Please do.

There is one small initiation ceremony all new folks must go through. It's real simple. Involves a hammer, good running shoes and a credit card. It goes like this: Hit WP's gas tank with the hammer. If you can run fast enough to get away from WP then you get to pay for our dinner. If you can't get away well......we probably won't see you at any more dinners.








Kidding of course. Please join us for dinner anytime.

roger that. I plan to be done with work by 4 or so so being there by 6:30 should be doable.

How will I know where you guys will be sitting.. I have not been in this burger joint before..

I might ride the truck there.. "big red"



I have a bigger front spoiler now so it a bit different than regular.

see you all there..

carl

We're usually early and start babbling in the parking lot. So if you get there a little early, look for a group of people in the parking lot, telling lies and laughing. Most likely around a few Trucks. WP, the boy that owns the bike that you have to bash in the tank of will be there too hopefully.
Our dinner will begin with that show. If you get away, then we'll go inside and eat.
Bring plastic
I'll be wearing my FTE T-Shirt

Thank you James. I needed a good laugh like that. As far as I know I am gonna make it. As long as it isn't raining I should be on the bike. I hope to get to meet some of our new members.I hate I didn't make it last month but life gets in the way sometimes. I guess I have to wear my running shoes. Bob, same deal as last time, right before the initiation begins you dial 91 and hang on till I collapse before dialing the last 1. Ya'll making me out to be the bad guy here, I am just the comic relief.
