Ahh... the joy of raising girls- I feel your pain, man!

 

BWAHAHAHAHA! girls pwn their daddies early on! sowwy guys ... we also admire you greatly (we just wait 20 yrs or so to show it)

 

Supposedly I'm getting the car back late tomorrow...good thing I had them right down the exact mileage and have a copy of that...keeps away any "test drives."

 

^ s'ok the club already went out and beat on yer car at the last meet. um ....oops!! was i not supposed to tell?!?!????

 

Hope you get it back on time.

In addition to writing down my mileage before I drop it off, I also turn on the "bread crumb trail" option in my navigation system so I can watch where they took their "test drives". I likes to keep 'em honest

 

^ woah, i do not know about this option. where is said bread crumb option? i will sooooooooo do this next time im in fer service.

:scratches head and wonders how much other stuff she does not know:

 

Push the menu button, select "Setup Menu", then select "Map"... I think the option is called "trace mark". The neat part is the Navi is always on and tracking where you go, whether you have the screen up or not... so it's not like the mechanic knows he's being "watched". It's also handy when you drive in a new subdivision that's not on our old-*** map discs, and need to find your way back out. My kids call them easter eggs, as it looks like my car is "laying" blue eggs as I drive .

Warning though- could be used by one's significant other to challenge where you said went the night before

 

lol, thats why you dont buy cars with nav! cheaters nevar win!

 

I finally found a reason for wanting navigation. But I'd still rather have guages in that spot.

I saw my previous post, "right down" - I used to think I could spell and write , but apparently not.

 

thats alright, at least your post doesnt mention VTEC or naaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwwsssssssssss at all

 

lucky for you, i dint even notice it .... but now that you mention it ........

 

teehee ... the shedevil will poop blue eggs, noice!

meh, dont worry me none! i dont do bad things

 

w00t w00t w00t

Fridays meet has been set ... 8pm at the Brat Stop. Check first post for map and stuff. Anyone wanna caravan up there? I'd take 88 east to 294 north and can stop in Oakbrook area or OHare oasis or LF oasis to gather peeps

 

How long is the drive and are we stayin a night? I wanna come but I would probably caravan.

 

i dont think i can stay ... dog sitting issues. i was just plannin on hangin for the night. youd have to mapquest to find out how far it is for you, adam ....... and YES you should come!!!

 

Crap, I wanted to go to that place too.

 

yea, i think you were the one who originally suggested it!!!

 

Is the Brat Stop some famous/popular place to go to in Wisconsin? I want to go to one of those German beer halls, is that what this place is?

 

lol, i dont know of any german bier halls in wisconsin.

 

i have no idea what the brat stop is (cept a friends band has played there a few times). i tried searching to see if they had a website, but dint come up with anything.

mebbe they have cheese? WI is known for good cheese. think its the cows? i dunno....

 

OMG, i took a chance and just typed in bratstop.com and it worked.

Lo and behold ... this bar HAS A CHEESE MARKET!!!!!!!!

check it out brat stop website

 

The brat stop is a odd sort of place. It's a truck stop/cheese market/restaurant/bar type of place. But it has a HUGE parking lot, so that should be good.

 

sounds liek a stuckeys!! mebbe they have almond logs too or whatever that nasty stuff is that we all get while on roadtrips ...

 

I have to ask, I am looking to a friend who is offering us webspace on a very fast and well connected server for $5 a month.

The portal software is $150 for a purchased license, and then $30 maintenance / year (after the first year).

Would this be something we wish to do? By doing that, we can support more of a library function, have our own space to put up images etc..

We would then also have our own domain name..

2 sites that he already operates on the same hardware with the same portal software are.....

We discussed the idea of setting-up another site, but every one attending decided against it because of the monetary implication, and because it was too organized.

Personally, if people would pay dues to the Treasurer, ME, like they were supposed to then we could be doing this right now.


















(I'm joking, there are no dues, nor am I the Treasurer. I am currently trying to arrange to accept paypal, though!)
