[Rhodes22-list] Lettering

[Rik Sandberg]

Yeah Hank,

That's REAL CLOSE to being better than sex.

Drove those things for 15 years. Won some, probably more than most ever 
do, but wasn't what you'd call a star. I had a tough few days last April 
when I sold her to a friend of mine so his son could start racin'.

Now it's boats and bikes and I try to avoid gettin' too racy with 
either. It's a terrible addiction. :-)
