I might be able to do Saturday. I don't know if I want to socialize with a couple of the old group. I have no time in my life for mouthy BS. But I will consider the invite. I got tired of the fun being stolen when that crap started. I met the facilities guy at Garmin a couple of times who dealt with construction (through my ADT contacts) a couple years back... had a private tour of the place. He rides and was the one who picked up the BMWs from Engles for their R&D stuff. Don't think he was in the selection loop... but it was cool for my son and me to tour the place. He now has some Marshal stuff in his office I dropped on him. (I think his name is Michael DuPonte or his last name is close to that... I have his card someplace) (Message edited by dasbuell on September 29, 2005) |

Mike DuPonte retired several months ago. I think somebody told me he is on a large boat somewhere in FL. |

I plan on attending the Ralph Wayne's thing. I will likely be easy to spot for anyone that would like to hook up with a Garminian. I have an extrordinarily large head. Oh, and I ride a Uly. |

Dennis, I am a security manager here in KC I may be able to hook you up with a few contacts. Next we all get together I will try and meet you. I am the only not technically riding a Buell (see pic). But KCLW let me ride and act like I do. Hope to meet you sometime. |

Dennis Try calling Gemaco (not far from you) They manufacture casino playing cards. I've been in there a couple of times, pretty relaxed but security is impressive, not sure what they do about logistics???? just an idea Also I could tell you about how much the VA prescription Drug Distribution Center (leavenworth) could use some help with lockdown type issues... just an idea Have you thought about buying and ice cream truck come spring? |

Olinxb... I tend to have that effect... I am a regular Don Quixote. I take on lost causes... and battles that can't be won! This is nothing... want to see drama? Go to the KCmob thread and read the archives. That's drama!!! (Message edited by dasbuell on September 29, 2005) |

So Dennis what happened with going over to the big sandbox and flexing your brain muscles, teaching Iraqi locals to police themselves? Did your better half ever find a new j o b? Catch us up on all the specifics man! |

The contract was handed off from one company to another... my app was "misplaced". Pending job fishing results locally... if I don't locate worth while employment, I intend to reapply with the company which currently has the contract. Sharon found a job with a government contractor and works in the same courthouse I do... but I will be walking out of this dump soon... so she will be here and I won't! |

Sam has about one more hour to set a meeting place. Arrowhead sounds good. Big parking lot, Sam can't hit anybody there, could he? Dennis, pack the Radar gun! Watching this thread to see the meet place. Will be there with camera. And BEER. no wait. Ralph gives out FREE BEER. |

Is anyone riding tonight? Don't let the weak sauce take over! Das, I haven't spent much time over on the otherside, but I have been filled in on the drama. Pretty way to go about having a riding group if you ask me, but no one did. Personally I don't like Gail's HD, so anything associated with Gail's HD can suck a fat one. |

Hey no fair, DAS said NO QUESTIONS! Come on Dennis, we have not had a LOOOOOONG post on this thread yet, you have a chance to set history in its tracks. Oh yea, hows the Vodka?? |

Arrowhead??? The stadium on I-70????? Hey... that would be close to the casa de bankrupt... which I will now say has a flag pole in the front yard with a 3x5 foot Buell flag under a 3x5 U.S. flag. If I bring the radar gun... I need to drive or someone with a bagger to carry the battery and the gun... it won't fit on the XB in the tank bag!!! AND... the BMW has a leaky fork seal and is down for repair. I can do video though!!! For enough Vodka (which was great by the way!)... I will tell you who REALLY killed John F. Kennedy! I work for the federal government and I really know!!! Long post... I'd rather not have one or the other ruin the fun with their post crapping on my post. (I didn't really type this and click on the post button did I?) I really got tired of the party poopers there at the end of my attempt to have a real BRAG club! I tend to say things out loud and have to ask if I really did say that out loud! Enough negative!!! |

I took this pic of Pele's bike as I was primering it and thought of a movie quote. Let's see if anyone can get it before Larry. "It is a crisp September morning. You barrow $200 from me to purchase the car mainly because your girlfriend, Beth, said it was, and I believe the term was… tasty. Since then, that tasty car has slept in an auto cocoon on my front lawn!"

So, anybody gonna let the new guy in on the anti-Gail's sentiment I keep reading about? I bought my bike there and have been treated very well by everyone who works there so far. Am I in for an unpleasant surprise? |

Lee check your email. I chatted with Sam a few hours ago and he decided that the American Band Stand on Metcalf and I believe its just south of 435 on the east side of the road at 10:00a.m. Saturday morning will be a good meeting place for most everyone. Anyone riding Friday night I'm not sure yet like always....... (Message edited by hanses25 on September 29, 2005) |

I will try to meet you guys at American Bandstand Saturday morning so we can sound like WWII fighter plane squadron terrorizing Overland Park leaving AB to head to Ralphs, Dennis, good to hear from you. If you have any Marshall's memorbilia or swag you want to swap, my dad loves that stuff for his collection. |
