Don't worry. There are at least 4 4x4's between the two of them. Cruisers. You should see the backyard. They HATE jeeps! Mostly because people always mistake their vehicles for jeeps.
Cruisers are good. I would own one just so my Jeep would have something to pull out of the mud.

Jeeps are classics and the original. My second choice would be a Landie. That is what my wife likes. So we will get her a Disco for her to drive around in.

Darn, I just realized it's "rotating menu items" it would be off the hook if we could eat all those things at once. :eek:

My experience is it's always "all smiles" . . . until they find something that is not "free" (err, included), and then it doesn't matter if the $1,000 per ounce caviar is on the menu . . . We got "four free breakfasts" at one place when it should have only been two. Should be happy right? Nope! "Why ONLY four?" Pfft!

Yup. Always good news to see lives being fulfilled.

My wife and I aren't planning on kids. I'm getting a bit to old to run around changing nappies.
