Oh Yeah, REAPER, Let me just give the short version of that "E Ticket" ride comment. Here's the setting, late at night in Las Vegas, Chris Reeve is driving. Chris has been drinking tea too. Chris used to be a Grand Prix motorcycle racer. Chris is now driving a one ton 4 wheel drive 6 pack truck. Chris is locked and loaded at the starting line of a race track also known as "The Strip", 100,000 (true figure) extra people are in this town for three major conventions, all at the same time. they are also all on "The Strip". Chris is allergic to going slow. We are not moving. This is going to get fun. Oh yeah, I forgot the part about having Reaper in the backseat. Reaper is in the back seat. Chris sees what may be an opening develop up ahead. This is kinda like being in that movie "The Matrix" Chris see's things before they happen. "The Force" tells him that there may be a parting of the sea and if he guns it hard, it will happen as he gets there. This becomes true. One side of his truck is wiped clean by the silk shirt of some babe riding on the back of her boyfriends motorcycle. We go one by, bike is still upright. Just another day at the office. Glad to be able to give you a ride home Reaper. Bill
