Can we go over this whole dead car thing again...? I'm still confused... [smilie=graytard.gif]
just cause I miscounted a car... :roll:
it all worked out.. almost! so all you have to do is remember to do what I tell ya, ok? hehehe...

what was the total car line up? I had 22 but think I heard more than that!
it had to be more then 22.....all i know is me and Matt did our job,,sorta.....until some GW employee screwed things up......but in the end it all worked out.
HAHA...it is amazing how your excellent driving and being in the front row, makes life a lot easier!

This board has always 'allowed' threads in the 'Who's Going To" forum for show dates that have been announced.

MOTM is announced EVERY year so far, without waiting for Jimmy's tour dates to be announced.

You didn't HAVE to run to FB, there's always the Social area here. That would have worked just fine. :)


Have at it.
Hello Penny, this is Mike.
I'm the guy who startet the FB group. There was no intention to drag people away from BN, really!
I actually startet the group for the bunch of us who are planning on going to Cape Cod after the GW show. It just ran a bit out of hand with people inviting their friends and stuff...
So my sincere apologies if you thought I'd want to drag people away from this fantastic Board!

And a BIG Thank You for keeping BuffetNews.com up and alive! It changed my life, since without it I'd never have met all my new friends!

Kind Regards, Mike Schmid

Jimmy in Key West, MOTM 2011. Unforgettable! And let's not talk about MOTM 2015 :wink:

Well, if you'd gone right home but NOOOO you had to go to Pittsburgh!! :D
Thats why you need to stay for at least one or two recovery days at the beach. And I KNOW you don't swim but no one swam anyway. Well, Lesley and Mike had the guts to go IN the water but not for long!

Larry, you have to come next year! The best picture I've found of me from the entire trip was with you. If you don't come I'll wear a bag over my head the whole time.

I did go right home. I was home before 3:00 Sunday afternoon and I didn't leave again until 9:30 Monday morning when I went to the train station on my way to the airport.

Stop, I'll blush. I'm a very quiet, shy, reserved old guy. I should learn to come out of my shell.

I went in the water, but then the water tried to take me. I wish you had been in my head as I was trying to wipe my eyes and cough the water in my lungs when I realized Dave was yelling and warning me there was another one coming. Next year, I'm taking floaties or hiring our bartender from the Comber to be my lifeguard.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Pinot Noir in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO HOO"

mm darling, I would have jumped in immediately if I'd saw you being in serious trouble! But I didn't realize you were, so sorry for that!
I worked as a pool attendant at our local public pool a summer long, and even though I have no life guard certificate I was taught how to save someone out of the water.

In the spirit of utilizing this thread to plan ahead for next year I suggest we call ahead to make sure he is working that evening.
