That's right! I have that pic, 2!
It's when I met you and Tigger met Scoopie, I still have a picture of the 4 of us because Scoopie and Tigger were parked next to each other. -
Kewl! I just emailed them about paint/bra/detailing. They have a shop in Herndon, which would be gr8 if I could just drop Scoopie off one morning & pick her up after work! :top:
Max got his clear bra today and looks great. We found a guy in Fairfax that did it quickly and used Invisalign. He also installs 3M but said there have been issues in the past with it going yellow on silver and white cars.He charged him $550 and it has a full warranty. Plus, he was just a really nice guy and easy to work with. We'd recommend him.

MTTB was my very 1st run, 2. Really bummed I missed it this year.
I know how you feel, it was supposed to be my first run and leading it too! -
Then I noticed how magical they are, they slow down when I stop and they go faster when I go faster. What a great idea
Scoopie does that; Tigger should do it, 2. Whenever my wipers are going and I stop for a light/traffic, they slow down. Same occurs when in intermittent mode; even the rear wiper slows down in intermittent mode! Can't believe u hadn't noticed that on Tigger! Unless, there's a difference between the hardtop & cabrio ... ?

H8 that I missed it this year! :thumbsdown: Nice that 64 MINIs made it, tho ... next year!

Got a nice wave yesterday by a white Countryman that advertized the owner's yoga business.
-
Well, geez. I've heard that they do work from folks who have them. Oh, well. So much 4 my tip o' the day ...

I highly recommend getting deer whistles for just this very thing. Heard about them a coupla yrs ago, but haven't bought yet, but I sure will order them now! U can get them here or pretty much anywhere: http://www.amazon.com/Custom-Accessories-17380-Alert-Whistles/dp/B000BOALF4/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1350905557&sr=8-4&keywords=deer+whistles.
Hope all turns out OK w/your MINI, and soon! :top:

Dayum.

Almost twins! Very cool! :top:

U just may have somethin' there, Craig ... it could be the chrome! Woo-hoo!
It's the chrome. Saw a Harley guy yesterday, his Tshirt had "It's all about the chrome" on the back. Hard to read at first, his pony tail was flopping all over and blocking the view...I'm gonna be the first blacked out Harley owner I guess.
-
LOL! Thanks, Sherm. :embarassed:
I'm sure Scoopie had something to do with it....BUT sounds like the driver gets credit, too! -
I dunno what the deal is lately, but while I was tooling around yesterday, I passed a NC Motorcycle club that had stopped 2 rest at a gas station. 1 of the guys looked up, saw me & Scoopie, & yelled out a hearty 'Heyyy, Baby!' along w/a big wave & smile, & the rest of the gang followed suit! Scoopie's been gettin' lots of love from the biker community, that's 4 sure!
-
Very, very nice! :top:
-
Got 2 thumbs up from a coupla motorcyclists on my way in 2 work this am! Scoopie is feeling really speshul w/the latest kudos from her non-MINI admirers! :embarassed:
-
Looks really good! :top: Where'd u have it done?
-
1 can only hope ...
That is cool, maybe now he'll buy a MINI :top: -
Not entirely MINI-rel8ed, but got a nod from a purple Harley w/orange flames this am! I guess he appreci8ed Scoopie's color, 2. :top:
-
Thanks, Ali ... I couldn't imagine her any other way, either. She spoke 2 me when I spotted her on the lot and it's been a grand collabor8ion ever since!
I can't picture Scoopy any other way, her chrome suits her perfectly -
Thank u, Craig, 4 stickin' up 4 us chrome lovers. Granted, an ENTIRE chrome MINI is waaaayyy past my limit, but little touches here & there is just right in my book. :top:
Coming from me, this will shock everyone by why all the hate at chrome? It's got it's place in the world! You'll notice I've never used the term "murdered out" and that kind of thing, I just choose to remove the chrom from my car but I can, and do appreciate and recognize the fact that done in moderation, chrome can work. I loved it when I opened the hood on my 72 Chevy Nova, 72 GMC Pick up, 63 Chevy Pick up and yes, even my 77 CJ-7 with their chrome valve covers, polished aluminum intakes and all kinds of "bling" under the hood.So be nice to the folks who like their chrome and let's just respect our differences. Besides, if everyone got rid of their chrome, we'd all look the same and then it would be "MEification" instead of "YOUification"...

LOL ... well, whenever I'm scheduled to work late, I'll be on the lookout 4 him. :top:

Tell Mark 2 honk next time! That's what I do ... ... here's a bel8ed wave from me & Scoopie: :wavey:
Mark saw Audrey and Scoopie on the beltway this morning. He caught up and tried to wave, but Audrey was intent on being a safe driver and didn't see him. He didn't honk and wave wildly. So here's the wave from Max to Scoopie :itsme: -
Thx, Laura ... I KNEW it was some1 I'd seen b4!
HW MINI is Chris - he's a member. His MINI's name is Howie. -
Had a 1derful commute in this am! 1st, I was spotted by a BRG R53 w/the tag HW MINI (could've sworn I've seen him b4!), and we smiled/waved and danced on 2 the Dulles toll road. Once there, we got behind a BRG Justa w/regular VA tags and danced w/her 4 awhile. We were a mini-MINI caravan 4 a little while, which was really cute! Eventually, HW MINI got off the highway, so it was me & the Justa left. Since HW & I had been rolling along at the high 60s/low 70s, Justa was a bit slow, so I passed her, honked & :wavey:. Needless 2 say, it was a gr8 start 4 Pre-Friday!
