It's amazing how many beers you can drink in an airport bar in 12 hours.

ROTFLMAO, not to many buddy, you have to drive home and you don't want to spend the night in the huscow and have to wait to bail of your car.

I guest you're almost there!!

You're not leaving Andrew's place tonight hey?
Drink few (more ) beers around the car tonight. Enjoy the moment and leave tomorrow.
Assuming it is alright with Andrew (and his wife) too!
I'm sure he will have a lot to tell you about your new car.

Have a nice and safe trip back.
Send us some picks as soon as you can.

Well, Steve is pumped! He loves his new car. Took it out for a quick spin around the neighborhood. I won't comment on his ***** driving.

We've had several beers while getting to know the car and are just hitting the rack. He says he's getting up at o'dark thirty, but I think he might sleep in a bit.

This car is going to a great guy who's going to fit in with the 928 group just fine.

G'night.

Might have a problem...

Steve called me from a gas station in eastern Ohio. Coolant light came on. Reservoir is empty.

Sounds like the beer is helping you remember things!
