JPP is good people
Bit of a late response to a good deed by our local Holiness, JP.
As some know, I wasn't able to attend that most amazing Porsche-orgy, RRIV. I sent my tickets to JP a few days before the event and he graciously got them to people who could use them. Proceeds went to JoAnne's fanatstic cause (running for boobies is a great cause, yes?).
Well, about a week after RRIV ended, I came home to find a note on my door from the postman: package available for pickup. Hmmmm, was I being served? Audited? Fired? A trip to pickup "the package" resulted in a long, white tube from California. Hmmmm......I don't recall ordering anything from an "enhancement" catalog. Then I spotted a familiar name, the package was from JP!
Inside, "the package" was a poster and program from RRIV. I LOVE this kind of stuff! I collect books, magazines, brochures, hell ANYTHING Porsche (sometimes Ferrari and others too) related.
JP, I thank you VERY much. You, and many others here, are a reminder that people can be kind and generous. Nice to know in this day and age.

Tim-- It was great when you called before RRIV with news you might make it.
While leaving dinner in Monterey Moffat-less, I asked good peep JP what happened.
Bet I was nearly as bummed as you when I heard the 'paperwork issue' that kept you up north
Yes, the Popester is goodness. From a hint in a PM he sent, & if the mailman hurries up, I might receive reason to start a sequel thread.
Well done, Jon Paul! Maybe if I hang out with you more often, I might be mistaken for being a respectable Speedster owner
...or, more deservedly, I can at least make 'confession' to his eminence

I know it's been said many times already, but I have to second all the comments here. A real stand up guy. But then, how can you expect any less from his holiness?
Also lest we forget a big
for 'timothymoffat' as well. His generosity and sense of community allowed me to park in the corrall next to all those other fine cars. My 3yr old couldn't get enough of it and now has "Porsha" permanently etched in her mind. She even points them out on the street as we're driving by. This is what makes Porsche ownership so awesome. It's a great car surrounded by an enthusiastic community of fantastic people.

Hey, it was my great pleasure to meet you, the very first RL'r I literally almost ran into in the parking lot of our hotel when we pulled in on Friday morning
And I couldn't agree more .. Tim is an incredibly generous and gracious dude! I just got a feeling we are all going to meet up at RRV with Timmothy next time :-)

I'm not so sure of any of this mumbo jumbo JP is a great guy stuff
Look at that smirk of him in his avatar, it's like he is throwing it in all of our faces that he has 1 of 2.5 993 Speedsters and we don't.
Yep, I just saw him do it again.....
Yep, he is looking right at me.....
My RB Cab is crap.....
He is better than me.....
See, Jedi mind **** right there, **** me!
On a positive note, I got a new name change! Wheeee, that was for you MagDaddy!
I'm officially Spidey 993 (not Spidey 993TT). Prince, eat me!
