  4. figures, blogger quits on me with an error as I typed this long diatribe... You've got to work on your 5 Mile PR. 2002 just doesn't look right...that's BAA territory back then... I was pushing 2 bills back in 2002. Pencil in Slattery's in November... guaranteed PR. You'll have Sanca and all those other guys there, but it will be fast!
