Re: I am a cheese!!

[Jeremy R King <kingjer@eng.auburn.edu>]

I was hoping you'd be reading these posts!  I really am jealous, no lie.  
The car looks EXTREMELY nice (the five spoke wheels help tremendously, as 
well as the nice tint job).  My lowly Quantum pales greatly by 
comparison.  I appologize for the "cheese" comment (I wanted the whole 
list to know of my appology, and the quality of this machine).  I was 
just disappointed that you said you got off the list - I thought you 
didn't fully appreciate what folks like me are missing out on.  I didn't 
know the car was a Turbo - makes me even more jealous.  I thought all the 
5kcstq's had the word "Turbo" on the trunk lid.  

If you'd ever like an extra set of hands to do some of your crazy 
maintenance, I've got a nice set of tools.
