RE: If you're attending Carlisle.....check in
I gotta tell you a funny story. When I bought my last Mustang GT, the guy that lives, actually lived, across the street from us came over admiring it, and said "Man, how do get your wife to agree to let you buy all these cars?" I replied in rather saracastic tone that I didn't have to ask my wife. If wanted a new car I just went out and got, and if she didn't like it she could leave or get over it. }> He didn't wait a week before he brought home this really nice black Trans AM.
It was on Saturday, she had been home alone all day with their three kids, he came in about dark, went into his garage, brought out some lights, set them up so she could get a good look, then let her come out to see the surprise. You could hear her screaming down the street. I don't think that was the sole cause of the divorce, but it was sure the catalyst. He was sent packing the next day, and she still won't speak to me, that was in 93.
So while I may already know that I'm going to do something, I make real sure that I talk my way up to it.
That said, I'll be leaving tomorrow around noon. May go up thru KC and across or via Chicago, just depends on how the mood strikes me when I get to Dallas. See friends in New Providence, NJ over the long weekend, see my son in Bayside, NY, spend most of next week with my daughter since she's working swing shift and we can play during the day. Then cruise over to Carlisle on Thursday.
See ya later,
Lee
