You know Daflake, I was just at Graf last week. (saw you by the way!) I don't miss that place much!

AND

Blimey, I am +1 on the triple dog dare from Abuzavi for you. Take some time off of work and come on over. Don't think about it, just do it! We will take care of you!

Ugh, I was hoping that you were closer. Those guys up in Heidelberg know how to do the job now. Henry and crew can really help you get that pulley installed.

Daflake, I did wave, but I don't think you saw me. I didn't have the MINI either, so maybe that was it.

If you were in green, you probably blended in with the surroundings.

daflake, you going to make it out this Saturday?

When I went in to reserve the bay today, the guy says, "Hey, were you with all those Minis the last time? That sure was crazy."

So, here I am, back in the States where marketing phrases such as overnight shipping and free ground delivery TRULY means "overnight shipping" and "free ground delivery" when it occurred to me to get my pulley and drag it back to Nederlands in my baggage. OK, acquisition problem solved, however, that little annoying bit about getting it installed just a bit of a bother. Surely I can't be the only one left out there waiting on another party? Knowing that Daflake is The Man when it comes to doing this, it would be one HUGE bier bribe to come out for one pulley install. Any other takers?

BTW, its been about 110-115F in NC and my son’s “new” car (94 Cutlass Ciera) does NOT have A/C!!! But he’s going to school in the mountains where the high has been in the upper 80s. I sure do miss Maggie…

Cheers!!

Poppa - sorry we haven't hooked up while you were here in God's Country... - Just had Rudy and Terrie at our monthly meet here in Raleigh Thursday night - and expect to see them again today at our rally here...

Yep - I did a long drive through the NC mountains on Wednesday - hot for the moutains (80's) but much better that 105F at home that day.

Which school is your son at? I've visited WCU, AppState, UNC-A recently...

Blimey, no worries; I was Maggie-less anyways and completely tied up getting my boy, and his car, set for AppState. Be assured that I will reach out when I do return -- with Maggie!! I will say that driving around Fayetteville has been pretty boring, from a road/routing perspective: no roundabouts, no wyndy (sp?) roads. Just straight and flat. The drivers, on the other hand, do provide enough excitement! Not as bad as Nederlanderers or Belgians, to be sure. Now, to figure out the 15% or the 17% with Alta-Nator...

Cheers!!
