Strange ain't the word.
Him doesn't like he, and me don't like I.

I wouldn't want to take any of your supply away from you.

See you there.

I had a great time meeting Ben, Karl and Dan (again) last night.

Thanks again!

Bruce, I am staying in Reno tonight - I won't have access to internet however.
I am hoping to meet up with Tim (oldfordstone) on the morning of the 3rd, somewhere around Tahoe, if you are able to contact him, and arrange details - we should be able to catch up!

That's what I get for inaccessibility to the internet for a few days. I just got home and found that I had a phone message from both Fred (BigF350) and Bruce (Bdox).

Hey Fred, Bruce and I would like to meet up with you today, if possible. So close, yet so far, arrrg... I wish I had a way to contact you. I am going to call Bruce and leave him my cell phone number so he can contact me if anything comes up here on the boards, and I will check my home phone messages periodically to see if you called me back. Then (if you somehow find a way to access the forum boards to get this message) I can call Bruce and scedule something, hopefully.

I know that it sounds like my dog ate my homework, and my alarm clock didn't go off this morning, but I do have an excuse for my not being contactable. I just got off shift this morning and went straight to Carson City to get an oil change in my F350. I just got home about 20 minutes ago. At work, the last couple of days, I was not able to access the internet as my access card locked up last week.
Hopefully Fred will somehow get this message, or will call my home back so we can make contact.

Now, I'd better get off line, as I am on dial up with only one phone line.

Yea, I missed Fred also. I was going to ask him to sell me one of his 55 Utes. From what I hear, everybody down under has two or three. Oh well, I hope he takes lot of pictures to share. Jag

Well either he got lucky and shacked up in some hotel-casino somewhere, or hit the road.

It's two thirty now, I have talked to Tim a couple of times but no way to contact Big.

I'm afraid we missed him Bruce. Haven't heard back as of yet. He did leave a message on my cell phone, I think this morning, but the phone wasn't with me. By the time I got that message it was later in the day and probably way too late.

Yeah - I am real sorry guys, I had to make it down to Vegas.

I hope to be back in the area within a year, hopefully I can coordinate something better then.

Again, I feel really bad, would have loved to have caught up with all of you.

OK Big, will look forward to seeing you next time. Just be sure to bring us a video of Austrailian water swirling down the drain, OK?

PS, don't take too much money with you to the casinos!!

Vegas???!!! Yikes, it's sure to be a hot one down there. Suppose to be 105 in Reno tomorrow. I'll bet Vegas will be pushing a bit higher than that.

Fred, make sure you get a hotel with real good air conditioning.
And watch those free drinks. The more you indulge, the more cash you find misteriously missing the next morning.
Got your PM. Hopefully see ya early next year. Maybe even a little snow, if early enough. Gotta love them Eastern Sierras. 4 seasons.
Take care, and travel safe, Tim
