  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    Buick Mike,
    By all means stop by! If you are down there, and can make it, you are welcome!!! Ft. Lauderdale to West Palm Beach is a quick 30 minute drive. Come on by, for sure!!!

    Supposed to return from overseas on the 8th, so I gotta hope nothing is delayed...

    And no, I aint a chef -- I can operate a microwave and a quesadilla maker and that is about it. Naval architect -- always flitting about inspecting cruise ships for this, that, or the other.

    Good Morning All. I am just checking in to make sure everything is still a go for the 2nd Annual get Together? It appears from the extended forecast the weather will cooperate so let me know if anything has changed. If not we are looking forward to meeting some Buick people next weekend.

    I have made the old GSX into a fair weather only car. It is way to much work to clean them up or may be I am just getting lazy.

    Hopefully leave this ship in Hong Kong on the 7th and be home in time. Heck with the kids and the wife -- I've got cars to look at!:D

    But if weather in the next few ports does not cooperate, no dice.

    Good morning all! Sorry I didn't write very much last night. I was pooped from painting all day. Heck, I'm still pooped and now my crazy son is dragging me out the door to go boating. I need a new body!!! As I said last night, I can't wait!!! I guess we'll start a roll call to see how many are coming so I know how much food to get. Every thing else is ready. The long term forecast looks great so we'll just cross our fingers. I'll be back later tonight.....

    My Buick is a boat but really dont think she will float or jump very far. Sounds like fun though

    Steve, (Briz), I'm talking to you, not Steve in Ft. Lauderdale. Fred came over this afternoon. He didn't say, "No, I won't go canal hopping." I told him we go slow. :)>
