and a successful new year!
