Good morning, boys! Feels good to be back in Houston and staring (hopefully) at a few days where I'll be home before having to head back out on the road again next week!

My big project for the day is to sneak over to the storage unit where I keep my Mustang and organize the Hot Wheels that I have collected over the years. I want to group them into individual boxes of "Ford", "GM", "Mopar" and "Other" so they're a little more organized when I want to find one.

Jimmy -- does your wife still drive that low-mileage Expedition?

Don't remember the last time she drove it. I drove it to Athens on a quick trip last Saturday. She now has 10,034 miles.

That'll be a sweet little rig for someone to pick-up some day when you're driving days are over......

Our daughter keeps asking for us to sell it to her to supplement her Excursion. Not happening anytime soon.

Doing a health screening after lunch for cheaper insurance rates.

Anyone want to do an over/under bet on my current weight?

Hey -- at least your tall, so as you gradually gain weight over the years you have a lot more places to hide it versus a short guy like me.....

Being 78.5" tall I'm 2" off the chart she gave me on BMI

Also being somewhat muscular my BMI will appear higher even tho my % fat isn't as high

Your and my definition of "somewhat muscular" must be different.
