Congratulations ! I've been a studious reader and always appreciate the time and dedication it took to write the book in the first place. Thanks for the memories!

Thought someone would read the side bar story in the newsletter and comment. It is my favorite story.

The biker story was hilarious Jim. I just have one question. Did your prom date still have all her teeth when she showed up with the Hells Angels at the pizza parlor :P ?

I learned a long time ago not to comment on another man's preference in females. Don't like being beaten up.

Talking about MFPs, especially the ones with rings in their things and lots of tattoos will eventually either lead to problems, or a good date. 50 - 50 chance. Where's your sporting blood, Doug?

Congratulations, Jim!

LOL'd at the Hells Angel story. I have a close friend through another Porsche group who has been a Hells Angel for 45+ years. Great guy, actually, and one of the most fascinating people I have ever met, and that's just the stories he's told me, undoubtedly there are many more he never will. Small world, his aunt's [big time Hollywood actress] sons were my best friends as a kid 60+ years ago. First Hells Angel to ever earn a PhD. High paid guy in the oil/shale industry. Still married to his same Mama 54 years later.
