Hmm. I'm just not enough of an ******* to do something like that... I just wanted my problem fixed. I'm not going to be malicious...

No. Its not fair to you to have me take your bar and have you wait for a long time for a replacement. I don't want to make you go through that after you were kind enough to give me the bar.

Hey, willum (William), your dipstick should be here on Friday. Hopefully, California won't have washed into the Pacific by then. If you're down my way, you can get it installed.

Hey, if Weber is going to become a local Mini dealer, we could open up our own Mod Shop.

Hey, thanks. Won't be this weekend, but we will hookup along the way. I know its a tough install but I'm going to give it a stab myself. If you take 132 through MoTown, maybe we can do the $$ to parts swap as you fly thru or maybe I need an excuse to come down your way to help supervise the mod installs

I usually drive through Modesto about 2:00 PM on Friday and 10:00 AM on Monday. There's no hurry. You could come down on the 22nd of this month for our M7-USS install day. If they all get here by then, we will have three to put on. You can drink beer and supervise. Oh, and install your dipstick.

It's already in Oakhurst. Now, if Weber creates a need for a repair shop, we would need to be in Fresno.

I always have Sierra Nevada Pale Ale so if you don't like that you can bring something else. Hopefully, you don't like swill (Bud, Coors, MGD, etc.). If it keeps raining the way it is, I'll have beach front property so you can come by boat. I think you can find Oakhurst so if you are coming down Hwy. 49 turn left at the stoplight when it ends at Hwy. 41. Turn right on Road 426 at the next light and drive 3.25 miles. Turn right onto Bon Veu Dr. and turn down the third driveway on the right. The address is 51090 Bon Veu Dr.

I went and talked to Dave a bit ago. He will align our cars on a Saturday. Just need to give him a little notice.
I think he is going to make our next meeting, that way we can talk to him more.
I was able to work today. Went later than normal, but got finished.

Beer and donuts....yummmm. I got confused ...the 23rd is the NorCal Pinnacles run...the REME Santa Cruz run is on the 6th of May. WAY Too many options....but Norm seems to have a handle on keeping the calender straight. Gotta go have a glass of wine....helps lubricate the knee joints after installing baseboards etc....1.5 rooms down, 3 to go...

99 to Merced, 140 to Mariposa, 49 to Oakhurst. Yum, beer and donuts: breakfast of champions.

I haven't looked at the manual, but I can't believe it could take even an hour. I'll look on Saturday just to be sure.

She was wondering if it could be done at my house before the meeting, since she works on weekends.
