Thursday, 1-17-03, 5:30 or 6pm, Arturo's Restaraunt, Q Street between 8th and 9th, in the Haymarket.

All BMW (and other) Enthusiasts welcome. We need at least 5 or 6 RSVPs or we'll postpone the event.

Sheridan
Jeff
Armen
Justin
Indi.....

who is in????

Let me check with my wife and I will get back with you. I don't get off till 6 though so it will probably be a little more like 6:30 if I can make it.

D'oh... Thursday nights are booked up for me... sorry. I'm not sure 'enthusiast' works for me anyway... more like 'hyper-obsessive wacko' :D

eh... maybe friday then?

Friday is a possibility for me. Again I will check with my wife to make sure that is fine with her.

Hello guys!

Jer, yes Friday would work better for me too. I have volleyball game every Thursday night this winter. ;)

Oh what happened with that plan on meeting at Hooters Omaha? :D

Regards,
Indi

Possible for me too... I will also have to check with the wife.

Omaha is your deal Indi.... and I don't know any of the omaha members except you and sheridan!

looks like friday at Arturo's it is. Indi, if you get a chance to post this to the Yahoo group, that would be great, I'm blocked by the firewall.

Kurt H. is from Omaha, if I remember correctly. Hmm.. who else???

tons of people... just no one i know

so it looks like:

me, indi= yes

Armen, Justin=maybe

sheridan?

not posts on e-group yet either.

I believe he is out of town for business.

You can expect me to be there. Are you bringing the wife Jeremy?

Can anyone tell me what the plans are?? I'm not going to go if all we are going to do is stare at each other. :-) Also what kind of restaurant is Auturo's? Is this a fancy "sit-down" place or a bar and grill with maybe pool tables? Inquiring minds want to know.

Ha ha how are the lash scars? (From the whippings:devillook )

Well, healing quite nicely, actually. :D

I just have an absolutely horrible memory, so I thought I better check to make sure we didn't make any prior arrangements and I just forgot as I do so many times.

sheridan..... mexican food, no pool tables, we're just going to hang out and maybe head to somewhere that DOES have pool tables afterward, kind of call it as it happens. its a social gathering, not a business meeting. we'll probably just eat and BS for a while and tell old war stories.

If we want to plan something else we can.....

Looks like were coming. Bringing the Audi though....

S

I should be able to be there. I have the same question as Justin, though... is this a guys night, or a bring-the-wife night?

Karyn will be there, she's a car chick. Karyn has done a couple of DE's and used to sell cars, Nissan and Volvo's.

S

I may not be able to come. I'm battling flu now, had to skip work today. I'll try to come if I feel better in the next day or two.

So is it 6:00 at Arturo's then? That is what I gathered, and planning on unless told otherwise. Will look forward to seeing you all there.

wives welcome!!!!!

and friday, not thursday.

I need an estimated head-count by friday noon...

looks like:
indi
jeff/kathy
sheridan/karyn
armen/tracy?
justin/wife?
das/Bren

tom and vonnie????

that looks like 9-11, so I will try to get a big-ole table for 12-ish. I will call down and let them know we are coming.

Justin and I will be there, our wives opted out. :)

On a different note, I love how my little car keeps up with 4X4 trucks in the snow. Go RWD!!! Yeah! :D

Armen you are so right!! Those snow tires rule :clap: I can seriously out accelerate most cars on the road. Plus Amanda and I rented a movie last night so I drove to Blockbuster and when we left the parking lot was empty. You can guess what happend next. :devillook

HAHA!!!! you must have better tires than me then armen.... .I was ALL OVER the road this AM.....

justin...... remind me to call you if i get stuck....

Whenever you need one. These tires are awesome. I get around better in this car than I did in my old Honda. Of course the FWD burnouts probably had something to do with that.

Yeah, we'll send the "2-Door Sporty RWD Cars With Firestone Snow Tires Towing Co." out to pick you up, Jer. :)

The best part is if someone is following you a little close, just nail it and go fishtailing all over the lane at 7000 RPM. Heh, they back off quite a bit after that. :) The snow makes me miss the Corvairs, though... even with crappy tires, those are UNSTOPPABLE. :D

yeah, those things are great....

Now you've done it Jeremy. You have encouraged Armen's Corvair obsession!!

just doing my civic duty.... :D:D:D (ah, feels good to be back at home with a full keyboard.... I can use SMILIES again!!!!!)

What was that about a Civic??? Blech. :)

Sigh... on Tuesday night, Tracy accidentally referred to the Corvairs as a FORD product. I actually stopped breathing for a minute, but luckily Justin was there to console me. :)

[\Thread Highjack]

See you all tonight! :D

Hey Jeremy, just in case you didn't get my email. I believe Tracy and Amanda are now coming tonight. Just to let you know. Sorry about the late notice!!

Ford?????? that is BAD...... its like calling an avanti a real studabaker....... or something like that.

no, i take that back... its more like referring to the General Lee as an AMC Gremlin.

He almost cried!! I felt really bad for him. I did my best to console him but I still think he is hurt.

come on Armen... sack up!!!! :D:D:D
