Happy birthday, Al. Put me in for a bacon-wrapped filet, medium.  :worshippy

I'd be glad to buy Al a beer - in fact, I'd buy all of ya a beer if I could.  Of course I'm unemployed, so I can't...   :grinno:

I wish more of the people were closer too. But I do have a nice group of muscle car people that go to shows together. In the winter we help each other out on our cars. But I'm the only one with an e-body. :walkaway:

atleast you have that. all the folks that are here in PC either keep their cars hidden, dont take them to shows, or are not friendly enough to hang out and talk cars.  :walkaway: we all just need to move to one state.   :misbehaving:

I was thinking ( I know ) it would be cool if we could pick a place that's kind of centrally located for most of us and meet. Dig out a map and find a city to hook up at and just go to there and get to know each other.

Just a thought.

We threw this idea up a couple of years back about meeting OldSchool on some mountain in Georgia. He is still waiting for us.   :smilielol:


Seriously, I love the idea, but it's like meeting at Carlisle. Many people only go to the Nats in Ohio, and won't come Eastward.   :dunno: It's a tough thing. Then the people out West get left out.

You sound like my dad Al. He can strike up a conversation with the lady on the other end taking payments on his cell phone. I would love to be closer to you guys as well. I have my brother in law and a couple of mopar friends here in this town but work and family always get the lions share of time. I miss the old days when life was so much simpler. Good times with good friends that you just never wanted to end.
