Thanks Bobcat. The Cobra thing is getting closer form me. I guess I'm sitting pretty good financially right now. My only dept is a small loan on our van ($2800 or so) that will be gone by summer. I'm an engineer at Caterpillar, so my income is decent and pretty secure right now. Still, five kids eat a LOT. Then there is retirement and college saving to deal with, but I'll get there.
Roanoke, Illinois is named after Roanoke, Va. Some of the early settlers in the town were from that area and reused the name. It's a very small town (pop. 1800), our claim to fame is being the home of the biggest Viper dealer in the country.
Thanks again.
