:-(

MC-Pointy-Burns-D regretfully informed me that our
available dates were not compatible this time around,
but perhaps on his next trip we'll actually plan ahead
a little and throw together a pub run.

So sorry, no stories are forthcoming.

Maybe next time though.

Or perhaps EuroPaul just didn't want to hear me whine about the two of you
getting together before he and I finally met IRL. You know how I can be.

Considering that, can you believe that someone is actually willing to spend the
rest of his life with me? My Crew Chief proposed to me this past weekend. <g>

Congratulations!  I can believe it.  Obviously he didn't want to wait
any longer to see if anybody else was willing to ...

Are you kidding? Nobody else gets along with my dad this well. I have to marry
him. It's my best shot at keeping him as my Crew Chief. <g>

Congratulations!

Wow, the single folks in the group are dropping like flies...

I mean how wonderful! :-D

No worries, friend.  I'll be holding up the standard for life.  I am
most assuredly committed to non-committed.

Heh. Remember, I've been married before. I know what I'm getting into. Only,
just like I'm always telling you guys to find women who are into cars, I was
smart enough to snag a mechanic this time. Not to mention the fact that he's a
bad a.s race car driver, too. He built me a race car and now we get to drive it
together. How cool is that?

That is _very_ cool. I'll have to see if my wife's done
welding up the cage in the Audi.

*pad pad pad*

Shoot, she hasn't even started yet! It's almost like she
doesn't think I'm serious! Hmmmph!

Was she too busy giving it a roof extension,  fitting the sliding side door
& the swivelling captain's cabin chairs? ??

That won't be the half of it (!)

How true: my girlfriend totalled my car (not the red one, be reassured)
a few weeks ago, and now puts maximum pressure on me to replace it by a
minivan...

How machiavelic.

You don't expect her to wear the French maid's uniform AND weld a new cage in
the Audi, now do you?

<<Shoot, she hasn't even started yet! It's almost like she doesn't think I'm

Perhaps if you held your breath until you turned blue?

Not with this one, she's as stubborn as I am. S'pose that's
part of the reason we're together.

I gotta say I like Iaiaiaiaaan's idea of the AAF wedding run.

Now whether it'll be for yours or Paulo's only time will tell...

A double wedding? I've been toying with the idea of renting  Mid-America
Motorplex and having all the guests spend the weekend hot lapping.

Well, _that_ sets the imagination running.  ;^)

Mental image:  exotic car shop.  scantily clad young female mechanics.
Sign over the door:   Tinker Belles.  ;^)

*bzzt* (changing mental channels)

Film: "Better Off Dead".  Character: Monique:  French, supportive, and a
motor-head.  <homer>mmm</homer>  (Okay, so she's a Dodgers fan --
nobody's perfect.)

Trivia:  Anyone else recognize the part being held up when "Lane" asks,
"Can you put that back where it goes?"

Have I been under the hood too much if I say I noticed that it's a CIS
fuel distributor from a 4-cyl, and has no place at all in a Camaro?

I think you've got yourself a money maker there.

My Crew Chief is worse than that. For Halloween we went to see a Boingo tribute
band playing at a rather odd, little venue in downtown Long Beach. It was an
art gallery and the theme was Masque of the Red Death. There were a number of
displays. Everything from performance artists to altar installations to fetish
photography and sculpture. Some of the photographs were rather interesting.
Lots of women in leather strappy things and platform heels. One photo showed a
woman sitting on the hood of a car kissing the back of a man's neck who had
another woman standing in front of him bent over with her back to him. It
seemed pretty clear what was happening in the picture, at least, to me it did.
My Crew Chief glanced at it as we were walking by and said only, "Oh, a '71
Camaro."

Conratulations (I guess i's in order although you didn't reveal the answer).
So that's Miss C and the CC, future c's maybe even?

<<Conratulations (I guess i's in order although you didn't reveal the

I can't tell you how many people have asked me if I actually said yes. That is
the second most common question right after people ask what the wedding date
is. Like I don't get to enjoy an engagement first!

<<So that's Miss C and the CC, future c's maybe even?>>

Gods, no! Would you want something that weighed over 7 pounds passing thru any
orifice of your body? Ain't gonna happen here. No way, no how, no sir! Besides,
my driving suit wouldn't fit anymore.

CONGRATS!!!!

My wife and I just got married in October.  Expensive stressful time, but it
was worth it.  I'm still feeling the hurt from the cost, but memories last
forever(hopefully).

If anyone is interested - ricanddeanna d0t com

Good Luck and the best to both of you

Thank you, thank you! I'm looking forward to getting it all over and done with.
Being married is way more fun than getting married.

I'm hoping that I'm not too old to get funding for a wedding. <eg>
