My road trip to Clearwater I made a wrong turn and ended up having to drive for 9 miles on a road with traffic lights on each corner. :roll: I couldn't get the gps to find another route. Took me forever to get there but it was a great show! After the show I was starving and wanted to get something to eat but just about everything is closed early on Monday nights in Clearwater and Tampa. I finally found a place that was open had some good food and a canned corona :roll: . I wasn't going to have it because I've had it in the past and it doesn't seem to taste the same. The bartender told me he bet people money that they couldn't tell the difference and had won money on it. Still didn't seem to taste the same. Guy comes over to talk to me and proceeds to tell me he's on his eight Yager drink. Not a shot this guy is having 8 yager as a drink He said he had control of it .Thanks bartender for keeping an eye on yager man.

I don't think you realize how bad my sense of direction is

I've actually heard that canned beer is better because it keeps the sunlight out, ergo better taste. But I'm with you, I still can't do it

I may or may not have witnessed the placement of the can.

looking at a road trip out to colorado this summer to get away from it all. about 1,100 miles each way.

need to teach the woman to drive a manual without smoking the clutch or stalling. guess truck and kw are out as co teachers. :P

Hey, we each only stalled once! Not bad for Truck considering he hadn't driven manual in years, and not bad for me considering there is a severe diference between our respective clutches!

But on to other matters -- are you getting tickets for the Mars show? Looking for a ride there. :shifty:

his shifting was aweful tho....every time he shifted, i could feel the clutch slip :fp: i think he also tried to take off in second. :fp: i know it works in some rides, but not in mine, and not with a ton of gear/people

mars....hmm depends on the lotto...i'll tell you this much....i'm not dirty franking to uranus. :P
