Had another good run....

[RTCarlin]

Had the car out testing the new u-joints Wednesday. hooked up with a really good looking orange '69 Plymouth GTX over at the entrance to 264 at Birdneck. Too much traffic to really play much though. He jumped on it while he was behind me and went around to pass and I hit it just as he was coming up on my rear quarter. As soon as the turbo spooled I started pulling him, but almost ran over a guy in a little red 2 seater of some sort and had to quit. We both exited at Lynnhaven but being 4pm, couldn't play. He gave the thumbs up at the first light and turned down S Lynnhaven. Great looking car that sounded really nice. He jumped on it on the exit at Lynnhaven (the twisty) and got it sideways a bit... fun stuff...

>sigh< Now I'm back on the ship............ great....

That's pretty funny! I know exactly where you're at. i'm down the hall right next to Air Ops in the ACDS computer room. Right now, I'm on watch as CSOOW.

Give me a call at 7189 and you can have the grand tour!

I'm pretty sure I'm going back to an Gator for my next ship. The carrier has been interesting... but I think I liked the LHD better. If I can pick up CPO this year, maybe I'll have a few more choices of ships... but as of now, based on my NEC's, I'm stuck with CVN's and LHD's....

If you make CPO your choices will narrow even more... Usually the best rank to get the orders you want is usually E5. Once you make E6 and above, your choices get slim quick!
