Are there any Canadians interested in MINI takes the States in August? I'm in Wpg, trying to get a few of the MB Group interested...any others from Canada interested?
I went to MINI United 09 and it was a blast, this one is supposed to be similar? We'll see when more details pop up.

Hey Dennis!
No worries, I like you too! Fortunately, you are one of the 4 cars that shows up at the Julep or the other meets so I have someone to talk to.
I have not had such a pleasant experience with some of the other guys. I am really friendly until someone becomes pretentious and rude. I mean come on, we are all there to geek out with our toys and make friends with the same interests. I speak french so I understand what most people are saying...especially when I am turned around. I usually leave feeling annoyed after finding 3 other Minis, 2 douche bags and a parking lot of rice burners.
I laughed so hard to myself when I took this picture that summed up Thursday at the Julep. The big wing on the Sunfire, the happy couple in their matching short shorts and worst of all, the 5 series BMW in the background with a pair of Canadian tire stick on grills for the side. It upset my stomach more then the OJ and poutine.
Jamie, it's Mathieu (owner of modified 2005 MINI Cooper S dark silver convertible). I was very impressive by progress you did in french speaking. Ob my side, I still improve my english (even people told me it's good enough).
Like you, I found out there are nice people in Club MINI Québec. But a few of them are rude and take themself too seriously (and act like "parents" toward their own "kids"). What we could we do. I decided to take a step away from the Club MINI Québec and focus on something else (I am looking to a new job and other new perceptives in my whole life).
There is the fact, Orange Julep is THE place for rice burners. Personnaly, I know I amn't fit in this area (I am a true metalhead/headbangger). Like you, I don't like rice burners, but they make me laught in their goals to be "fast 4 furious"!
I would like also take the States (with other MINI owners, why not), but I would like to go to California. Are you with me?
Hey the best cure for ricers at the julep is to go there and blast some Opeth towards them. You can join me and we can get em from both sides next time.

I already did before! I put some Cradle of Filth (Dusk Her Embrace album), Hecate Enthroned (The Slaughter of Innocence album), Darkthrone (FOAD album), Disfear (all albums), Gallhammer (all albums). They were like "WTF!? It sn't a place for Metalheads, Julep is for Fast 4 Furious and for boum-boum! Yo" where they were looked at me.
Holy, I join you to the metalhead crusade in Julep!
I like all sorts of music but the crap they listen too is an insult to all electronic music. On that note, lets do it! Load up the ipod! I'm gone next week to Maine for a conference, so maybe I'll show up at the one after. On the bright side I get to drive my car 6.5 hours to Maine. Should be fun! I love road trippin.
