How far is it from the race track I remember so well when I used to race mod. stock cars myself... Guys like Jeff bodine and his #1 red pinto along with the highly competitive Bouchard's were a major factor then. I Hope Chieslowsky got rid of his Polish calander to make the date this time....In fact I heard from Phil Ghe he's been raving about the latest hot Polish cocktail... Peirre and water...

Moi? Too much fun? Nah.... Never happened... Had a terrible time... Yeah, yeah... that's it... Awful time. The weather was too nice. The host was too gracious. There was just too much talent running around that shop. The pizza was too delicious for my tastes. Sheesh, even the entry fee was too cheap... LOL!
I am looking forward to Part Three so I can be just as disappointed as the last one. I am such a glutton for punishment... Hahahahahahaha!

I just checked, the Saturday night races start that Saturday at 6pm. I personally would hope most people would be starting another panel at that time, but the option is there for race fans I guess. Dana, Yes! girls are allowed (I prefer cute single ones) It would be great if you made it this year, just to keep those guys at the meet and out of the strip clubs!

Honestly Dana, Bruce was crying the whole time about how he wished you were there for inspiration. He was so upset that he made a panel for me to forget to bring home with me. So this year you have to show up to make sure that he makes me a new panel and to make sure I remember to take the darn thing home with me.
We sure did miss you last year!! (and I dont even know you yet)

Just to give you guys a heads-up warning...
I'm in the process of trying to finagle the weekend off of work. I usually work in the infirmary on Saturdays. They need me in there because we also host low cost spay/neuters that day. But that particular weekend, the clinic is cancelled!
So, tomorrow I have to talk a friend into volunteering that day to help cover for me. I'm also gonna see if I can switch regular days off with my co-worker that has Mondays off. No one has that Friday off, so that's ok.
If all goes well there, then the next step is figuring out what to do with the 'boys'. I have a couple people I can ask to watch them.
Bert's really portable, crate trained, quiet, loves to ride in the car and is incredibly cute... if it would be ok with everyone (including the hotel!!) and ESPECIALLY the host, could we bring him with? I have baggies in the car already...

Hey Dana, would be nice if you could come along to hold Bruce's hand but don't worry I checked, there are no strip clubs around the area, so he probably will stay at the meet this year. Which would be nice, I wiould like to meet him and Boone.
Hey Joe, Can you bring some of that special wood that doesnt make wood chips?

Hotels???What are you, getting soft on us, Karyn? Be a real letterhead, sleep in your car! Or better yet, stay up all night painting and telling war stories! Wee do'need no steenking hotels!
Ken, you're wrong about strip clubs. Providence has a bunch of 'em, and that's only ten minutes away. I think some of them even have "amateur night", in case Karyn is thinking about a new career.
Needless to say, I'll be there. At the meet, I mean. Yeah, that's it.

Hi folks- I'm thinkin' about coming up too. Karen, a twin mattress fits great in the back of a pick-up. A 4x8 is too hard and may contain splinters. I am no camper, tho, and will look for upcoming hotel info. Mebbe I'll follow Kissy up. Can I bring my pug, Weezer? love- JILL ps just kidding about the dog Mike Zee will help us paak aaa caaaas.

karyn no need to sleep in your truck. I think the hotels are going to be pretty cheap, and you could always share a room with me... I mean Jill oh and Jill, the proper way to type in yankee is to take the "r" off the end of the word and add "ah" also if it inds in "o" or "e" replace with "a".....so, park the car in Harvard yard~ would be ~pahk tha caah in Hah-vahd yahd but, I wouldnt poke to much fun, cuz chances ah you be da one with the funny accent, unless Steve and Barb show up, eh? you know what im talking abooot, eh? Looks like there might be a few funny talkin New yorkahs there too, Yo!

Not to worry; I hear from the grapevine that Joe Chiselowski has made several matresses from his "Chips", that's cool Joe just don't use those black wallnut chips. The N.Y. Tymes said there is going to be three kinds of "Chowdah" available, Manhatten for those from the Bronx,(Howie with his "Bell bottom Tee shirt"),Rhode Island, for Cam who sticks the arc welder electrode into the cup to heat it up, and New England in case one of those Indians from Ledyard shows up... and for Karen Bush, the "sperm whales" are expected to be sighted off the coast under the full moon...

Hey Ken, I was BORN on Mother's Day. I don't need to make her a panel because she already has the best gift a mom could have, ME! (at least that's what she says, other people tell me I have one of those faces only a...how does that go?).
I'm not working on a panel, but have dusted off the acoustic, and polishing up a short set of songs to irritate you with. A couple new things since last time, and I'mm be sure to bring Songpainter CDs this time if anybody wants to make a purchase. It will be cool if Steve & Barb are there, they could accept the payment in person.

I'm still trying to manipulate my way out there this year.....hmmmm...maybe I can hitch a ride with my buddie Ernie....
heck, we've clocked over a thousand miles together already, year before last, sure he won't mind a few hundred more! Ernie, isn't it time I retouch that dolphin on your wall?
There are some wonderful and very inexpensive youth hostels as i recall from last year when I made plans to go....and if you are a member it's like 15 bucks a night.
If that doesn't work out I'll be willing to split a room with any of the girls who don't smoke...
