Did ya miss me? Landed a new job a few weeks ago, and that combined with other things around here have kept me away for too damned long. Good to be back.

RX-GR8: Glad to see you've been keeping up the good work with the Word Associations. :)

Gyro: Yep. I actually started back at the end of March - contract to perm. Looks like they're going to make me an offer this week. :D

Good to have you back.

And ditto on you getting back into an 8. Of course, you may want to buy a 3 first, so you can practice before the big national competition:D

I hope you worked into the deal some time off to go to Monterey and win a new Mazda 3 - to be used for a down payment on a new 8!!!!!

Welcome back.

Oh yeah, time off for the trip to Laguna Seca is non-negotiable. If I have to take it as unpaid leave, or just feel a sudden sickness coming on, nothing's gonna keep me from that! :)

The wife's also got us pegged for a trip to Cabo San Lucas with her family later in September - if it comes down to a choice between the two...I'm sorry, honey. ;)

Good to see one of the 'originals back.....

Sorry for what has happened to the forum you left, it is now more about cats, limes and cats wearing lime-skin hats, than RX-8's.:(

Well, they made me an offer today, and I accepted. I go perm on 6/17, so I guess it's time to start doing the sums and looking for another 8. :D

Marvelous- will you get the same color/package?

eccles

I'll certainly get the same package, but I might consider yellow instead of blue. We'll see.

Heya, Mr Toad. Good to be back, though I'll admit it's also nice to be free of my adiction! I'm just checking in once or twice a day now, instead of all day every day. :)
