Then get off your computer and go mix up a nice hot beverage so you'll feel better.

Heck, I might make one myself just for the fun of it.

Oh yeah. Totally off topic here. Since I have the room in the Fusion I'm in the process of putting a nice little sound system together (I missed the one I had in the Bravada really bad!). So far I'll have 2200 watts rms of subs and the stock tweets and full range drivers for mids and highs. Probably be a few weeks before I get it all installed and dialed in but I'm really excited! The subs I picked out weigh 30 pounds each!

We had a nice company x mas party today at the My Girl Diner in Kingston. It was neat, lots of REALLY old cars in next to mint or mint condition, air hockey games and such, and old pictures of the area around here on most every wall. The 50's music was more than I could take but it was still fun.

Hope you get to feeling better FAST ! ! !

but did you get the bonus man?

I don't want to get anyone else sick. Doc says it will be a few days before I feel better. Yesterday I was hallucinating fairly often. Thought there was a bug in my hair. I'd take a shower, get out, and it would feel like a bug was crawling around on my head. Rinse and repeat. Brain injuries are sweet.

Do you really need all that sound in a corporate car? Why don't you just get an iPod like the rest of us?

I got a decent bonus, not the best I've had but it was still good. You must really be in bad shape then.
Why does it have to be a corporate car?
Did I need the v-6? Did I need the AWD? Do I need the programmer that I'll get for it? NO. But I WANT IT!!!!!

jnarowe, just getting over strep myself, and a saltwater gargle is actually quite soothing. Really. It helps break up the crap in your throat that is actually causing the pain. Been SW gargleing morning and night for the past week. Try it.

Jonathan,
I used to Body Pierce for a living and we always recommended SW gargle for healing tongue piercings.
Plus my wife just had all four wisdom teeth pulled, and the Dentist told her to SW gargle.

It works.
