    good news is that the PSA value is <.01 which is the bottom of the scale. What this means is that the prostate cells are hibernating because of no testosterone in my system due to the hormone therapy and that some of the cells probably have died.

    not really I was watching for that, but after the fact, I can't determine where the "edges" were.. I try to make sure I use all the color each time, consistently. Seems to be okay. Its not a perfect paint job, but for my requirements it fits just fine. I do need to run a hand block with sand...

    Got the new face on the FJ60 today. Had to order a new grill after remembering my old grill melted in the fire last summer. Also ordered some anchor nuts, screws and misc parts from SOR. Looking good.
