Nice seeing everyone last night. Enjoyed meeting Dan and his wife.

Once again speedy's exceeded expectations with portion distribution. Tony had a weeks worth of potato salad on his plate. He gave it a fighting shot but ultimately came up short. Maybe next time. I had enough fries to build a scale model of London's big ben. Willie and I had a good ride up and back. I dropped him off in cary and made it home just after ten.

Glad Dan's wife showed up or we probably would have never heard half those stories she told on him.

It was cool to see the rigs parked together out back. Im surprised an exxon truck didn't pull over to see if we needed topping off.

Enjoyed it. Look forward to the next one.

Those portions were CRAZY! I felt sick all the way home. On the plus side the suspension in the F350 helps to pack everything down as you drive!!!! By the time I got home I was ready for some ice cream!

I'll do my best to make some more of the dinners but the next few months are crazy, so don't wait on me for a date - just pick it and I'll do my best.

Good to meet everyone.

Tony - you ought to come over to Riff Raff East in July - the diesels will be fun to watch. That truck of yours is beautiful.

I'll keep Riff Raff in mind. Headed out to Farmington Dragway tomorrow for the Outlaw Extreme Street 275/28X10.5..Hoping the weather holds and it's warm enough for the track to get some heat in it....Thanks for the comment on my truck. I really like your 350 CC also . Remember what I said about you going to 17's and selling your wheels to me....LOL

Being single and no kids I am ok with anytime so make it easy on yourselves. On a side note I was removing a part on a E-150 Front suspension and a 10lb. ballpeen hammer slipped when it hit the dirft but it was ok my left hand caught it, right beside the thumb between the forefinger. Lol. OUCH! Swollen and hurts like H*!! It's got a knot on it the size of a golf ball. Couldn't feel anything broken so I just kept moving on with the job. Got an icepack on it now. Only me.

Dang man. Good thing it was your left hand. Hope you heal up.

If no one makes a suggestion in the next few days I'll post something up. We'll try to get a dinner in before next Tuesday.
