Tags , badges ?! We don' need no stinkin' badges !! :-) Aw, fine if we must .. Actually, I would benefit from this more than others, my memory sucks, especially when it comes to people's names so this way I won't have to greet anyone with a " Hey...you ! , buddy, old pal.. " and then wait for someone new to introduce themselves to the person so I can catch both names ! :-) :-)

Speaking of names, Flash I have a challenge for you : given this is the last hurrah, see if you can track down Ron and Dave G. and bribe them ( or threaten them ) into joining us - I think they both still have their 968s..

Ok, I'm going to email, text and call Mr. RG ( midblu are you reading this ?! ) until he runs out of excuses not to join ; " I have a thing to go to .." " must wash my cat that day " " pants giving me a wedgie and I don't have another pair I can wear " " too windy and my hair will get messed up " " it's only two weeks before my birthday and I have to prepare " .. yada, yada, yada , blah, blah, blah :glare: :rolleyes:

Ds I'm delighted to see others suffer from this name memory problem. Couldn't be our age could it? Lol I've always disliked the little sticky things you put on your jacket which eventually fall off. But useful for knowing someone's name. Or looking where one shouldn't with a legitimate excuse!

Right you are, Rap - name tags makes us look like we're at some friggin' convention ( I hate conventions ) . Wait, we are at a convention, LOL.. Besides, sticky tags and expensive clothes don't mix, so hopefully Flash has added the names to the ones we wear around our necks during wine tasting.. Flash ?
As for my name I have a solution; I'll just wear this t-shirt so everyone knows who I am ( though it'll ruin a long held secret for the general public ) :ph34r:

The car has now been rented. I trust my SoCal members will be kind enough to give us another exception on the choice of car due to the distance travelled. Same as last year! Jays recommendation last year was once again engaged. His hotel advice was superb, so we thought we would use Shade again. Times a tickin

Flash if I can get my car back to life in time I'll be coming. Right now the center console and the dash have been removed and the entire interior wiring harness is in the process of coming out. Fun times!

I'm in, I wasn't sure that I was going to be on the mainland for this event, but now it appears as if my Guam project won't start construction until June. I'll have about 2 months to get it completed before the summer monsoon rains come. There is at least one big bomb, probably a 1000 pounder that was partially excavated last year before the monsoon. It will be the first order of business. Fun times.
