  1. thanks craig, don't know how I have missed them up to this point.
  2. I took the VRE back to quantico from reagan, and found this nice JCW coupe in the parking lot. It has a DCMM sticker anyone know who the lucky owner it.
  3. Brandy would kill me if I brought another aquarium in the house. I will keep an ear out for anyone looking. Are the lights the standard 18" fluorescents or compact ( fixtures single or double tube). No stand correct?
  4. Watson is spoiled and rarely sees the rain. Nicer weather and I would have brought him out. Next year to put us over the top
  5. She has an evil streak like another redhead[emoji39]
  6. Thanks for letting them ride. You can pull a girl to your car on any run. You and Caylee ( the middle one) will hit it off. Make sure you keep up on your boy band knowledge, if they a cool today. They are likely gross tomorrow.
  7. Not in shape, but moving quickly creates body heat.:top:
  8. Thank you all for all your efforts in decorating your MINIs, and braving the impending weather. The rain held off just long enough, and it was overall a great success. Here is a link to a slideshow of all the photos: http://s1299.photobucket.com/user/buckshot2191/slideshow/manassas%20Xmas%20parade And here is a quick video:
  9. All, a quick reminded we will be moving from ptuning to the staging area at 0750. We must be in there no later than 0830. This is a hard time please be there prior to is pulling out. Thanks
  10. Very Cool, that looks like the diecast that ROSS to suposed to carry, but I haven't found it yet
  11. I fingers crossed
  12. He can always ride in the passangers seat and wave!! we will make sure you are on the rightside so it is on the side facing the crowd. blue painter tape works great with not leaving residue.
  13. hopefully the new sensor did not get kinked, it is just a copper wire in there and if it gets damaged it an cause the light to kick on. If you still have the old sensor cut the wire, strip and expose the two copper wires, then twist together. plug it back into the port and reset. it the light goes off the sensor is bad. I replaced brandy's and like a week later something on the road kicked up and broke it again. i cut it, twisted, and heat wrapped it. not dealing with it again.
  14. Thank you all for coming out. The always improving assembly line made short work of a hundred crackers. We look forward to seeing everyone bright and early Saturday with all your holiday cheer.
  15. No prob, just yell if you need help with anything
  16. For everyone when you get to the gate. For those that are fed employees just show your CAC. Everyone else just show your drivers license and give them my address. My cell is 910-650-9376 if you have any issues. Or you can reach brandy at 910-650-0138
  17. Sorry to hear
  18. You could navigate for Ali at the parade. Left to her own demises, all I see is the parade from Animal house.

  21. Hello all, We were able to solidify some of the planning for the parade at the board meeting last evening. One of our great vendors, PTuning, has been kind enough to allow us to meet and stage vehicles that are not in the parade in their parking lot. They will have coffee and cookies available at beginning at 0730. We will be moving to the staging area at 0750, it is less than 2 miles. We must be in the staging area NLT 0830. We are still looking for a few walkers if anyone is interested in handing out candy and crackers. Also there is still an available spot if someone would like to show off their MINI. Come enjoy the morning with us. The parade begins at 10:00 and we are 23rd group to roll out (first quarter) so we should be done before noon. The parade ends only ¾ of a mile from PTuning, we will pick up walkers and return to the PTuning parking lot to unload. I will be posting an event to help prepare car decorations and assembly crackers on 30 Nov, additional information will be in that thread. Please feel free to post any questions on this thread, or feel free to PM or email me directly. Finally I need to send a description of our theme “Cracking Good Time”, below is what I have put together. I am not an English major as those of you that have read my posts can attest. Please read it over and mock any errors or if you have any rewording please let me know. I plan to submit the final draft on Wednesday. “Much like the uniquely British MINI, the Christmas cracker has been a staple of the Christmas Holiday in Britain. Developed in the Victorian area by Tom Smith as a way to package his bon-bons, they have evolved to today’s version, which contain several key components represented by the MINIs before you.”
