Go to a Dr. And get a prescription for Flonase. One snort up each nostril and you are clear and no strange feelings.

In due time. Once we start building the new suspension rather than cobbling together an adjustable camber system for this current one (for getting tire data to validate the theory of the new suspension) I will take some pics. And if we do driving I will bring my camera along. We might drive this weekend. If not by next weekend.

Well, if you don't mind strange feelings then you don't need to go to a doctor for that...

(As if posting pics of her online isn't creepy...) Well, if you have a model's release, at least you'll be covered.

Yeah. What I meant by due time was that I need there to be something else I can be photographing in addition to her.

If you can't wait you should be able to see her facebook profile picture.

Well then, quit slackin' on PPOT and get to work, young man. You've got a racecar to build. And Dave and I can still volunteer our diagnostic and test driving services. You know, in case you guys (and gal) need help...in person.

They don't let you build without grilling you on the theory behind it and to succssfully defend yourself you need data and numbers- simulations and calcs if the test data is limited. So first order of business is rather boring stuff.

The first day when we were talking about cars there was an amazingly funny moment but one during which I needed to keep my poker face on. She was saying something about how she can sort of drive stick (shift). I so wanted to say something not so clean there but like Rick I contained myself. Maybe I will show her some double-clutching in the BMW.

I did not want to test her sense of humor on the first day of the year-long project.

Holding back is me not getting slapped. Trust me there have been many many times Tweeze has said something that in person I would have run with. I just behave in written form.

So, Rick; since she is not here what would you have said in person?

Okay young man, you have to be a little more cleaver than that for me to fall for it. Nice try though, come back again in a few more years and try again.
