LOL! I'm a structural engineer for a fabrication firm here in Corpus
Christi. Bill Cochran, one of our suppentendant has his roots in Mississippi
and when I ask him how things are going on the fab line he usually responds
"steady gittin' it."
As I've had my love for two years, that's the one thing it does well..steady
git it. It doesn't "git it fast" but it "gits it steady" and we always get
there.

One of my favorite rides was coming out of South Padre back up US77 with
everybody passing my steady speed of 57 1/2 MPH. When I got to the boarder
check point, there all those fine people were...waiting in line. I got to
thinking this is going to be fun because they are going to want to pick my
old bus clean. ...they motioned me right through, while they held up
everyone else!

For the next 1 1/2 hours, I had all those fast guys passing me again. Ol'
Steady got me hom e about the same time as everybody else. Thanks for
inquiring about her name. She wears it proud!

Greg,

You obviously know something about music. A majority of people have not
heard of Billy Preston. I play organ and piano and he is inspiration.
'Will it Go Round in Circles' is a great tune and inspired, I think, by the
'Circle of 5ths'. Great question to Dru and Debora, but Preston's tune is
"Gettin" with an "i". I planned to name my bus 'Tonewheels', based on the
tone generator of a Hammond organ.

Thanks!
