I'm just trying to catch up with missed mail and get a nap before Nascar. Spent all last week at SEMA with Dragon and his marketing rep. We keep getting more connected every year. We did not pay for maybe 4 or 5 meals the whole week. Ate at Molton's Steak House (i think Molton) but, best ribeye I ever had. Our new main vendor took us there then next day another took us to see Carrot Top with food and drink before at sort of a greet and meet. SEMA was so good to us all as buyers this year by having upstairs breakfast snacks but, fresh carved roast beef or turkey with a bunch of different sides to choose. So most days were 3 meals a day furnished then later in evening sponored parties by vendors. I need to rest for a week to make up for week in Vegas.

Lot's of fun after being pinned down for last 2 years from illness. Dragon made it his goal for me not to have to decide on anything just whether I felt good enough to do this or that and would you please go get a nap we have alot to do tonight. I stuck most everyday at the show though as I had many vendors to say Hi since I had not seen them since 2005 SEMA. Visited with top guys from Dub and they asked why my H2 was not rolling in their shows. Next thing I turned it over to Dragon and they want photo portfolio of the mall queen as we have many things they had not heard of on an H2 yet. Dragon is good about thinking ahead of the pack. Picked up a newer vendor that Dragon has been using and at dinner with them told the marketing guy to see what all they could put on the H2 even if it meant taking off other peoples stuff as they would like to move into the main sponsor role. So getting big brake kit and just a bunch of other stuff. I'm letting Dragon's company handle those negotiation for me where I would have done it myself in past but, Dragon has really jumped to a higher level now when it comes to negotiating with the sponsors and vendors.

All have a good Sunday.
