*Waves*
Just passing through and thought I'd wave at everyone.
I've moved on from SAAB (not exactly a bright future there - ha!) and now maintain ambulances and fire trucks for the metro (all front line/mission critical equipment.) Good bucks, great benefits and get to do a lot of cool stuff, like driving anitque trucks in parades, playing with the big trucks at the airport, fireboats, etc. With the new partnership, I wonder how long it will take Chrysler to build their version of the Fiat 128/Yugo CV? They were almost there with the Neon. Who knows what they could have achieved with a few more years development time... (Can anyone say 'baiting'? Sure you can, I knew you could!) Y'all take care, Beav

Re: *Waves*
Yep...next weekend is the Somer Nite's Cruise Car show (4th Sat of each month) but the Dragon Meet is also next weekend, so I'll be in NC....but I usually put my SVX in the show, so just let me know if you are going to be down for one of them....

Re: *Waves*
Kia ora Beav,
Really nice to see you posting and hope it is not a one off. Your input is surely missed. Great that you are enjoying life. I am sure all those essential machines are in good hands. Nga mihi nui, Trevor.

HiYa Beav, how's it going dude? Squeeze DuJour eh? I see you are still talking technical. Randy is out in business on his own now, so he's a busy boy. Nobody has heard from him since Reading. Take care of yourself, and drop by more often. Joe

Beav!
So glad to see you around! I just bought a Saab, so I'll be sure to keep your PM button close at hand. Mike

Re: *Waves*
Huck - We'll have to see how the heat continues and if we can 'raise the dead' in O-boro. Have fun in N.C., say Hey! to Matt & Co. if you see them.
Trevor - I'm certain those are kind words in your neck of the woods - Thanks! Although, I must admit, I'm now a bit concerned for those that want to dance to 'YMCA' down there... Joe - I dropped a couple bottles of Kentucky's finest brown liquids in my end of the big pond, have you received them yet? (and, believe it or not, they weren't empty!) Ron - Did you drop the glass or the box to in order to wave? Mike - So, you bought a Saab? Hang on a sec, I'll hand you a towel. Dang, I wish you told me sooner, I just cleaned out my garage and pitched three turbos and a bunch-o-junk... However, I kept one turbo for my riding mower. (Just make sure you never have less than two programmed keys or ~$2000) Hmm.... I just had an idea... How cool would it be for us, each, to spend something around $20 USD, and buy something indicative of our locality to send to someone in another part of the world? Discuss...

Plus, I see great merit in your suggestion. A small difficulty might arise re sending liquids via air mail. Not that liquids are necessarily indicative in Ireland. It's just that where I live horses haven't dropped to twenty dollars. Yet.
