Excellent!
Keep at that same hills section for a while then that sucker will be too small for your bad self in no time!
That's the spirit soldier!
BTW, when I make suggestions like those I made in this thread, along with a few others, I/we tend to take a lot of heat but when someone like you actually goes out there and says "Just Do It!" Nike fashion, that makes it all worth it......... Thanks, you made my day!
