Oh I hear enough...

Ed... Hey Mike... you know my first MINI sank on the Triclore....

Tigs: Honey... keep in mind we havn't signed the papers yet... or...

Honey I have the captain of the Carmen's direct number... don't make me call him and tell him to push your R56 overboard.. (usually only hear this if I leave the seat up again)

 

Yes they ARE and I don't know......that's the way it should be!

 

Live in fear, baby.

<----was spotted stalking the Carmen at 9:38PM PST

ARRRRGGHHH...me wants a MINI....ARGGHGGHHH

Give up the bounty of the Carmen, matey, or else! ARRRGGHHH

 

I think it's a Nakkie MINI Driver!

 

Hiya, Chris!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Gary... I have to take Tigs to see Harry Potter in IMAX 3-D (Insert ginormously oversized rolling eye smiley here)

Keep an eye on my boat for me

 

I think it was the Isolde that disappeared from tracking for awhile. So some of us provided helpful suggestions as to why she had gone silent. We'd be happy to do the same for Carmen, should the need arise.

 

You are all a bunch of loonies

Can't figure out why I feel so at home here.

 

Yes, I'll keep an eye on it for you .

I see you've named your Mini . I always did like Samwise, he's a great example of a good hobbit.

 

I hope it suits him... determined, loyal and trustworthy.

So what is the deal with the SDMike Support Unit thing (I assumed that Tigs was Mike's wife and that made sense... You all move to a commune or something.

Or is this a BORG thing. What do I need to do to "be assimilated"??

 

, assimilated, I like that. Actually, I've felt like I've been an un-official member of the support unit for some time so I asked about making it official and Tigsie was all for it. I'm also now an honorary member of the West Coast Mini club, at least according to Tig.

Mike has several support unit members to help him out. I'll admit I have a severe case of MOCD but I think Mike has a worse case so I've been doing what I can to help him with it whenever I can.

 

As promised Mike, here is the latest screen capture from sailwx just in case you don't check it in the next 5.5 hours. Though for some reason I don't see that not happening .



It looks like she hasn't updated though, at least not quite yet.

 

Ah hah, here you go Mike, I knew if I waited long enough it would finally update. This is info the latest and greatest on the Carmen.

 

Weeeeeeeeee're hooooooooooooome.

Simpson...you are as much as part of the WCM family now as anyone. We're equal opportunity lovers in West Coast MINI. You fit riiiight in

We'll need to tag your MINI when we get the pleasure of meeting you!

 

Gary... thank you so kindly for helping.. I was able to sit back and tolerate 2 hours and 20 minutes of..."Arry!!" and "Agrid!" knowing the Carmen would be in your sights

Glad to see the Support Unit/WCM has another member makes me feel good to know people are pulling for me as I go through this process. Thanks buddy for showin your support!

 

Thank you. As my wife said, we live on the West Coat don't we?? I'm actually thinking of making it official and sending in whatever information and dues that may be necessary though it is highly unlikely I'll ever be able to do anything than provide online support.

 

Not true...wait a sec...

WCM goes to AMVIV...a small contingent is headed to MITM....we're discussing going to MOTD...and we have an annual 3 day trip to Monterey, Cambria, and Big Sur.

You could hook up with us at any of those things. And when y'all feel the need to get away...you ALWAYS have a place to crash here in San Diego...and a fleet of MINIs at your fingertips.

Mike will send you a PM with website information.

 

No problem Mike, I'm right there with you, well, actually a few weeks ahead, but I know your pain very well.

The whole NAM community is very supportive. Without it, I don't know what I would have done the past few months. Your humor and excitement helps to ease the pain for me and I'm sure for many others as well. I'm more than glad to help in return.

I'm off to bed, have a great night!!

 

Geeez, it is starting to look like a love-in. You kids need help, serious help. I do enjoy watching the inventive posts.

You westies sure do know how to have fun. Hey unixgal, you need to fix that certificate.

Mike, I'm sure your MEGA-MINI will be fine as it floats slowly across the Atlantic. (stressing the slowly).

Keep up the good work, I guess SimpsonGI should form the TRACKING-R-US group.

Thanks for the fun laughs.

 

Let me know when you are coming to Big Sur/Monterey. I'm in Carmel Valley. Perhaps I could meet you. Or, plan to be far far away. Not sure which is best...

 

MEAN!

 

Just missed us, we were up there the first part of June But can't wait till next year! We will definately stay in touch and let you know when we are coming.

 

You going to MITM, Robin?

 

So when you say 'tag your MINI' is this like a dog tagging a tree? Or does it involve spray paint?

 

No, wont work out for me this year.
