Hey... it floats too. You can't do that with a 4wheeler.

Default I might make it

Thanks for leaving me off the list, Bob, even tho I been there 4 outta the last 5 years.

Well, Its possible I could make it there again. This time I might even drive all the way from OR. But then again, its possible not, also. You know me: I never tell people when I'm coming because it only gives the sumbitches more time to plot against me.

The trouble is that there's a Ranger reunion down in Ft Benning 2 weeks later that I was thinking about attending. This is in conjunction with the Best Ranger Contest which we'd get to witness as guests. They're going to let the old Rangers (self been grandfathered in) fire all the cool stuff also. Wow--how could I miss that?

trouble is that to make the last weekend in Apr, it would mean I'd have to stay in the South for two weeks or more, which is frankly beyond my limit. A week, yes, 10 days, possibly over the JazzFest, but weeks: no no but no. Not that I mind the dear old rebellious place but its gotten to be like everywhere else: malls and MDonalds, KFC and Target, Taco Bell and Costco. if I gotta do two+ weeks in Motel 6's its gotta be someplace REALLY cool.

Like Hawaii, which is Option C here. I skipped going to Hawaii last year and I miss the place. I wouldn't be staying in Motel 6 there either.

But hey, Sid, John and other usual suspects living around there--if I went to the Ranger thing, I couldd cruise on up to the Mountain and still see you guys anyway, but 2 weeks later. Would that be cool?

Stay good
James

So does shit when you've been getting the proper amount of fiber in your diet.

Default Tough decision James...

but, that Ranger Reunion sounds oh-so-cool. You know I'd miss your butt being there big time, but sure do understand the perdiciment. Actually...I think your right about Bob plotting something for you. Caveat LRRPtor.

Yo Pack:
Well, you know, if youre interested,I could see if I could get you in. The last lrrp/ranger reunion I tried to get you into didn't exactly work out in our favor so I feel like I owe you one. I'll ask, anyway. It could be possible we could get together for another round of golf somewhere, maybe somewhere midway but I wouldn't mind cruising up there and saying Hi to the gang at the mountain anyway.
I'm considering driving down from OR. I never have actually driven all the way across country, the furtherest being Oakland CA to N.O.LA. Don't know about this, with airline fares so low. I took the Greyhound this same distance once, it was a drag.
Stay good
james

Default James...

What a great invite...but you owe me nothing. I had a ball being a LRRP for a night trying to find the other LRRPS. I would feel real funny at the Ranger thing at Benning when people would ask, "what Ranger unit were you with?" And I'd have to say...I wasn't. Maybe that's weird but how I feel. It's for those of you that wore the patch. But...playing golf somewhere...NO PROBLEAMO. We will find a place. Maybe LT knows of something in the middle.

Since my Fiber habits have been brought up....I will lecture everyone on the mountain about the benifits of Metamucil. Pighumper is a convert. So, get ready for a "short" story of my life with Metamucil. I will do this individually so nobody misses it. You can thank Bob for this. (Social Workers, MD's, Psychologists, and Nurses can obtain 6 CME'S with completion of lecture)

Metamucil?

Believe I'd prefer a vodka enema.
