Yes it was a logistical nightmare that I will take the blame for. Man what a day of flying. First off when I was going to come out Nort and I planned for me to be there Saturday so that I could get a complete day of work. Well then Nort rememberes that the Brunch run is Saturday and he is kind enough to invite me out for it, so I have to go a day earlier. Well he tells me how much Fridays flight is and I am floored. So I found a flight on Thursday for much less money. So I THOUGHT that he changed me to Thursday and I never really looked at my itinerary as I had trouble getting my email all week. SO I show up to the airport today an American Airlines (who we originally had said I would fly) and they have no record of me flying So I know from flying so often this trip that United also flies at the same time and actually closer to the times that Nort had said the flight was. SO I call Nort at about 6am his time and wake him up and he tells me united!!!!!! OH CRAP!!!!! I run to United and there I am as they tell me sorry you are not on this flight either!!!!! OH CRAP!!!!! So call back Nort and get the conformation numbers that I could not get as to my Email problem. Well they then inform me that my flight is tomarrow. Well I sweet talk the ladie and hand over my credit card and I got on the plane.... I thought. Well it does not stop there!!!!! FULL FLIGHT!!!! So sir can you please sit down over there.... Can you please get a cavity search by chris, ya that is right me and chris are on first name basis and I think dating after the cavity search I got!!!! Then I get on the plane and who is next to me but the BIGGEST GUY on the plane!!! HE DID NOT FIT BTWN THE ARMS!!!! SO now I an all cramped over to the side and figure oh well at leaste I have my head phones and tunes, but NO THEY DID NOT WORK IN MY ROW!!!! I got the flight attendent and made her fix it. DAMN IT JIM I AM A AUDIO GUY... MAKE IT SO!!! Well needless to say thank god the flight seemed to go by fast, probably due to the 26 hour drive that Biggus and I just did. I am in Town and ready for the run on Saturday. Tank if I finish up with Rick and Nort early then I would be happy to help ya out with your rig. Lets plan a get together for next thursday????? WE RIDE!!! Just another story to tell the grand kids.

Audio,
I'd love to get you up to Washington to look at my toons, but you'd probably rust. I do need to pick your brains a little about the system I want to put in the Cafe Racer. When are you getting back?
