I hope you're right. Anything to cease my "How to tie a noose" Google searches...

Tough to find something with a garage for the 964.

Where do you guys meet up?

If you'll be working downtown, you're probably looking in the best places. But if you will be commuting to Kanata or the south end, you really should consider either Kanata or Manotick. Lots of larger, newer homes with multiple-car garages. Here's a web site that may be helpful, instead of wearing out shoe leather or tires:

We meet at the Starbucks in the Trainyards shopping centre - Industrial Ave east of Riverside.

If the plates weren't off the car, I'd be tempted to hit the Trainyards this Sunday!

Fired the 911 up today, what a symphony! I've missed her growl...

Now to get some Ontario plates!

Saw a 911 rolling top-down this afternoon on the way home from work... I'd say the cars are out already!

Yup. In fact, I'm here (there?) right now.

Nice finally meeting you today Norm!

Now back on topic...

17 degrees forecasted for Sunday... any takers for coffee?

My 911 will be out at Kirby's but I can slum it on my motorbike if the weather holds...

Good to meet you too Dave....Sundays are not the best for me because of church but maybe I can break away to meet you guys for coffee once in a while.

I am getting my front bumper back on with new tow hook, putting oil in and firing the beast up this weekend. Looks like beautiful weather...
