hey bro, this dinner is the one where your talking about wearing like slacks and stuff right? lol i need to know so i can go buy some seeing as how i dont own any except my dress greens.

 

AV, why would you do that? Sucks man, I was hoping to have more RD's.

anyways, Alli, no, nothing fancy, most folks here would be too cheap to go to one of the nicer places I'd like to head to.

We'll go to the nearest Garduno's, same place we went for the spring 2004 one.

 

Alex, bring your car over here (Denver) this weekend and we can definitely get your brakes done. I have to replace my rears this weekend anyway. We could also do your struts if they are really bad. Way cheaper to do that stuff yourself, and I can help you with ALL of it!! If you are down, I'll check the local parts stores and see if anyone is runing any deals on struts. Last I heard, Monroes are buy 3 get 1 free. Your pads should be cheap as well, 50 bucks tops I would think for all 4.

 

*chuckles* this is --> offtopic.gif but i noticed this is like the only post dtn has not posted in.....food for thought...

 

What do you do on a chase crew? Just curious.

Personally, I like the idea of having the BBQ on Friday instead. I'm driving 12-13 hours straight in so I'll be out of it.

 

We run after the balloons in nothing but thongs and gloves waving frantically at the pilot. wink1.gif

I found this online which about sums it up.

"Under the direction of the hot air balloon pilot, volunteers help set up a hot air balloon early in the morning, ride in a chase vehicle to the balloon landing site and help pack it up. It is about a four hour commitment each day."

 

Java, you might be running in nothing but a thong and gloves but some of us of the opposite gender cant run like that cause certain things hurt if they bounce around a lot...id pay to see you run after a ballon in one though! lmao.gif haha.gif nana.gif

 

^^Now I know why Phorq sells tees and thongs. I wish I would have bought one now... Will victoria secret be ok?
lmao.gif


Sounds like fun to me.

That's pretty close, we also get rewarded for helping out. Free breakfast, usually get to fly sometime during the week, free entrance, free trip to the Zoo with a BBQ on Wednesday.

We also have a tailgating at the park after the chase every day, usually drunk by about 11 AM.

LOL
