"If you apex lasts four hours or longer, consult your mechanic."

Premature Apex is a common condition amount men. I'd recommend one track session a month. Maybe NASA Ho will help out.

Brain damage is easliy visable. Probaly as a result of repeated microtrauma associated with high G movements. What do you think Dr House?
Dr House- They own RX 8's dont they. D/c them and let them drive you idiots!

Alright guys, I don't know if it is possible, but since we had such a good time with the camper, would anyone be interesed in renting a camper and pulling a car and splitting the cost of the camper? I can check into how much it will cost, but it may be the same price or lower than 5-7 people getting hotels. I don't know how much renting a camper and car carrier will be, but it shouldn't be a whole lot.

Check out prices for a camper. I'm game. But you know a hotel room shower may be the deciding factor for me.
