Fuddruckers sounds good..

Maybe instead of Stillwater. We could take a drive down to the Carver area. Haven't been there for years but I recall it being a nice drive.

Final MN RX-8 Drive Before Winter

Final MN RX-8 Drive Before Winter

Sorry for such short notice. Champa (Speedrx8er) is moving to Virginia and Joseph (Papajoey) is going to be in town from North Dakota, plus it may snow next week.

-The plan, meet at the Fuddruckers on Hwy 394 (Louisiana exit, located on South side of Hwy in St. Louis Park, directions below)
-THIS Saturday, November 12th at 1pm.
-We'll hang around and chat RX-8 stuff and if you want u can grab a drink or snack.
-At 2pm we'll take a drive.

The drive route is not fully determined yet but it will be 1 to 1.5 hours (you can leave midstream if you need to).
We have a few routes we are looking at, Lake Minnetonka area/Long Lake near Baker Park as well...any ideas would be greatly appreciated but nothing too elaborate

When the drive is complete we'll meet up again at a location that will be determined by the route but close to Hwy 394/494 area and schmooze some more.

As always bring a friend/significant other in the car if you want (or more .
I'll be bringing a camera and feel free to bring yours too, one day we'll have a website, I swear .

Address of Fuddruckers: 6445 Wayzata Blvd, St Louis Park, MN
Link to Google Maps: http://local.google.com/maps?q=fuddr...3Abasics&hl=en

If you have any questions feel free to email me or call me (also if you are running late the day of feel free to call my cell).

See you soon

-Jason

Wow, you guys are a busy bunch hehe

I can't make it this weekend, but if you guys need a hand getting a separate web site setup I might be able to do something.. it would be nice to have a whole forum to ourselves rather than just one thread with 60 pages of replies ;-)

I'd change that to say "Most RX8 guys on the forums are IT guys".

We could name it Gr8t IT Service.

The only trouble I see is in the winter time we might get prank calls to see if we will come out in a 3 feet of snow. Coarse then we can drive 88 Oldsmobile in the winter.

I've been thinking about building a server to host the forum but then figured I'll just use my wifes computer

Wonder if she would notice. When I password protect her from logging in and disabling the power button.

Pull over- no it's a Geek Squad sweater but thanks for noticing.

There is a guy at school that works for Best Buy in the Geek Squad, actually he is a "Special" Agent.

Poor guy thinks he knows everything. In fact I have a poem that was written for him and read in front of the class, enjoy.

"Whats His Nuts"

I am Mr. I Know Everything.
You can not tell me anything.
I have seen all that ever will be.
Close my eyes and still I see.
Don’t tell me how your day was,
Or show me what this does.
‘Cause I have already done it,
And I know what, what was.

Why do I waste my time with you?
It is like listening to a complete fool.
There is nothing you can ever say
That I wouldn’t know, in any way.
But still I come, I don’t know why.
I sit and watch as time flies by.
I am after all Mr. I Know Everything.
What, would I lie?

a poem by Whats his nuts

I can't seem to disconnect.

Actually I am purchasing belts for the underdrive pulley project.

Can't believe SR wants 79 + ship for the belts I just purchased them for 19.58.

You guys may not realize it but I merged my company this spring with the commercial spinoff of the Geek Squad, Techies Network Task Force. Robert Stevens, the guy who started the Geek Squad, is still a shareholder. Instead of Beatles, we have 9 Black Toyota Matrix's - woot... not. They suck.

Geek Squad sucks now - but the legacy guys that I merged with are pretty good. At board meeting I tease Robert about the Geek Squad sucking. He can't really complain though - Best Buy is treating him well!

Robert is actually a huge car fan. He liked my 8 but drives Audi's.
