Good morning, everybody -- I'm revvin up for FC -- just put my S in the shop getting new tires installed -- to TireRack again -- I think between the vette and the S car, we're keeping good ole Jim in business!!! The installer said he'd never seen anybody so excited about getting new tires. Duhhhh, obviously he doesn't drive an S, right????

ROBBIE!!!!! I'm looking forward to seeing you again, you dollbaby, you. Good to see you visiting over here at the Vintage hangout. You're welcome to sit at the little table with all our precious younguns who seem to enjoy hanging out with the slightly (and I do mean slightly) more mature folk.

Patty,

For a second I thought that you were referring to me? And was reminded of the lyric from "I get by with a little help from my friends" until I got to the out of the office all day comment. I was in the office ALL day today.

I am happy to see that you are demonstrating that you have class by going with a Suzuka

Okay, lads 'n lassies -- I'm ready for FC -- my S is sporting new tires and a new wheel alignment, so I'm roadready. Who's ready for Fall Colors? Maybe we should crank it up a notch and head up there this weekend, right?

Woohooo!!! I'm ready to go now!!! Cannot wait...

"Gotta go, gotta go, gotta go, gotta go, gotta go, gotta go right now!!"

The S has new rear tires as of the end of August, so they're properly worn in now. Fluids are good to go, just might need to change the oil filter the weekend before depending on what the mileage is.

Luggage (what there is of it) is ready to be packed, cameras are ready with charged batteries, laptops are up to date with the latest patches and virus files (I noticed the hotel has broadband in the rooms). Hilly is getting things ready at school for her substitute, we both have the time blocked off. Methinks we're ready to go.

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeee...
