You know I'll be there - and maybe even WITH the Buzz Bomb.  I just found out that the new engine has flat top pistons in it so I have a bit of measuring to do to assure that everything clears but I think it'll be OK.  Probably another 0.5 point of compression - this is a good and unexpected thing.  It'll eat a bit more time but I think I can still get 'er dun.

I think we're getting old.  "Hitting the Sauce" has taken on a different meaning.

John - I DO NOT qualify as "eye candy".  Deb, however, should fill in quite nicely!  Look forward to seeing all soonish.

I left the April meet in a state of frustration (after the unknown motor problem) and forgot to reserve my room for May,,, made calls all day and finally got a room at the Clinton Inn.. I sure hope it is better/cleaner than than Scotland Inn we ended up in last June ?

Anyone stayed at Clinton Inn recently ?

Thanks Robbie,,, as I said before.. In June 08 we stayed at the Scotland Inn and the only thing missing from our experiance was the Chalk out Line of the last dead body from the room,,, that place was NASTY !!!

Clean is all I expect,,, just need a nice place to sleep and  S.S.S !!!

Lou Blue is the manager at the Clinton & will probably help get anyone a room in the back building-- she decides if it will be open for us. I haven't seen the "professional" staff there that once frequented the Scotland.

Sorry you got stuck in the Scotland, Charles.  Nasty, indeed.  I should have known something was wrong when they were surprised that I wanted the room overnight and not just for an hour.  I try to warn folks away from that gem.

I've stayed at the Clinton a couple of times and my friend Kim stays there when she comes (usually October).  Seems to work out fine for her.

when i told her i dont know what your saying...

she said..."p_ssy, tits and armpits...can you help me please"....
in the sweetest 80 + yo voice ever.....

I said..you take care of the p and the t and ill help with the a.........

have known the old SSS term....but evidently did not know the female
version......

in her honor........ive made it my mission to ensure Judie is well taken
care of.......through proper pta....avoidance of..pms..and thereby prevention of..ptsd.........

speaking of aero devices and legal intakes........hope everyone at the
upcoming Maxton goes very fast........

Joe

d/t the site owners appreciation for appropriateness and reference material: i researched
the term for first time since being educated about it...and much to my relief its well
documented:

also...lest someone feels this discussion went off topic......i say Dan Stokes started it...
in reading his above post....i thought wow...
