Hey, I grew up in Rockford, IL and went to school in Champaign/Urbana. Also, a life-long Packer fan.

Great to hear from another midwesterner - I'm a Springfield native. As a product of a "federal family" we moved around a bit. I grew up in Illinois, graduated from high school in Fairfax County and then did my undergrad work at University of Florida.

My allegiance from a baseball perspective has always been to the St.Louis Cardinals. Must confess though I've been a Redskins fan since my Dad's last duty station was here in the DC area many, many years ago.

Thanks MiniNurse. Gotta admit to a long time respect for the Packers. Not only from a win/loss perspective but any community that can consistently pack (no pun intended) a stadium in 10 degree weather is a community worthy of respect Deb and I lived in south Florida for almost 15 years and I remember many home games that weren't even close to being sold out.

I just joined up today and wanted to say hi. About a month ago I brought home Lily, a 2006 Cooper, hyper blue, white roof, white mirror caps and bonnet stripes. My first Mini and I am really happy with it. It's a blast to drive, so much better than the SUV I had been commuting in. I hope to meet up with some of you at some point.
My name reflects my Mini and my other automotive passion, my Corvairs. I have three, all 1969's and am the current president of Group Corvair, the Washington DC Corvair club.

Be seeing you,
Phil

Exactly. I unstickyed it after the board meeting discussion on cutting back the stickies. Blame me.

Keep in mind that any time new members are welcomed, it gets bumped automatically anyway. Any new members who already read NAM are going to see it. It's the ones that don't read NAM yet that will miss it... but stickying the thread won't change that.
