I will hug extra for that!

 

So is that a request... a box or two of Sees "Nuts and Chews" perhaps?

 

That is a sweet (pun intended) offer, but I can get them here. In fact, the mall down the street has a See's store.

Perhaps some of the Canucks would trade you, goodies for goodies. Then you ALL can share a little with me.

 

**Mods: Since technically, I'm just "some guy with a camera", I think it's okay for me to post this in the AMVIV 5 thread. However, please feel free to move this post where it best belongs. [ss]**

It is finally official:

Thank you!

Sherwin aka Irieman

 

Forgot that See's is all over the place now. "way back in the day..." you could only get it up here in the Bay Area. Sharing the love now.

 

Sherwin !!! i miss ya!!

 

MINI Artist and I will be in a BRG/W MCS with big "claw rip" decals on the roof and a Canada flag on the aerial (provided the flag doesn't fly off on the way down ). We arrive sometime on the 26th.

 

i will have peeps, from all seasons.

i have Christmas, Valentines and easter.

they're still fresh..

find me, get a peep

 

Ferroequine see you when you get in. If you don't see my car look for the REME booth, it's right next to the Sin City Mini booth. I should be some were around there.

 

i will have MINI postcards, from many flavors.

they're hot off the British presses.

find me, get a postcard.

 

Find me, get a hug.
And I'm not British, I'm Australian!

 

Don't I know it, made that mistake ONCE

 

Sandie...
Hold a parking place for us...6-10 cars? Will be in by 5pm Wednesday. With all the cars this year, parking on the upper level could be "interesting" Looking forward to my "hug" too.!!
Should be another great ... fun... weekend!! 435 cars and counting!!
See Ya next week !!

 

Should be ready in time - Just have a few minor things to finish up. Currently my Mini is in my garage w/ no wheels, bumper, or grill (the last to are in my living room getting pieced together). It only needs the front axel rebuilt in the morning, change tranny fluid, get new tires put on, then put back together, get an alignment, and washed and waxed.

The classic is much closer to being ready, it just needs an oil change, and the new dash, and interior wood trim put on........ and then washed and waxed!

We should be there Tuesday night sometime.

Cant wait!!

Nik

 

Willium, parking on the top floor is almost none, and I see the pre-registered number is up to 449!!!

 

Wow, I find Kelly, I get a peep, find Agro, I get a hug. Find JJ, I get to grab AZZ-haha just kidding. Find Stoopidgirl, I get to see some goodies.

So I guess if you find me you will get the pure enjoyment of finding me. (blinks rapidly several times in a coquettish manner)

 

If you are packing up and wondering what to bring here is the Las Vegas Weather Forecast:

Since Norm brought up packing... I've never been to Vegas and am wondering if jeans are ok for most things? i.e the only show I'm considering is Spamalot, nothing high-brow

 

You'll be fine in jeans, Em. Black jeans are good for the night shows; can dress them up or down. We're doing Penn/Teller on Thursday night.

And shorts during the day if you wish...it gets hot out on the runs, and at the track.

Mornings are crisp/cool, but after that, it gets quite toasty.

 

Bring a jacket for the evenings, especially if you plan on hanging out on top of the garage. It can get very windy and coooold.

 

I'll make sure to bring my UCD hoodie. Thanks.

Thanks. I don't think I'll subject anyone to my legs in shorts, so jeans it is!

 

cold? weather channel is calling for lows in the 50's, that's still shorts weather for us Chicago types.

 

Oooh, bring Honker's and a Ricobene's sandwich!

 

Are we there yet?

 

Some of us are.
Jeans or shorts are pretty much fine for anything in Vegas unless you want to hit clubs, or just want to dress up.
The only time I won't be wearing shorts over the whole weekend (meaning Wednesday morning on) is during the Saturday night dinner, and possibly the Friday night mixer.
