Morning guys...

In Tulsa today, heading up the pike to joplin in a few hours. Tonight is the big Sign Association banquet. Which is just an excuse to get dressed up, eat a really expensive meal we don't have to pay for, and to pick up my $1k scholarship check. :D

Oh and free drinks. :D :D

Porsche-poor 08-12-2011 08:16 AM

have fun and make sure to have check in hand before drinking.

porsche4life 08-12-2011 09:35 AM

Of course!

what, you think i don't mean it? my ducati tops out at just over 130MPH (one tooth smaller in front and one tooth larger in back). and that was on curves in weber canyon on I84. see below for a link to google maps (mountain green past devil's slide). i could feel the rear wheel skipping on the cracks in the poured cement of the freeway.

my 951, well.... i topped it out in 4th gear. 125MPH, indicated. i felt that going into fifth and continuing the experiment was just asking for trouble.

Sadly glen I won't make it. Tomorrow is the trade show and various fun. Tomorrow night is the poolside party. This is the first tristate sign expo. Should be interesting.

nynor 08-12-2011 01:24 PM

per my previous re. timing belt: what a pain in the arse.

sid, see the 944 area for a description of my woes....

porsche4life 08-12-2011 01:30 PM

We are not an item yet...and we ended up not going to the range...she wasn't really feeling up to it...we did however have a very nice dinner and couple of drinks.
I've been told by a close mutual friend that the mutual attraction is obvious. We have just been kinda dancing around the 3 issues that have held me up:
1. The 21 year age difference
2. She is technically my boss (at a job I don't need but took because she asked me to)
3. We work for the catholic church and some of the people in admin there are terribly judgemental
Life is a sonofa*****, but I guess there are worse problems.

10 miles! I did it! Now to keep it up, like last season. I need to toss these bearings. Too many miles and it shows.

GH85Carrera 08-12-2011 07:05 PM

Stijn!!
 
We are about to get another thunderstorm. Possible 65 MPH winds.

Tomorrow we be a busy and social day for me. It starts with a haircut then El Camino meeting for breakfast then to the Porsche club car show at Hooters. I get a short break until 6:00 pm and then we eat dinner with my dad & his girlfriend. Whew

Porsche-poor 08-12-2011 07:10 PM

tired from yelling rocky style?

sounds like fun. I am missing out on the local swap meet due to conflicts with kids that can't drive yet.

slodave 08-12-2011 07:17 PM

Phone book and a fake mustache.. Let 'em have the keys.

Porsche-poor 08-12-2011 07:19 PM

mind if use your car?

slodave 08-12-2011 07:26 PM

Toyota? Sure... :D

Porsche-poor 08-12-2011 07:29 PM

that would be my respose as well. Stupid neighbor asked last night if I'd let him drive the 911 around the block. do you know how hard it is to keep beer from coming out of your nose swallow and not laugh your butt off at the same time?

porsche4life 08-12-2011 08:20 PM

Picked up my check. Went to the casino floor, wandered around and lost $19 to the machines. Pointless BS....

Porsche-poor 08-12-2011 08:29 PM

$19 thats all good for you

porsche4life 08-12-2011 08:36 PM

Much like my dad, I think I would rather flip quarters....
