Bringing this to the top with this years date. Gonna be out lookin' for stuff, probably going on Friday 'cuz I've got the day off and no life.
Anyone else? Mike? Kirk? Mike? Hammy? Adam? Neal? Bueller?

Time's gettin' short. Anyone thing there's a chance in hell we're gonna have weather other than "cold and raining" by next week Friday?

Yesterday the weekend forecast was high 60s. Today it is high 50s. Why bother? Computers, satellites...
What day? Friday?

I'm thinking Friday, yeah. Going to a show Friday evening which'll probably keep me from getting up early Saturday morning, have to work on Sunday...
Bob, what's your forecast for next weekend? The way things are these days you've got as much chance of being right as those fancy-pants meteorologist guys who interpret falling stars to predict the weather...

Sylvester, it's a giant general automotive swapmeet .. VW stuff turns up here & there but it's not specific to any one brand. Lots of Detroit hotrod stuff, antiques.
I tend to keep an eye out for oddball stuff. Saw a Ford Taunus Transit van one year, couple of Crosleys, a King Midget, a GAZ-21 Volga, a Goliath Express ...

So .. Friday. When are we meeting up? 8:30ish? Gates open at 7 but the vendors need time to roll out of bed too.
Apparently they're selling discounted tickets for the Expo Center meet at Baxter Auto Parts, so if anyone wants to save a few bucks check that out. Not sure I'll have time to do that before Friday...
