You got that right! My wife, Leah, Chris' Patti (fiance), Dan's Erin, Tifo's Renee, Andy's gal, Kenny's dame, etc., etc., ...
For them to put up with us Porschephiles is a wonderful thing.

Cory - Whatchoo mean about the "manequin" from 944-Fest - the correct term is "Dummy"!!!

Thanks again, all.

Dale.

Jerad the difference is amazing either that or mine was just completely dead, unbelievable difference for the price/performance ratio, something that should have been done sooner on my car.

I almost forgot about finishing my story. I got back and after uploading those pics (with appropriate punch-lines) I've been busy doing all of the homework I neglected over the last 2 days. Back to the dog...

Well it kinda' started with the Jello shots at the Fest. Me, Dan87951, Jerad, Chris, Wade, Leah and the list goes on. We all know that Wade/Leah & Chris made the Jello shots that were brought to the Fest. Well guess who was all at the gathering this weekend 1) Wade, 2) Leah 3) Chris & 4) You guesse it "Mr. Party Animal". Leah started feeding the dog jello shots early in the afternoon. before 6:00PM the dog had probably finished off about 4 or 5 of them. Leah took off and Wade tacked a few more on there. Dale started playin' with the dog and it had a "noticable" stagger from all of the Jello shots. This dog took to those Jello shots like a new born calf to the tit.

Leah came back and she started feeding the dog more shots and then Chris started hand feed them to the dog. As the story goes, the dog became a very mean drunk and started growling at anything that moved. I tried to pet him while he was in the car when I left in the morning and he growl'd and wanted to nip at me (little dog syndrome for sure).

So anyway - here is the proof of this whole story and I guess the finally!!! We'll call this the "The Proof Is In The Jello" story... Here's the mean drunk in action...


Later dudes

Albiet a bit delayed, I wanted to personally thank Wade and Leah for the great get together on Saturday. It was great to see all of the 944fest folks againd and GOBOGIE it was great to meet your brother.
Sorry I had to blow out early as i am SURE I missed the best part of the evening--fireworks and fireside drinking!
Thanks for the food, drink and wrenching session and hope to see y'all again soon.

Wow, Cory, thanks for all the time you put into sharing that event with the rest of us. It makes me want to drive the 450 miles to join you guys!

My favorite caption: The wastegate says to the pipe "what are they going to do with me?" Pipe says to the wastegate "we all get recycled... you'll be reborn into a new Porsche". Wastegate says "ahhhh I'm ready now... beam me up Scotty"

Which car??!! I'd love to see your 944 back on the road Michelle..
It's disheartening to think you are missing all those (s)miles in an NA

I swear it's almost every weekend here, and lemme tell ya, some wrenching actually occurs from time to time!!

Actually, Chris just arrives early, snags a garage bay, takes his car apart, and starts drinking.




Just Kiddin' man. This is too easy...like shootin' fish in a barrel.
