Just tell him that 90% of accidents happen within 5 minutes of home, so once you're outside of 5 minutes, your chance of having an accident goes down greatly! *snicker*

I live off of the Tollway and Haverwood which is just one block North of you Big Red. Not sure if I am going to be able to make it out to the install party or not due to some pre-existing obligations. Travel time should be about 30 minutes to Jenkins house.

Looks like it's only me and deadphoenix (if he can make it) that need things installed...

Up to you guys if you still wanna have it

not saying anything by this, but are you 16? jesus, cut the cord mom!

and deadphoenix, jenkins needs to be done by 5. So if you're not planning on getting there until after lunch, it's probably not worth it.

I just need to know if we are doing this by noon so I can make my plans for the weekend. If I havn't seen a "good to go" by noon I will assume it has been rescheduled. Let me know guys!

Thanks!

Chris
