Frank, he does just fine and will hold his own, with a good old "7 and 7"....


Yeah, yeah, but does he drink and gamble? He's just another engineer wearing boots and drinking Shirley Temples.

I think engineers have aberrant Golgi bodies, especially in their Purkinje cells.

Wow, is a flatlander from IL calling out somebody from Wisconsin on the topic of drinking?! Hahahaha Must be trolling for bar buddies at the Rally! Suppose next we'll hear about bears vs packers or a minature Ditka driving the team bus at the Indy500 and winning! Sorry the biology or something terms are lost on me.

No worries Scott. That just Dr. Frank trying to set you up -

e.g. get you to pay his bar tab...:biggrin

Sure, how many Shirley Temples engineers can drink. I'll bring (or buy some boots) so the engineers don't feel out of place (i.e. IndyGT, Ralphie, MAD in NC, etc).

Ah, Shirley, sounds like the JD and Seagrams will be rollin...and the boots will be needed because it appears the bull may get a bit deep. Glad we aren't doctors so we can't remotely calculate the damage to our livers! :biggrin

Dave-

Did I miss, or have you posted a rally agenda. The JoyRide agenda is still listed as "tentative" and as we are now 28 days out, any updates?

Might be good for people to start thinking about what, when and where.

Thanks!

I think the brand was Shell, but the highest they have is 110.

Mark, we will miss you.

Was looking forward to possibly seeing that new monster you have been working so hard to finish.

It is around a one mile walk (crawl?) from our hotel the Hyatt Regency to Jackson Square in the French Quarter. We are next to the Mercedes Benz Stadium.

I may drive to Mobile on Monday if anyone is around & wants to go also. It's a neat place. Heidi can try out the shops. 300 mile round trip. Tuesday I'm headed to North LA to visit kinfolk. Lots of chawin, whittlin & shootin goin up the there as always. Anyone ever shoot a squirrel from a movin GT before? I'll let you know how it goes.
