I have been... just cardio though. Still scsred of weights as the last time (im told it had nothing to do with it) i lifted, i ended up with the perforation trip to the er/icu 2 daya later...

Just do it man. If it was me, I'd start doing a light workout, just to get my body used to it. I sooo miss putting the uniform on. You're good man.

Wheels blasted from chrome... now powdercoated primer (they are not staying pink). So now they can be sanded and painted white diamond pearl to match the truck...

Just found this thread Larry, glad you are back on your feet and don't worry buddy, everything will.be alright. Just keep your head up and focused on other things. The Esky looks good man! Keep us updated and I'll be thinking about you! Having another Dyno day this year by chance? It's been a year or two since I went.
