Hello Rick:  I look back at my old magazines constantly (as you can tell
when I start quoting what magazines certain car articles are printed), it is
better than watching the current tv shows.  I will be looking for your car
in Lexington and visit with you a bit, haven't really talked face to face
with you in years.

Note:  I left out all references to 'excited'.

Regards, Steve
