One time Wayne PMed me to help me with an issue I was having with my Boxster. I felt like I received a get well card from the President himself.

Still get all goose pimply thinking about it.

Ah ummm... I don't think I've had one. I'm going to have to think about this.

Not responding to yet another post by someone who suffers from cranial-rectal syndrome.
Sometimes it is so tempting. You have to be strong and resist.

I can’t top it, but I did match it.

I wonder how she is doing? I think they got her healthy and her lungs continue to work. Last Facebook entry is from last year.

The day I posted "My build is finished" or more rather "She is alive". I tore apart a perfectly fine 85 Carrera and did a backdate. Learned how to do everything myself, welding, prep, paint, etc. Car was down to a bare shell in my garage. Felt proud of that accomplishment.

I don't faceplant, but it's great to know she's doing well. Thanks.

Not really anything in particular, but whenever I post something on here that I have repaired, restored, or improved, you guys always make me feel proud of my accomplishments and I thank y'all!!!

Can't think of my "proudest" moment on ppot.
I can think of a lot of "not so proud" moments.

There were a couple of behind the scene moments.

My proudest "I'm glad I am a member of ppot"- though- is Elissa.

I hosted a motorcycle ride 17 years ago when I lived in Tahoe. That was a lot of work!

I’m not on Facebook either, but that link is public, so you can see at least some of it.

Being new, I have a simple claim. I'm proud of doing my best to treat every member with the respect and consideration we're all due.
Do I always do that? Probably not.
Is my desire because I'm smarter than anyone here? Definitely not.

But I'm smart enough to realize that what I post reflects my character, not the character of other's.

So thank y'all for indulging me as I crash headlong into y'all's forum.

I got Hugh to buy me a nice dinner. His wife is charming, smart.

Oh yeah, I got a bunch of free clothes for my grandson from Shaun. Quality stuff, everything lasted through at least 2 grandkids.
