Rex hasn't posted for a couple of days. I was wondering if he was OK. Then I got an email from Shop Talk Field Reporter Jarvis tonight. John sent this picture and report: Rex Benson was recently seen at the local Chevrolet dealer in downtown Owenton,Kentucky. Nita,Rex's wife, had suggested that they purchase a Suburban when they were shopping for their last vehicle. Well Rex went ahead and bought a smaller Tahoe. He always has trouble fitting everything in it after a petro show. It looks as if Rex has finally figured out that Nita was right and is out shopping for a Suburban. (This is only a joke at Rex's expense, and is in no way meant to hurt Nita. She is a wonderful person that I'm proud to call my friend...so is Rex...but he was in on that prank JJ pulled on me. HAHA) [This message has been edited by Lastgas15 (edited 12-20-2004).]
