Ok lets this thread back on track. Turbos is still a good subj though.

Yesterday
Spootted A BB Merging onto I-10 and 7th Ave Right in front of me. I noticed it was someone that I had spoken to at a jewlery store a month ago. honked, waved........ looks over. Huh ? you waving at me ? Can't you see I'm on a cell call here!
Looked like he just got off shift. Phx PD patch on his shoulder.
Still oblivious.

Oh well.

This morning Spotted a VR in the drivethrough line of Jack-in-the-Crack on Central.
Paying for breakfast i guess.

BB, no appearance package, getting gas at the Chevron on Chandler near Desert Foothills Parkway.
I smiled, but she was on the phone while she was pumping gas.
I thought they say you shouldn't do that?

I be at the Collier Center/Bank of America building on Washington and 3rd street... I have seen a grey rx8 in the area. I waived once, but they did not wave back.. I rarely venture into northern downtown because of the nasty construction...

VR southbound on 48th between Elliot and Warner followed by another VR southbound on 48th at Baseline followed by a GG southbound on 48th in front of Diablo Stadium (still had his paper tag) followed by -- the same GG southbound on 48th about 15 minutes later in the exact same place! (I was coming out of Industrial Metal.) All of these were between 4:15 and 4:45 pm.
Then, another VR southbound (?) in the parking lot at Arroyo Business Park on Washington in Tempe.
Then, 45 minutes later, a TiT southbound on Priest near Southern.
Saw another GG in my neighborhood around 6:30.

No kidding. That's one reason why we moved the offices North of Camelback! We try not to deal with it day after day.

Getting to 4th Ave and Washington, the US Courthouse (need to be there 2/26/2007 for a pretrail conference) is a pain in the neck, now. If they put in the medical "square" north of that, it'll only get worse.

Meanwhile, back to the thread, I saw a SS on Hayden last night... I was going left on FLW, it was heading right, and we waived at each other. I did not recognize the driver.
