    How is it progressing?

    Just got off the phone with our builder. He's pouring the foundation today. I have the application for water hook-up ready to be sent in (with a check for $800) and the gas hook-up application goes in the mail tomorrow. Funny thing with the gas form. I have to sign that I agree to pay "the charges." No mention as to what those charges are. Not that I have much choice.
    Framing will begin after the bank inspects the foundation and sends our builder a check for it.

    As for the party, let's have it over a long weekend. I don't have a mega system like some here are used to, but it does OK. And there will be some kind of music in every room. I even have a TT from the dark ages. We'll have two refrigerators so there will be plenty of brew. Maybe some wine for you, JohnMichael & a few other wine & cheese guys.
    I've talked to a few of the girls in the mud competition. Some may be busy, but there should be a few that can make it.

    Sounds like a great time. Enjoying your system and company. I wonder if there is an audio store where you can register for housewarming gifts. If not I guess we could buy something for the house.

    JohnMichael,

    That's a good idea and a nice touch. Count me in.

    Just bring copies of your favorite CD's & DVD's. Or LP's, cassets or 8-tracks.

    All people have good & bad in them. No one is all good. No one is all bad.
    Same goes for countries, races & religions. Sir TTT is on the right track. View each person for who they are. Not where they came from. Not what color they are. Not how much money they have. And not what God they pray or don't pray too. Remember that no matter how bad someone is, there is always a little good hidden somewhere inside. The reverse is also true.

    I am basically a nice guy, but I do have the moniker Sir Terrence the Terrible because of my previous poor behavior.
