The Dodge saga continues... didn't hear from the dealer so I called them at 10AM to see what's going on …
They put the truck in the shop last night and worked on it about an hour before knock-off It's not a mechanical sticky on the throttle. Mechanic is off today :smile: and they don't do warranty work on weekends? :shock: 8) The tech is going back into it Monday AM, which means I'm not going to work Monday due to a lack of street legal wheels (the YJ is stripped down for the paint shop and the CJ is still in-op. My bicycle works, but it’s 32 miles to work!). I haven’t looked at the throttle set-up on a new Hemi, I suppose it’s all computer controlled :-|

Old college buddies kidnapped me last night and took me back to campus to party... Had a blast till some dumb girl tried to start something with me... HAD NEVER EVEN MET HER BEFORE!!!! I've never been a fighter but if someone starts something I will defend myself... Needless to say I am no longer allowed at Bo's N Mine bar in River Falls Wisconsin! I loved that bar too! :(: bouncers!

Went out last night with the girlys for a couple of drinks. Had only had one beer when I got up to go to the bathroom and passed out. It was scary, everything got really quiet and I just started cold sweating. Woke up laying on the pool table with a big ole lump on my head and a bruised elbow. Talk about embarassing... Have been sick and hadn't eaten in awhile cuz I haven't had an appetite. Worse part was waking up to everyone staring over me and having to explain that no, it was not because I was drunk. Ick :oops:
