At last, a voice of reason regarding the maintainance of proper hydration... :lol: :thumbsup:

Dave, unfortunately the "import" shirt bit the dust later that night...as my sub from Subway delivered a fatal "mustard shot"...all attempts to revive it with oxy-clean today have thus far proved futile... :leave: This episode also provided John with his "mustard toe" reference in the photo above. Seems that in my haste to address the issue with my shirt I failed to notice that I had also doused my middle toe (I was wearing flip-flops) with mustard, which dried, and I walked around with that mess for a good hour or so before noticing...worst looking case of toe jam you've ever seen... :lmao:

We were afraid Big might change the avatar title. Sorry Ray, I honestly didn't think he'd do it. :eek: If it is any consolation, I liked the old one better.

Hey Jerry - great to meet you in person as well. Andy & I had a blast! The only downside to the whole thing was we got caught in the rain on the way home. You gotta love those old two speed MoPar wipers with their pattented speeds: super-slo-mo and rigor mortis is setting in... :lol: I think it took me longer to clean the car up yesterday morning than it did to drive it over there... We'll get together again for sure - seriously thinking about making the trek back over to participate in your MoPar club meet in November...you'll have to drag the RR out...

If "Old Mustard Toe" is the worst thing I get called today then I'm having a great day! No worries. I've had "Cat Scratch Fever", "Mod Top Sheets", and now "O.M.T." As long as I don't get shown the door I'm good to go... :lol: :thumbsup:

Please reiterate to Treva (I'm guessing at the spelling - sorry if incorrect), Jim, and Don that it was a pleasure to meet them. I have those seat hinge covers for Don - call my cell today when you get a chance.

BTW - Andy was cracking up because he kept hearing your beep-beep horn behind us during the cruise - having never owned a RR he didn't realize how many people ask you to honk the horn for them! I must have high-fived a hundred little kids as we made our way through the streets of Old Town - we were so glad we stayed for the cruise - thanks again for the invite!

Ray, you are one of the few who have been able to spell my wife's name correctly after only hearing it - well done! She enjoyed meeting you and was happy to be there to see all of us nutcases have a good time. :jester:
I've been trying to get Jim to join up for awhile now and he has been meaning to do so. Jim, Jerry and I are all members of the Mighty Mopars of Orlando and have known each other for years. After meeting up with you and Andy Jim tells me "I'm gonna have to sign up for the forum" so I think it won't be long before he joins this fun-fest. He'll fit right in. I hope he gets that '70 RR that his buddy is offering him. We (me, Jim and Jerry) are going to take a road trip in the near future to go see it. It was originally a 383 4-speed car and has the Air Grabber hood, too. Sweet!
I'm sure glad you and Don stayed for the cruise. Its always a blast to see the reactions of people as you make your way through the crowds. Everyone wants to hear the horn. I always hear people saying "road runner - beep beep!" or "honk the horn!" or something like that. Usually I'm the only road runner in the whole place. I especially like it when the kids hear the horn. Its a lot of fun high fiving the kids as I pass by.
I'll be looking for you at the Garlits show. I can only make it on Sunday as I have a wedding to attend on Sat. Maybe we can convince Don to get his Dart finished off and be there as well. And if you can make it to Moparty on Sat. 11/14 that will be icing on the cake as well.
