Best of luck to you Chris. Maybe, if we Southern Californians can ever get it together enough to have an SVX event, we'll have a chance to meet each other.
Later.

I appreciate that man, thanks. It did suck at points, especially in the teen years when I needed the most advice on being a man, but the lack of support and finances helped me to become a lot more self-reliant, which I am extremely thankful for. Not the least of which is learning how to work on cars, since all I could afford in highschool was a POS that I learned to fix myself, and that has saved me money many times over since.

It would be nice to get us all hooked up somewhere down here, I think theres enough active southern cal members to arrange a small meet at least. Hopefully if we could plan it out far enough in advance we could all make it.
