Thanks on the congrats and...yes sir - I'm in the Southeastern Simi Hills....was a bit touch and go for a while but never got within 3 miles or so...imagine standing in your backyard and watching it burn right to the fence 
My hat is off to the firefighters who do such a great job in protecting us and our property...those men and women work hard and put it on the line

Awesome color. Congrats. Time for a new stool now. The FORD stool has got to go.
By the way, now that the Fords are gone and it's all BMW's now - I need to do some redecorating in my garage...can you point me to a good BMW racing poster, etc. source?
