The pool is plenty warm in Key West. Hell it has been over 80 for the past week. Of course tomorrow is supposed to be a high of 70 and thursday is a high of 66. Everyone is always welcome to La-La land. Better make it quick thou my last day on the island is June 16th and then Im headed to Grand Haven Michigan. Which then we'll have to alternate back to Wray's house. I have seen his pool and it is real sweet. Wray you still enjoying the Panama Jack. I will bring some with me. Scotty EM1
Scotty, I would be enjoying the Panama Jack if I could find it up here.. I guess I drank 'em dry.... So, I'm back on Captain Morgan. If you can find it in a 1.75 bottle down there let me know what it costs.. Maybe I'll see if you can fit a few cases in you cars when you head up this way.
I think you will enjoy Grand Haven. I have never been stationed there, but I have known many that have been. They had a great time. Hope to see you when you drive thru....
The numbers should reflect active members. Not those who drop a loaf and run. So, of the almost 50k, howmany are still here? I think Dick is pretty close. Maybe the number banned is pretty close to that too?
Careful guys, the last time I challenged the actual number of members I got a reprimand from Fred. He does not like it when you do that. I second the idea of a party at Wray's.
Hey Wray since My Aunt lives in Orsmond Beach maybe I can come over and drink your rum. then I can stop by to see her and she will think I am a wonderful nephew.
Pat, as the old saying goes.. the more the merrier... Come on over... Gary will be supplying the steaks, and I'll get the beer.. Should be one hell of a party...
Gary, I think if you give Omaha Steaks a call & tell them it is for a CG party they may cut you a deal... Maybe Dan Dunn has connections, he was there for a few tours...
Hell, I guess I'll turn up the pool heater TOMORROW!
Wray... PS Gary, give me a call tomorrow nite after 9... We'll make more party plans.
Ill bring the meat. Got a hog and a 1300lb black angus going to slaughter next week. Not sure how much meat that is, but it should be enough to feed the majority.
Offshore -- where are you in NY? I am in Sunny Daytona (actually Ormond) Beach...
Wray, I am on the sandbar west of Jones Beach and south of Long Island. Still trying to keep the old 2 cycle Detroit Diesels up here running.
Everyone from here lives down by you now. Must be getting crowded. The sky is gray here, temps in the 30's. No outdoor beer drinking. I need a vacation.
Got room for this new member, Wray?!!? I saw he joined last week, I'm sure most on here have heard of him(her)!!

When a party like this happens, it kind of reminds me of the old Hank Jr. song "All My Rowdy Friends are Comin' Over Tonight", when in fact my life now more resembles his "All My Rowdy Friends Have Settled Down."
And I really don't know why someone has to get so sensitive on the banned members comments...I certainly didn't see anything wrong with them...It's really no wonder why a lot of people no longer post too much here any longer...
Where does Wray live??
