Sorry, I missed that subtle point.

OUCH!!!!

Why would I drive 8 hours round trip to get this type of abuse when I can get the same abuse in the comfort of my home?

True, but it's way more fun in person.

I'll tell you this, I got great pleasure out of meeting Dell today - it's a marvel of the modern world that you can meet for the first time after knowing someone for several years. It was the oddest first meeting I've ever had - felt like we had been having coffee together every week.

You're just afraid that I'll drag Phil down here - believe me, we've had the conversation.

Wayne, it was pretty cool to put another RL'er face with a name. Especially somebody that I have known so well after all these years

Alex, You are correct. It's after 3 meetings that you make the list! Just kidding, I'm sure Scott was trying to recall all the new people since the group grew significantly over the last month. If our other regulars were there we would have had well over 20! I'm sure there were a few not listed. I recall my "sister car" wasn't listed as well.

Yes, it is amazing to actually meet someone in person after "knowing them" for a few years. Dell was the first Rennlister I met in person.

I'm still traveling back to Dallas every other weekend. In fact, I am in Dallas this weekend. I'll make it to the Wake Zone one of the weekends I am in Greenville. It would be great to meet both you and Phil in person.

Alex, sorry about that. I made the list from the picture I took and I missed you.

Yeah, missed Gus as well; he left before pictures were taken.

Keep giving this old man a hard time and I'll require roll call and a sign up sheet!

Yeah, I'll be in PA every other weekend. The good news is that the apartment that I found yesterday is just 10 mins from Wake Zone, so I should be good to go for future meetings.

You better get your butt up here, or I'll be down there to drag you up here for coffee. BTW, Dell said that he has some Honda mufflers in his dumpster for you.

Yeah, it just felt natural to hang out. You have a great group there and I'm going to have fun getting to know everyone.

It's cool ... this time ...

Just thought you might not know my name. There has been so many people there both times I haven't had a chance to introduce myself to everyone yet.

Hey, Tim - would love to make a run up to Cary, myself. Let me a know a day when you're thinking about going up from Greenville and I'll make every effort to tag along. Would be a great road trip.
