    Off topic butt....I need to "toot my own horn"..........

    At the last MSBB?? many of you fellas met my youngster. He was at the plug changing contest and other festives. Well........ he graduated from college the other day! Are you ready for this??.... (wait for it....) He graduated with a 3.96 GPA!! He made 1 (B) the entire time went . (I thought he was gonna have a heart attack when he made it! ) The guy was SICK because he didn't make an (A) on it. Said it "messed up his perfect average"!! Suda comlaude. Iguess that's how you say it!)
    We're pretty proud of him........just wanted to share/toot-the-horn .
    Now back to the disc brake nightmare..to keep it FoMoCo related!

    Sal, you should both be proud. You should proud of your son for his accomplishments and he should be proud of what he has done.

    CONGRATULATIONS!!!!  That is a real success story.  What was his major?  I bet he gets some good job offers.  Or is he going on to more education?

    Congrats to him Sal,  its a great feeling, isnt it?  

    If multiple things can go wrong, the one that will go wrong will be the one that causes the most damage.
