Danny: Any way we can change the font on my siggy? I was playing with MS word and I think Copperplate Gothic Bold would be cool.

Thanks!!

there was a damn cop following me on the way to my office this morning so I didn't get a chance to open her up. (office is across the street from P.D.)
My initial reaction: Wow, this thing is SUPER smoooth!! The turbo lag is very minnimal and the handling is awesome on it. (for an suv)

When I got to the office, I was shocked about one thing though.....no overhead sunglass holder. hmm, weird.
