You guys have broken WA??

What have y'all done to WA? 60 degrees for HIGH TEMPS the third week of JUNE?

HOLY COW people...stop w/ all the 'green' stuff and start forcin' a little global warming, eh? I'm going to have to deal with temps that are about THIRTY DEGREES cooler than here in Enterprise, AL.

I'll land at SEATAC 21 June, about 7:30pm. I'm flying out again with my daughter and one of our cats early morning 1 July..with Mary and our son, and two cats, on 2 July.

I hope to meet up with as many of you as I can, one last time (for awhile anyway), while there. Anyone have any free time?

:D

I'll be swamped with moving the house and shipping the Subaru during the week, but could sneak away for a lunch, or dinner, etc. REALLY want to do string of pearls, but just not something I can invest in money (gas) or time wise.

we're trying to convince all the folks from warmer climes to go home, then we'll reset the thermostat.

^ Well, it must be working... King county was just recently added to the list of declining markets. Must mean all the Californians are finally going home, and even better, no longer coming up.

Sure we couldn't persuade you to ride shotgun with someone on the 29th - pick up and drop off at your door

So if that doesn't work... how about dinner on the 27th or lunch on the 28th? Maybe meet in Auburn or somethin'... like we did with Brettus?

Everyone????

Thanks Linda! I get horribly car-sick as a passenger

A dinner or lunch would be fantastic though!

I'm confused... When will you be out of town? And are your folks going to be there that weekend? What about Friday?

So far, Kris and I can do dinner on the 27th, which is Friday... Any one else????

I can't do this weekend at all (21st/22nd). And Darin is leaving on the 1st...

Honestly I'm pretty certain it;s my fault... A few weeks ago I washed my car and bought a new motorcycle within just a day of each other. I think this caused some sorta of Causal over load and we got stuck in a reactionary rain loop...

Basically, we've only had about 3 days of sun since I got the new bike... THough of course it's getting better today..

Sorry bout that.

I made the mistake of parking outside instead of in the garage today and left my 8 car with leather seats in the sun all day. Needless to say I won't be making that mistake again

I have leather seats and my 8 is outside all the time, and has been since I got it over 2 years ago. I put leather conditioner on them once in a while and they seem to be doing fine.

Sheesh, Keith! It was YOU!!

No actually, it was me! I took the sun with me to Copenhagen - everyone there was amazed at how sunny and hot it was that week. The day I left, the clouds and rain rolled back in.

I HATE the green-underline In-text ads that populate posts on key words.

The issue was more they were ridiculously hot. The top of the steering wheel was hot enough I couldn't hold it

Right. after I post, I check the reply in Internet Explorer. When I see the Advertisements appear in my post, I go back and add bold/italics, etc code randomly. See the Ad Robots here on this forum find key words and turn them into Ads. I don't like it. When they read the words they don't see Subaru as subaru, but as [b]sub[ /b]ru....

Make sense?
