[Shotimes] Room and Board At convention

[Bruce Malachuk]

Hmm I guess I have to get under my car and wax the struts and oil pan too. I
would have never thought of that, it's bad enough I wax the door jambs.

Every reason you listed on there is a pretty good reason to go. But the
biggest one that I think you missed is that "You'll be surrounded by ppl
that UNDERSTAND why you drive and love your SHO. And also why it's not JUST
a Taurus.

Still PPL that I meet and ask me why I work on my car so much and all that
say, why bother it's a Taurus. Then I open the hood, or take them for a ride
:-)

I personally want o put faces with all the names of the ppl that have helped
me out, or that I have read the insane posts to the shoforum, here on the
shotimes list, and the techsho and delphi things as well.
