Tom,
BIG TIME, MAJOR BUMMER!  You have the right attitude.  Don't look back.
Be thankful for your kids and the Roadster you have.  MOST of all be
thankful that it is over.  As my good buddy Thom once told me... "Well,
the divorce is final...We split everything 50/50.  She got the boat, I
got the payments.  She got the house, I got the payments.  She got the
car/ I got the payments, She got the cam, I got the shaft." (mandatory
roadster content).

Best wishes and happy Roadstering.
