The kids found DeVaca's gold buried in the back corner of our yard at the Mesquite house. The history books left out the little known fact that DeVaca did a tour in North Texas. I spent most of the fortune on eternal cryogenic storage, backup generators, canned food, and a little project at my friends house across the lake, (see details at
Rockwall Man Tries To Build Nuclear Reactor In Home - News Story - KXAS | Dallas).
I admittedly went a little crazy on the spending, and now I'm saving all over again to get my engine.
Seriously Joe, Warren is right. Last thing you want is a wife caring for your son and you never home, resenting your absence, then resenting your dream, then resenting your car, then wanting wood floors, a new kitchen, a new house, pro-bono professional courties from your plastic surgeon buddies (sure, it starts out small with some dermabrasion or botox). Then look where you end up, paying legal fees to get out from under EPA and FBI charges for a non-working nuclear reactor.
If I knew then, what I know now, I never would have bought the kids those damn sand box shovels.
