That looks like fun!

It's a holiday weekend here in the US so the weekend starts today for us.

Sue and I will be celebrating 5 years of marriage tomorrow.

We're going to 3 Baseball games this weekend... Sue is actually a bigger fan than I. Tonight there's fireworks for the Holiday. and tomorrow I got us tickets for what's called The Diamond Club... Best seats and food in the ballpark.We've never done it before as it's pretty expensive.

Then there's the Tour to watch as well.

I also asked Sue to give me a list of 3 or 4 things that she wanted me to do around the house this weekend... part of her anniversary gift. The list is 26 items long  :o :o

What happened to 3 or 4??  ??? ???

Drink Jack Daniels and listen to Bruce Springsteen :D

Yeh, just hope the weather is not too bad
 :-\

Congratulations for tomorrow  :)

Hey don't insult Jack like that!!!   >:( ;)

I just got out from under my Jetta...old engine out in 2 hrs., swap parts over to new motor, sitting in engine bay 4 hrs. later.

 I (and 22 fellow students) had a hitch-hiking contest this weekend from Utrecht to Leipzig (+- 630 km). At first I found it pretty #$%^ that I couldn't go to EBI 2, but I had a GREAT weekend there in the sunny East-Germany.  8)
 
 I took part in the organization of this years contest (so I went with our own car.. ;D), but next year I'm going to take part in the contest and hitch-hike myself...  8)
 (so I might be missing EBI 3 next year too...  :-X)

jordy .
maybe you could hitch-hike to bug in ??

raced my "other" car and got into the low 11s... on the 1/8 mile ;D

The orange thing looks like it wants to eat your country! It's probably pissed at all those dumb Swiss laws...

Is that racing at Gardermoen?

@ Mat: what laws?  ;)

@ Prowagen: no, St. Stephan military airbase, in the middle of Switzerland

WOW beautiful setting, is this a yearly meet would love to attend one day!

yes it's a yearly meet, called the hangar rockin' http://www.crazyeventik.ch/festival/hangar_rockin08.htm (http://www.crazyeventik.ch/festival/hangar_rockin08.htm) the race is pre-60 only, the meeting is pre-68  while pre-60 cars get free entrance. it's well worth the long trip as some friends of mine came down all the way from Hamburg, Germany which is more than 1000 kilometres away (one way!).
