DFW is at a complete standstill - schools are closed, roads are empty. I went out in the bug but would not try it in a 928.
Helped push a few cars out of dips where they lost traction - nice to see the look on their faces when I get out in my shorts and T shirt.
Cold this is not cold its BBQ weather - wimps!!!


....And he wonders why i run a personal heater at my desk while i'm wearing layers and layers of clothes. */>cough-coughnotnormalcough-cough*/(

Roger, that is no way to dress. You can't get good traction to push with that kind of shoes!

We have 30 attending so far...

I'm bringing my "Shotglass" Dessert.

Looking forward to having some cocktails with my favorite people.

Last minute decision was made for me on this, apparently we are having to go to the daughters Nutcracker performance, except she is not in it this year.

Sorry guys, have fun and tell the crew hey from us.
