It would take a EF4 or more tornado to move this Don. No worries there.
WHAT MADE YOU HAPPY or SMILE TODAY? - the sequel thread
- Thread starter YFCvii
- Start date
At the grocery store today and getting my supplies for my 10 day escape to the lake house. Looking forward to my first extended stay there with the Corvette (as the truck is normally there for if needing fix-up building supplies). So found a few of these strange things to add to my corvette c-gen handout selection for the little tykes who come up to check out the Corvette. It might feel like a “do you want a coke or pepsi” thing perhaps … we will see 
Toy Car hand-out is something I really enjoy doing - thanks to Jeffy for the inspiration

All good as I am (we are) looking for the right ZR1 for D instead ... all depending on if/when
he is able to setup and enjoy this part of the world again.

Sunday #2 in a row with my good friend. Completed the 25k 5yr complete maintenance. Today was the A8 with service with the “red cherry” Mobil 1 - nice smooth and silent A8 shifting now - 
Although I was not experiencing the C7-A8 transmission shudder, the high-end more costly change was done along with a new gasket and trans filter.

Went shopping for a seafood New Years Eve dinner for my wife. Lobster, scallops and filet minion. Just the two of us and the only problem is not being able to enjoy the company of our friends.
Good for you. I too use to donate religiously; but, can't now as I am a Ca survivor. I have a rare blood type as well; so, feel bad that I can't donate anymore.
Congratulations Don. Sigh..., I spent way too much time in the UK during their Mad Cow disease scare years ago and I have been turned down twice because of it.
Hmmmmm.... I'm thinking the prices for lobster, scallops and fillet minion for your friends may have scaled that Maxus down to a new slingshot Murray....
Why no company?? Medium rare for me please. Caesar salad to start - I make the best and a good bottle of red - The Prisoner would be nice - LOL.
Yes, he had a blast for sure. He is a great guy and the only person I've let drive my new C8. It was a nice day. The only issue was, the car was not, and is not, broken in yet. I hope you had a great Christmas? Happy New Year.@JCWP, James, you would be welcome anytime. Talked to my pal Graham on Christmas Eve day, he is still on a high from the opportunity to spend some time in your new C8. Very cool.Happy New Year.
It is a bit out in left field for trying. But a WhatsApp Dinner worked out OK for our family on Xmas Day (3 hrs apart) from just outside Fredericton to Calgary. Our first with an emptied nest.
It’s a bit different but you can only really judge it by giving it a try with friends.
Warning: perhaps not as easy for doing breakfast in Thailand with Dinner from the night before in Canada (14 hrs apart) but I am game for it eventually

You'll soon be able to get your own BOBBLE HEAD
Maybe they'll come out with a few of his costumes as well.
Might be a collectors item!
