My arm has officially been twisted. Looks like I'm being forced by fate to make it to the mile.....and the accompanying events, hopefully to include eating! Looks like I can make up for missing Glitchbadness. All I need is for everything to go right!  Working on my logistics. | ||

Yay Vern!!!! Who else is running north out of TN? Figured out my taxes... Figured out a high-$$$ teeth cleaning for one of my furbabies, scheduled for next week Still gotta figure out the BMW charging system failure, shouldn't be too hard Gotta order a new rear tire, keep trying to wear out the old one... Geez does time fly. Almost as quick as money. | ||

Still gotta figure out the BMW charging system failure, shouldn't be too hard Check the brushes. Airheads were known to have weak charging systems. The brushes are the weak link in the chain of weak parts. | ||

I’m at Circuit of the Americas in Austin TX this Weekend. Rented an RV and am enjoying the evening with a few good friends. | ||

Excellent news! This year my vaca is the Mile then HC then get home. Heading out I like I-70 to 36/24 turning into I-72 into Springfield. Almost no interstate, all 2-lane... gonna take at least 2 days. Can't wait to see everybody!! Z | ||
| Crusty |
ONE MONTH FROM TODAY!!!   It'll be here before you know it! Oh; am I ever ready! | ||
| Ourdee |
We're getting the band back together. | ||

It's 496 miles to Springfield, I've got a 3.3 gallon peanut tank and half a pack of 8 year old cigarettes. My seat hurts my a$$ after an hour, it's dark and my face shield is tinted. | ||
| Ourdee |
It's got a cop motor. | ||
| Crusty |
Just do it for the Penguin. | ||
| Pwnzor |
I'm going to put 550 miles on the Spyder tomorrow, shake out any bugs it might be waiting to surprise me with. | ||

 LIKE A CYCLONE....THE Race Weekend will be here before we know it. And the Ruffners are ready and excited to play hosts for the pre-race party. | ||
| 86129squids |
Got the pages open in the Haynes manual for the BMW, mechanic on standby for tire change. I said I "really" needed the Suches trip... then, dead Beemer, no BBQ, and a rescue operation with new brother Eric... Get ready, I'm coming. | ||
| Crusty |
What can we bring? | ||
| Zac4mac |
Whiskey | ||

I should have everything we will need. I do things the easy way. Anything I am planning to cook will be prepped ahead of time, so it will be easy to throw into the oven. I will have a couple of air mattresses, a spare queen size bed and a camper with a queen in it. People may have to fight who has to sleep on the couches or the floor!!! | ||
| 04buell |
And if you want whiskey, I say bring it! We don’t have any of that here.  | ||
| Ourdee |
I call dibs on an outlet for the CPAP.  | ||
| 86129squids |
I'll bring provisions, nomnoms, and whiskey, bourbon, heck, the market blurs those lines. Maybe some Japanese whiskey. Here ya go... saw him a couple of weeks ago. Looks like he has the harp player under contract until he dies... (one or the other). The harmonica is so simple, but so complex. | ||
| 86129squids |
To clarify my previous statement about the harmonica- I've heard SO many songs with it played THAT particular way, I'm guessing this guy is the most employed musician in Nashville. Even Chris Stapleton used him in sessions, among others. Just a guess. I know several great "harp" players, maybe I should try. Had asthma as a kid, but I have an ear. | ||
| Pwnzor |
Ummm... can Mrs Anthony and I have dibs on the camper bed? | ||
| 04buell |
Sure. Camper bed is yours Pnzor. We will have our tramper here With an air mattress bed in it as well. A twin bed in a spare bedroom (Ourdee May need this for his cpap) and another queen bed in another spare room. Then we have a nice new couch and a comfy recliner. And I may wrestle up another blow up for the floor. I think we can make everyone somewhat comfortable. We will make it all work! We can built a campground fire Friday evening in the fire pit for after we go eat and I am planning a great Saturday morning breakfast. Gonna have stuff for lunch Saturday (lasagna) too if people want to grab a bite before they head to Springfield. | ||
| 04buell |
Our house is not a big house, but it’s comfortable and I will make sure it’s halfway clean.  | ||
| Pwnzor |
Thanks Jerry, we are looking forward to meeting you! | ||
| Crusty |
I love sleeping in recliners. Can I call dibs on that? | ||
| Ourdee |
Saw that coming. | ||
| Ourdee |
A twin is way more than generous. If there are too many old folk, I can get by with a piece of carpet near an extension cord. Thank you. |
