You're not alone in that I'm always careful with door shutting too. When I get home from a drive and put the top up, I often have to open and shut the door a 2nd time because my first gentle push did not do the job like it does with top down

Totally cool, tell him you have friends who would rather pay him to use his floor for sleeping than to pay a hotel, and your friends bring beer

Busy day. Nearly done getting the house "in proper order" and actually did several hours of work today. More of the same tomorrow.

My next "big purchase" is going to be a hose caddy to keep my 50 footer organized in between car washes

I've been offline for a while, but I'm very happy to hear your Son is safe.
HE'S ALIVE!!!
Dude, you have been missed
Next month the D&D is in Geneva, is that close to you?
I've been mulling it over. Two weeks before we went on that uber-vacation, we got hit with a bibical hail storm which took out our roof and beat up three of our cars, That's been the focus of our spare time.

I did see the D&D in Geneva and it's a pretty long drive, but I haven't done a single drive with anybody else this season. We haven't even gone up to Ithaca more than once or twice, so I'm considering making the long drive just socialize with other S people.

Is there a projected Date for the next Geneva D&D, I wouldn't mind leaving work early for this, even if drove the Si?

Just this week I finally caught up with Carol and settled with her on the Stone Bridge t-shirts I ordered. They are great by the way. Thanks for making the shirts happen.

Or just bolt a spare wheel to the wall and wrap the hose around that
Years ago we had board meetings at a house that had a huge Porsche rear wheel bolted to the house, and the garden hose was wrapped around, I always loved it

That really is a good idea that shows how much of a car person you really are. My wheel would of course have to be a Honda/Acura OEM wheel.

That is a great idea! I've been looking for a nice, neat way to coil up my two garden hoses.

It was awesome, it spoke, no pun intended car very clearly, worked perfect, looked totally cool, and was funny as hell
Do you know how many exotic cars are crashed and there is like one perfect wheel left over...

AND FOR THE RECORD

I have this to say to those who have teased me as the old dog who cannot learn new tricks

If it were not for Droid and Garmin we would have been screwed last night
Droid maps located me and told me what bars were close
I noticed O'Leary's my 1st choice, and called them based upon the Droid link
As I was on the phone with them I was able to enter the address into Garmin
As soon as Marc showed up we were out of there, Alex's ain't ever getting me to try them again, too small of a place that fills up too quickly
I navigated us all right over to O'leary's, found great parking, and it all worked out, no fuss, no muss, no drama

So there

Old dogs do learn new tricks
