you could still do paypal but my card dont work to get the money out and they are telling me that they want 20.00 for a new card and that they will gladly take it out of my account so that dont help me any. The money will just stay in there and be in limbo since i dont have a new bank account yet. So i prefer money orders but whatever is easier for everyone. Im not hard to get along with as most of you know and whoever argues that point will be eating dog food and not the good canned kind come the 21st of august. lol.. well guys im off to the fair im doing its a 10 day long fair and we are on day 3 God help me. I dont know what makes me want to do these fairs like this. but matt rhino and jerry you are all now on the list to eat and elindy you are now off the list to eat if you change your mind it would be great seeing you... Have a great day guys off i go... Stay safe out there riding.

Jerry, you are a braver man than I! If my wife had advised me in that manner that I could go I would probably lower my tattered flag, fold my tent and tell the rest of the group that I had decided it was best (for my future safety) to remain in town and assist with getting the Prodigal Son established at school. At the end of the rally we will all line up & salute you as you proudly ride out, with all flags flying, to your ultimate doom! The Charge at Little Round Top will echo down the years to sustain you! May God Bless you & Keep You. Gene


I dunno Gene "Go ahead and go" seemed pretty clear to me.

Ahhh, Jerry, after all these years of married life & you still don't know how to "read between the lines". So many times our ladies say one thing while really meaning the complete opposite! The silent post script to your brides's "go ahead and go" was "if you want to come back to a cold & empty house, I will be on vacation in the Bahamas, which I will need after getting OUR son enrolled!" As I said, you are a brave (read fool hardy) man.

Holly, I prefer to Dine, it sounds more appealing.

Phil, whether you "eat" or "dine" all I can say is you had better get to the food before the boys from Conn. or you will find a bare table! There are 2 restaurants in the VMD area that we probably would not be welcome to return! I am not concerned that we will have any "left overs" after "dineing"!

I'm not sure that "dining" is the correct term for the scuffle that ensued at several "all you can eat" buffets at VMD. I usually only get a bowl of Cheerios for breakfast . . . Gene held his own . . . for the first day.

Holly,

I'm sending the MO for 2 Ct "diners" in the morning mail. Our group of The Connecticut Four has been "downsized". Rumors of our appetites are greatly exaggerated. Heh heh heh. But Kevin and I will do our best. We developed a taste for Dutch cooking at VMD.

Rich, as my dear old mother used to say, "if I loved a lier I would hug your neck". I am not sure you got a bowl of cheerios but I KNOW you hauled some heavy plates back to the table at the Dutch Hertiage!! If you mean I was able to stagger back to the table with one plate for every two you guys hauled in, then, yeah I held my own! I am sorry Dave & Ernie won't be there, they will be missed. Of course, this frees up about 6 portions for other folks at Holly's dinner.

BTW, Holly I mailed a mo for two for the dinner. It will be good to see you again.

Just a note and reminder to all who are considering coming to the rally but who may come only if the weather is nice of if other plans do not interfere in the meantime. Participation in the catered meal is completely optional as was agreed upon at the outset.

Do not feel that you cannot come to the rally or join in the meal time if you havn't sent money in for the catered meal. There may be several who will bring something back from one of several restaurants or perhaps the latecomeres and uncommitteds will order Pizza together or simply skip the evening meal.


Just a reminder... :)

MikeinPittsburg, How are you?

Holly,

Although it's real iffy, put me down for dinner just in case & I'll send the $15. Is there a problem with personal checks? I see people are using money orders, but I have not seen an explanation for why.

Tony, are you suggesting there is a pizza place that would deliver that far?

It's called "Tonys Pizza delivery service". Didn't you see the luggage rack on the back of the "E"?

I think there is a Pizza place near the hospital or Walmart and several in Milton I'm sure.

Hi Holly - I'm the fellow who called you the other night - will be sending the money order along with a note out to you today. 


Guys - won't be on the Turbo this year as its down for the stator replacement.  I have the engine out and that's as far I have gotten so far due to time constraints  Jokingly I told someone that I should bring it with me for a tech session in the basement....
