Ah ha, that explains it! NOW, I get it. Infernal combustion, right? It was the tipping back of the radiator I missed.

Saw an orange with white stripes Camaro parked at Cafe Rio in Bountiful on saturday night... Prepared my Camaro5 card, and went over to drop it off, but found the driver, his friend, and their dates (I assume) getting into it. So I stopped and talked to him a little, but it seemed they were in a hurry, and his friends were laughing, so I probably looked like a huge nerd.
I just can't do it like you can, Jay...
I think I'm gonna hafta start wearing my Phantom of the Opera mask when I talk to these folks..... in plain view I just scare 'em off!

I'll do a FBOD run, but our cars aren't FBODS...will they mind?

Brain, not all Orange Camaro owners will be cool

I've tried to talk to other 5th GEN owners, most look at me like I'm crazy. Not everybody that bought these cars are as smitten as we are. Some of these people bought it because it's the hip thing right now. They're not really Camaro or Chevrolet fans. So don't get too discouraged when people act dumb. I can tell who's going to be worth talking too just by looking at their Camaro. If it's filthy dirty and parked right up front sandwiched between a 4Runner and a Dodge truck....they're probably not going to care about Camaro5.

Hey are you stalking me? How else would you know I am parked between a 4 runner and a Ram? Sometimes this place really is stalker.net. Just ask lightening...

As for me..I am just waiting to see Slick in daisy dukes. Mwa ha ha.

I can see it all now: Local attorney was denied application for judgeship when the following photo was revealed..... News at 10:00.

How many are we going to have for Wednesday? Remind me the time we are meeting at your office SSOOCHER Man.

FBods... Maybe they need an escort? (not THAT kind of escort)

You're always so witty, that's why I like you so much. Yes, I do play favorites and I don't play well with others nor do I share. I thought those principles expired after you turn 18. That's how it seems to have worked for those around me anyway...Plus, you have experience viewing the almighty Seether in concert.

Disturbed and Skindred put on a good show, but Metallica's was by far my favorite. How can you beat Master of Puppets live in concert? That's right, you can't beeotches. Represent.

I haven't wanted to look lol..
Weather dude says partly cloudy.

I can't come on Wednesday. But I'd like to try the Magna Arctic Circle on Thursday if anyone else can go. If no one else is planning to go on Thursday maybe I'll stay home.....

I'm still up in the air on Wednesday.

Thursday I could come, but I'd have to leave by 8 to get home and go to work....but I'd be game to go.

Having seen Metallica live 5 times now....yeah, they rule.

Saw Disturbed with Stone Temple Pilots and Godsmack about 10 years ago....that show rocked.

I'm down with Wednesday.... dont know that I'll be able to meet up at Sooch's work, depends on how busy my work is.
Thursday is stretching it for me, since I usually get off late.

I'm in for Wednesday. But I'm taking the day off to polish up my orange turd. Plus I don't need much of an excuse to take the day off. So let's just meet at Jordan Landing at 5:30 (so we can get a good spot)

Do you pretty much have to be there by 6 or it's no go?

You can show up at anytime. But in order to park together the earlier the better.
