Nice to see another FW'er. Looks like its been a long journey, but you made it for the most part.

I noticed another light bluish bug in the background of one of your pictures. Keep on buggin, and perhaps see you around.

ElGuapo was my online poker handle for years,and since I no habla espanol, I naturally assumed it meant TheGoat. I thought I got screwed on a hand while drunk one night,so I called player support.When I gave her her my info,she says, The BeautiffulOne,I say no,TheGoat,.She told me i was wrong.Then she told me I also lost the hand,but in a sexy voice..Good times.

Bug looks good,op. oh....,I see what you did there.nice work.

Any rubbing in the back with it lowered and that size tire? I like the way it fills up the gap and bulges slightly. What brand tire is it?
