Holidays kinda suck when you haven't spent any of them with people you care about in the last five years. I'm feeling better now, though. Talked to family and friends on the phone for a few hours the other night, and that cheered me up.
The lights on the truck help, too. It gives me something to focus on, and it makes people smile and laugh. Frankly I don't care if they're laughing with me or at me, cause I made their day better either way

Well my89xj convinced me to take out the 'Manche today. No real trails; just some puddle jumping on mountain roads. When we were done, I traded my 3ft Firestik for his 2ft. I think I also blew out my muffler. The Jeep was running nice and toasty, plus the backfiring exhaust, and then I plunged her into ice water

Manche didn't go through that one cause of the depth and because I didn't have a chance to get tempted. We left without success because a cop was patrolling, but he got out backward under his own power, and Barney never got stuck.

Dude! Get a grip!
So he failed to pass the obstacle and you were just scared.
