Are the people at Temple going to be any nicer to us this year or at least get things running earlier? The day after St. Patricks Day, common, you're killin' me. :beer Shouldn't matter though. Don't need to get there any earlier than 3 or 4:00 right! Just kidding Phil. :laugh:
Thats it I have had enough of you! Jarrod is now assigned as: The Complaint Department Manager for the Brand X Bash. The job comes with no pay or benefits (Maybe BBQ but you have to Ask Frank Brooks nicely). All complaints should be remedied in a timely manner "immediately" In addition to your new responsibilities you are now given the additional title of: Track liaison to the track owner. It is your job weather you choose to accept it to immediately address all problems with her! Thanks for your help :eek2:
I wasn't going to say it, glad you did! :TU: Can anyone say LIGHTNING? :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
Not this Time. We are not even advertising that we are going to the track via the temple website, So we are going to have in a true sense a X Bash. the Track owner did appoligize about the lightning issue. :rant:
What!?! You're not Irish! You are Scottish, just like me! We don't need no stinkin' holiday to drink! It's on the calendar! Frank I AM THE COOK Brooks If it's not Scottish, it's crap!
Sounds like a fun time. I will make plans for this. My 72 is getting a reworked rear end with 3.42s and a posi. Will be a major improvement over the open 2.56. :3gears: Mark
Hear, Hear!!! I had to miss the Abilene Robert Burns dinner last night, and I'm still grumpy about it. The year just won't be complete without hearing "Ode to a Haggis"
Is it me, or is the action starting later and later each time? Not that I'm complaining at all - no sirree bob, I'll let Jarrod keep his new job...nope, not complaining at all...not me... :laugh:
Better watch that tone, that kinda sounded like complaining to me. Find your own job title for this X-Bash would ya'!!!! :laugh: :laugh:
If the fun isa startin' this early-- watch out for race day-- and night!!! :beer :bglasses: :TU: :3gears: :3gears: :3gears: :3gears: :3gears:
OK, I can handle that title...do I get to bring my sidearm, and can I shoot at anybody who doesn't bow down low enough when a Buick is doing a burnout??? :Brow: "You there! Behind the Dodge! That's not low enough - BamBamBamBamBam! :blast: "
:eek2: Ok, changed my mind..... James is no longer the body guard for Jarrod... Jarrod you are on your own Buddy.... However It is open season for lightnings I hear.... James Our unofficial "I am not involved by anymeans!" Lightning Hunter... As for the late race well sorry guys thats the best I can do. But at least we have a scheduele to go by this time.
OK, so I'll leave the .45 at home and bring an icechest full of water-balloons. (lightning...electricity...water...get it? I crack myself up!) Seriously, Phil - no worries about the time - I'd be happy just to hang out and smell the burning rubber! :TU:
