Thanks Bruce!
Just gotta write a little story to thank a guy who is a true Jeeper in every sense of the word.
I went with my brother in law to get a couple things from Home Depot and to grab some coffee's from Tims for us and the girls. While driving back to his place he looks down at the axle lock switches and says "what do these do?" So I'm trying to explain to what lockers are all about and as we are driving into his neighborhood I looked to the left and noticed a construction site........
Let's go in here for a minute I said, since he's never been wheeling before, all the while shooting my mouth off about how the Jeep has been through some pretty rough places and how it works awesome. So we are in here messing around and I went to cross a little washout which really didn't look bad at all and guess what......the Jeep got stuck.
It got high centered and the dirt was really loose, so there was no traction. Backwards or forward, it didnt matter. We got out and stacked rocks under the tires as people came out on their front porches to sit down and watch the show
After several attempts, we did the walk of shame to his place which was about 5mins up the street. We brought back my sisters outlander in there so i could use it as a winch point but all it did was pull her truck towards me, even with rocks stuffed in front of her tires.
So I finally reached for the phone. I chuckled to myself as I thought "ya right, 8:30 on a Saturday night, and the fights are on. I called a few guys but couldn't get a hold of anyone, and after several phone calls ended up getting in touch with 2Summer. He laughed ofcourse, but did not hesitate to come out and give me a hand. He lives about 30mins away, and without hesitation drove over. Once he was there he took a few pics which I'm sure he will embarass me with, and drove his Jeep in front of mine so I could winch out. After it was all over I invited him and his buddy for beers at my sisters place, but he just wanted to get back to watching the fights. I just wanna say thanks. Any guy that would leave to go help a dummy out of a jam on a Satuday night while the fights are on is a true Jeeper in my book. Maybe I can return the favour one day. Thanks Bruce!
p.s. I'm glad that it was a Jeep that got me out, cause if I woulda got out using my sister's outlander..........well, you know the rest

I'm glad I was able to help out and the only thing damaged was Art's ego (just a little bit). 
It makes for an interesting night that's for sure, I'd just poured the 1st drink, gotten the chippies out, told the wife alright see ya later and as I'm walking out the door, the crackberry starts going nutz (Text messages, BBM's & V-mail). I look at the stupid thing and all I'm getting is Art's Stuck, Call Art and then the best of them "I'm Stuck".
Call my buddy and ask him if he wants to go for a quick ride, to rescue/recover a fellow jeeper. We jump into the Rubi and off we go...
Good thing was we were able to lend a helping hand and still get back to watch most of the fights. The great thing.. I'm now owed a couple of pints
