You're a funny guy .

Sounds exactly like the one down the street from me, except his is blue with no stickers.

That list code is cool. Is that on here or did you just happen to know it and put it in?

Any reason you picked the Ru Sans edit of the attendee list, or was it purely coincidence?

Speaking of which, I had to pass on Ru Sans for lunch yesterday because I'm so damn busy ...not cool.

Eric,

who will be setting the time for the event? The meet is on the first sat of the month and i remember correctly that is also when cars and coffee is...(can someone say pre meet?). The main reason I am wondering is the 7th is also the same day as the Billy Joel, Elton John concert that I have tickets for. If the meet were to be in the early afternoon say 12 -1-2pm I would deff. be there. Late afternoon might be a different story, however I would love to be there. I also realize that everyone else has shit to do that is just as important, so lets set a time that works for the majority of the group.

It's the "Bullet list" icon in the advanced reply.

Just happened to be the most recent list - i.e. fewest pages back. I plan on Moe's in Jr Beans area.

I think the talk was around 5PM, but anytime works for me. Mid-afternoon would be good - time to get the car rinsed off and cleaned up in the morning.

Besides chilly can't get out of bed before noon.

I think they are the same as I've got: Nokya Arctic White 7000K bulbs. Type is H8. If not those, something very similar.

The current style is 55W draw. The old style (pre-2009) was 35W draw/55W output - I have no idea how that works. Stock is 35W.

I have no idea whether the new bulb (55W draw) is OK for our car or not. However, there are other 35W H8 bright/cool white bulbs out there - PIAA, Hoen, Lumenics, etc.

Cool.

Makes sense. Sushi = , though. I think you're just confused.

Around 5:00? How did this go from a lunch/afternoon thing to around 5:00? What is everyone's obsession with having meets in the dark? I'm down for mid-afternoon...hell, Jesse's 12:00, 1:00, or 2:00 is doable (and more in line with what I was thinking originally).

No; Matt's a tool, I've met him. He nickle and dimes you, only pricks do that. He may act "cool", but only because he wants your Cust. Pay monies and a good survey. He was Ross's advisor, I didn't know whats who Eric was going to or I woulda told him to find another one...

Hey all. Just posted a topic in Ramblings... but just figured I'd let you know that we closed the stores this past week. If you still want to meet at Waxhaw I can hook it up at Moe's... so let me know.
