Ya, for sure! I had no clue you were on the virginia ice cream run! You saw Paul! get us lost then! *cackle*

Was good seeing ya, and sorry Harry Potter didn't come through. Chai got all grumpy about it too, so we ended up going last night to a 10:30pm show. Didn't get out of the theatre until 1am. Aieeeeee....

ANYHOW, was good seeing ya, even though we only got a wee bit of face time. It's always good to be able to put a full face/persolity to a contributing forum member.

Like I was mentioning for those who know what said hobby is (I'de rather not mention it specifically), there is an open invitation for anyone who might want to partake, just let me know and we can schedule something.

For those who don't know I can provide some mysterious hints.
  • requires physical exertion
  • it can be rather loud at times
  • protection is required

Really nice photos. Glad to see the smiles. See you at the January 2006 Monthly breakfast when I am back. Or at least, I think it will be back. I might have to come back here.............it is all a bit up in the air.

I'm surprised nobody mentioned that a black 2005 Ford Mustang GT drove up during the breakfast. Owner got out, chatted with a sales gent for about 20 minutes, and then test drove a dark silver MCS.

By the time the breakfast was over, the Silver MCS was gone, whisking the new owner far away from the black 2005 GT left sitting lonely on the Tate Mini lot.

How embarrassing it must have been for the poor stang... To have mediocrity forced upon you by our silly supercharged clown cars.

I spoke with one of the sales guys and the Stang guy came by the day before and worked out a deal for a MCS. He just came back to seal the deal
