Thumbs up The wonderful people you meet along the way justify the journey..

I just got back after talking to Triscadek- His father passed away this week, and I realized on the journey of life we are all blessed by the people we know, the people we meet, and the friends we make.

This may be weak, but I care and would help any one of ya.


So, all that being said... Thank you to all.
Especially- Hoffman 912, Triscadek, MichelleJD, Iloveporsches, nine-44, x-boost, DanP, Perry951, WadeB, Chris's Chick, Pete944, Nickhance, Brrt, GoBogie, Tifo, SH944, FR Wilk, Sam Grant, Danno, Devia, Dan87951, Jason (AWESOME 924s).. The attendees at 944 fest, Hershey and Tweeks for the last few years...and to all the others who helped me along the way.. Love ya all..

Even frigging Timmy and Sid Vicious... bastards, I still love ya.

If I missed some names I am deeply sorry- this was a sperm of the moment post.

I just needed to recognize all of the Rennlist 12 stepper's in my life.

Without you my car would be a rusting hulk along the roadway, as would I.

On a side note Chris, are you still interested in my tires? I was going to possibly mount them on a set of rims otherwise, just let me know.


BTW, you may want to recheck your post for any Freudian Spelling Errors .

the 215's would be too wide- I 'm thinking of mothballing the 924S for the winter anyway.. I dont have the funds to get her winterworthy. I'm able to keep it for now, all I really wanted was to nat have to sell her.

Thanks though.. Mount 'em and run 'em.

Thanks Chris, and right back at ya. Life would be very boring to live it alone, and I treasure the friends whom I have a lot in common with. 944fest 04 is in the rough planning stages and I'm staggered by the complex requirements I'm imagining up for a site. The most important one is someplace to share the comradderie, the place to sit around and swap stories and share a few frosties. The lodging, camping, parking, wrenching, cruising, and washing areas are secondary to that. If you ever find yourself in the Cleveland area drop us a line, the guest room is always open!

Chris ; indeed, the personalities on this board are far more interesting then the cars. It is always a pleasure to see a person's wisdom grow. Sadly , it sometimes takes an event like this for us to look inward and figure out what is really important.

Thanks Chris. Same to you and Patty. Good people/friends are a rarity in this world (even the ones who type before we think... translation "ME")

Take Care Everybody!!!

I'm filling up!

Seriously though, it was a pleasure to meet you at Tweeks. Keep talking to strangers.

Chris- You are no stranger than I... I couldnt remember the handle- But I remember the accent. Was great to meet You, the better half and the offspring .

This was my Thanksgiving recognition for all- since you'll all be with family next Thursday enjoying.. and NONE of us will be discussing Porsche for 1 day. Its tough to remember to leave the petty family arguments aside sometimes and enjoy each other's company.

So enjoy the dry turkey. Eat that red stuff that someone else made. and remember that we all touch other people's lives whether we mean to or not.

ok, now that that's over... let the SHOPPING begin!

Food for thought.
Since when does the official start of christmas shopping begin in October?
Is it wrong for us whitey's to celebrate Kwanzaa? Sammy Davis Jr. celebrated Hannukah...

he he he.. sperm of the moment.. That was a line my MOM used to use when I was in my formative youth. It's there on purpose.
She LOVED Norm Crosby..
