Nationals
To Kyle Bahl etc...I wil not be getting a PT Cruiser for nationals next year...the thought of spending 3 hours on the side of the freeway with a blown up transmission with you guys again is just to much for me to take. Dave

Fond memories of Whitney Point
Ahh yes...I sure do have fond memories of that place....from my rental car blowing up on the way down to Pocono to watch a Nascar race....with Ric Hannon, myself, Kyle Bahl and Kyle Hannon...stuck on the side of the road for at least 3 hours...watching the beer supply dwindle down from 2 cases a a stack of empties...(they made a little camp in the bushes by the side of the freeway) to finally getting a rental car delivered on the back of a flatbed trailer. And the rental car agent calling me saying there will be an upgrade fee on the new car. (I am not joking) Running fairly well first D stock elim, only to blow the bottom out of boat second elim...and having half the beach help me (actually jw) fix the thing, and people telling me to stay the hell away and go get everybody beer..which I did. 1st heat of finals I get cut off so bad that it blew windshield complety off of boat and killed motor....and I was thrown out for the heat....cause I was the stoppage of heat. Lemme tell ya....never mind. Make it to the Binghampton airport sunday,thunderstorms all over the place....first flight is delayed, load us onto a second flight, pull back from gate a few feet...only to move back to gate and were told to get the hell off the plane...it was needed at another airport..sorry. finally make it onto original flight....around 9 pm I think....hustle out onto runway....and then turn back around and head back to gate again. The crew had timed out and could not fly anymore. There were 6 of us, including a racer that had a giant 1st place trophy that he had a death grip on...a monk, a girl covered with tattoos...and the wife of a navy admiral, and myself. The Airline guy said sorry...the next available flight out was not till the following Thursday....and by the way, you need to get the hell out of the terminal...it closes at 10 pm....mind you, there is no cab service to airport, and this thing was at least 10 miles out of town....not a pretty sight. The Admiral's wife grabbed a rental car lady that by chance was bringing in a car...and forcibly made her rent it to us...Don't wanna repeat what she said..but we got the car...A small Hundai or something like that...which 6 of us squeezed into along with luggage. The monk drove...and keep looking for someplace to buy beer....but they do not sell beer in Pensylvainia on Sundays.....made it to Philadelphia sometime early Monday morning....got home Monday afternoon. dunno if the monk ever found beer or not.
