^Pissa yeah.. be easier I'm set on gas so I'll just park somewhere upfront then we can double out back and take University Ave/Rt1 intersection to 95!
Gonna check the direction to find out how long it will take to get there (thinking no more than 30mins).

1 hour, 12 minutes. Giles has printed out the directions from Microsoft Streets & Trips. (One of the few pieces of Microsoft software worth purchasing!)

See you guys in the am!

Hey guys,


I no longer own an 8,but I do still own rotary power.Would it be ok if I brought my RX-7,and my 4 year old son? I tried to order tickets,but it seems they are sold out.I guess I should have found this post sooner.I could always just hang,and look at cars,and then head back home to the south shore to catch the movie.

Chris

It was nice seeing everyone! Sorry that I couldn't stick around for the movie.

We should have a couple of winter meets for those running the cars year round.

Hey Guys:

A thinks goes out to Michellle (Lil' Red Shinka) for putting this idea out there. Cool to meet all kinds of folks. Happy Feet was better than I thought. It acutally had some very funny parts, right Kev?

We'll have to have a "Mazda" meet sometime in the Spring. Now to think about what to bring.. my Miata or Speed3?

Hahaha... yeah I'm sorry the quick lil scene of the um penguins in the different sexual positions was hilarious.. the kiddies didnt realize it but um yeah us adults did lmfao!!! Robin Williams was classic as always if not for him I seriously would of passed on the movie (no offence michelle ) "come on ladies.. who wants to go first!". That and seeing it on that HUGE SCREEN was amazing, the detail that those animators did was outstanding.

Next time Oleg.It was nice to meet you guys as well.I sure miss my RX-8 a lot,but not enough yet to get into another payment.

I am sure you would be less than impressed with my cars performance,or lack there of.

It is probably the exact opposite of the RX-8.I mean the stereo is the most technological part of the car,and that doesn't even work right now.

What are you talking about...that sounds exactly like an 8...

Had a great time. I was very impressed with the imax (first time). Now going to the regular movies is going to be alot duller (if thats a word)...Happy feet was much better then I expected from it.

Kev, good luck on the MS3. Kev, good luck on the cat. Oleg, good luck on school (hope that works out for you). Lil red, this was a great idea.

It was nice seeing some familiar faces and nice to meet new ones (weatherman, sophmore, and noteboy). Good luck to all who will be driving thier 8's thru the winter.

We should all meet up sometime. NEPOC is for all Mazda folk, and since it looks like I'll be getting my 8 come March we should all meet next spring.

Pics from our meet. http://altspace.com/nepoc/index.html

Hey, had a great time, was great to see everyone there. Happy Feet was better then I had thought it would be. ^.^ We will have to do some more stuff this winter, like a skiing trip, I have a rack for my 8. Anyway here are the few pics I got before the camera's batteries died.

Glad everyone had a good time! Happy Feet was a lot of fun! And hey, I know it wasn't a Disney flick, but it was still refreshing to see a an animated film where the mother doesn't die! And how about those Spanish penguins???

It was good to meet up with all of you, too! Next time I'll do a better job of getting a headcount and reserve us a table at the restaurant! Definitely should do something during those winter months. We don't ski but we love tubing and hanging out in the lodge drinking hot chocolate!

And yeah, the "big screen" is really small after IMAX!!

Cool! Where's the movie?

BTW - thanks for letting me know about my lights. Funny thing - we had just passed someone going the other way on the highway without their lights on and I thought "Who's that idiot with no lights on?". Then I saw yours go off and on again and I thought "Hmmm, nice thought, but a little late. The guy's already gone by." Hehe, then I noticed my lights weren't on and I thought "Who's the idiot on THIS side of the highway with no lights!!!"

LOL ya, Eric was like "I wonder when she will turn on her lights?" so I started flashing mine. Ya I never realised how helpful that little "your lights are on" light can be on the dash.

No, you're not intruding at all. I don't know about anyone else, but I majorly destroyed my browser yesterday so I wasn't able to check out the website you posted. I'll check it out now.

Yup, I guess I answered the question "Where would we be without idiot lights?"
