Matt, great meeting you and your coworkers. We'll have to have a road trip up to the DFW area in the near future. Lots of good memories from there as that is where I met my wife and both my kids were born (in that order ).

The Rennlister who lives in the selected suburb of the month could choose the eating location and be responsible for getting us a table. Comments?

Or, we could meet at someones house for Monday night football, etc.... Pizza and a beer or two could make for a cheap evening where arrival time wasn't as critical.
Outstanding idea Keith. I'm up for that. My problem this month was that I was behind at work. Way behind. I've been literally doing two people's jobs for two months and committed to get caught up for our management committee meeting (basically a board meeting for an LLC). So, I had to work a lot and long hours. My wife having the kidney stone didn't help.

But, the meeting was pretty good one (even though there was some bad news) and now I have a 4 day weekend. WOO HOO! I did basically nothing today except wash and polish the car.

Anyway, I like Keith's idea and should be able to make meetings on a regular basis.

Actually, I live around the corner from James.

Speaking of cats......

Anybody want one? We discovered a momma and 5 kittens in the garage last night. They're cute as hell. About 2-3 weeks old at this point.

Hehe. You think Kevin has spare parts......

I have a whole half-sized shed dedicated that holds spare wheels and tires, two engine blocks, and a bumper cover from a Japanese Primera that was damaged in a fatal accident in New Zealand. I cut it in half to see how I would mount one on my Dead Red G20.

In the garage I still have the Dead Red G20 (with turbo engine, coilovers, etc), a garage full off woodworking machines, a hoist, a compressor, and a bunch of stuff for the race car (and stuff that came off it).

Yes. It's time to clean the garage.
