Whoa , be careful blending those two concepts, the result can be very disturbing...

I think this is evidence of the malocchio being cast by Annette.

And that is why you are my protege. Excellent attention to detail! You have made me proud :o

Is that like 'there's always room for Jello'? And what temperature does Jello freeze at in 231 mph winds? :D

Its Jello? - That explains it - Always thought they were saying there was always room for J-Lo. And with that butt of hers....:aargh:

Is Dan coming? Last I spoke with him he wasn't sure. If so we can try to have him join our group driving out from Rochester.

No I don't think so.
Originally he said it wasn't worth coming if he couldn't drive to the top (hence the "always room for another" comment, which he made).

However when I had a cancellation and called him (twice, left a message AND spoke to him), he never got back to me so I guess he decided not to come anyway.

Thanks. He's not the best in returning messages.

When I spoke with him concerning their donations he mentioned he was going to bring them. I've offered to transport them but no word on that.

Grill Badges have arrived! This year's badge matches the cling colors of yellow/black. I also have a few in Red / Blue / Green for those who wish a prior year's colors (or to better match their MINI ;) )

They are $25 and will profit Rosie's Place (as well as enhancing your personal aura)

Dan has been a great guy to deal with over the years at Towne, and has been a big supporter of MOT through raffle donations. (I suspect he's responsible for the MOT cling I saw on the Towne MINI door when I was there last...) ;)

He survived a horrific motorcycle accident 2 years ago, and kudos to him for not letting that stop him coming back to Towne as the MINI GM.

Excellent! I won't wear my rubbers:eek:
I must admit I'm a tad excited about MOT this year. Really looking forward to it.
We're adding a couple of days and heading back over to Lincoln on Sun. and Mon.
Evan needs to see the Wolfman at Clark's Trading Post so we'll do that one afternoon and then do the scenic rail road ride too.

Nice key chain:)

I wonder if Mr. Wolf would be willing to trade cars for a day. I'd love to get behind the wheel of that thing he drives! It looks like a slammed Ford tractor to me... :)

Hannah and I decided to bow out of the ride to the top, having done it twice before, in favor of a newbie who might not have done it at all, Instead, we will take the cog railway up to the top the following day (Sun.), something I've never done and aways wanted to. If anyone else is interested let me know and I'll start a thread............maybe I will anyway:biggrin:

Hi all,

It looks like I'll be flying solo this year. Lynn has an important meeting to attend, so she sends her regrets. I may snag another passenger, and I may yet have an empty seat forthe ride up, if someone's interested...

Calling any MOT golfers...

LordoftheFlies and I have a tee time at the Androscoggin Valley CC (http://www.avccgolf.com/), the golf course across the street from the Town & Country Inn -- 3:30pm, Friday the 15th. We welcome any two others interested in a fun round to join us at our tee time. Just let me know. Otherwise, looking forward to seeing everyone afterwards at the 19th hole. ;)

Since we are talking about White Mountain fun let me remind everyone that Loon will be opening up their gondola skyride for the weekend:
Loon Mountain Gondola Skyrides and Summit Adventures (http://www.loonmtn.com/info/summer/gondola.asp)
And much to my surprise my wife,Pam, who does NOT like it when I have too much fun with Nigel in the corners LOVES this:
Attitash | Alpine Slide - The Best New Hampshire Skiing With NHs Most Powerful Snowmaking System (http://www.attitash.com/alpineslide.html)
Which will also be opening for the season just in time for us MOTers!

All this and MOT too? You betcha :)
