oh bummer, sorry to hear that, I got pics of the Circuit City one too and then today I was going to get Jenkins and I left my camera at home (arrrrrgh). oh well, glad you liked the trunk as we tried to do something a little different (and a lot more subtle than everything around us) and hope you get to feeling better

I am feeling better. I think it was a combo from drinking friday, not enough water saturday, then chowing down on a hard rock burger that did me in. My stomach was messed up where i could not go out last night. That really was a bummer everyone had a great time last night.

Spotted a TG today while driving Lime Creek -- waved and owner waved back :D
Spotted a V/R on FM 2222 heading east -- tried to wave but lady didn't seem too friendly
Spotted a TG on 35N on the way home -- tried to wave again, but lady didn't seem too friendly

yeah on the way down to austin i was following the vr on the way down, and as soon as i would get close her and her friend would take off, and leave me in the dust. It was harsh.

Maybe it wasn't the V/R leaving you in the dust... maybe you couldn't keep up? :D

of course right as I say that....

Yellow 8 parked at Jason's Deli off Bay Area Blvd, 2 cars down from mine
Red 8 parked near a China Wok off FM 518 - custom plates...though I forget what they said (was an initial then last name I'm guessing)
Black 8 at a stop light heading south on Hwy 3 between Medical Center and Nasa Rd 1

3 cheers for Clear Lake area 8's
:D

Wow, I wish I'd drove the 8 today.

First I saw a blue 8 waiting to cross Custer on Plano Parkway as I turned onto Plano Parkway.

Then, still on Plano Parkway I passed the same silver 8 that I see every morning parked way out in the back of a lot at a dentists office.

And then, while waiting at the light at Plano and Ohio, a VR 8 crossed in front of me!

And of course, the VR 8 that works in the same biulding as me is there today again, so that makes four 8s in one morning drive to work :D

Wait, five! I almost forgot about the TI Grey 8 that was heading east on Plano.

Man, there was so many I almost forgot one!

One of the first two if not both are probably me the 3rd one might be me as well depending on what day it was on . I live near 635/Macarthur, Work on Addison Circle and was in plano the other day for the Dyno Day (183hp stock)

Not it this time...Mazda in Denton has my car because the tranny is f'ed . It has been acting up since I bought it about a month ago, looked up carfax and the previous owner had it repoed so he prolly railed on it before it was taken. I saw a girl in a Ti on the Tollway this morning

I would have chased after them, but I would have lost them by the time I got back to my car.
