When I was in Flint several years ago everyone clapped and cheered for me when I was intoduced... my Public awaited me and I was caught off gard. I didn't know everyone thought I was so cool on line either. Next time I make it to the National, I'll be ready. .... Dandy Dave! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buick5563 Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 Not much stealing this morning, Mark. I got a really cool Landau T-shirt and 1954 motorama coin. You lucked out. No dog sweater this year. I'll mail it to ya when I get back home. Sorry, I don't have any pix, but there were around 30 (?) forum folks and more than a few cameras were present.

Guest 40 Buick 51c Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 Had a great time at the breakfast this morning, great bunch and I must really be a dork cuz I didn't see anyone being a dork. Did find that I can get the forum on my IPhone while I was waiting for the breakfast to start. Cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buick5563 Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 We're all cooler, thinner, younger on the interwebz Paul.Darryll, I live on the forum through my iPhone. All of my posts in the last four days were made from it... Proof of above (dork) statement! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old-tank Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 dork, dweeb, geek, nerd Try to find your place in life. I got to sit next to Bob Coker (Progoofoff) who is not to be lumped above...his description is a little more 'earthly', especially of those who chose not to attend. Great bunch---just wish we could get together more often.Willie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thriller Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 So, Mike is the one who ultimately stole my shirt...along with a few others, I left early to attend a volunteers meeting for the open car show, but had some technical difficulties getting to it on time anyway...I should have stayed there to ensure that I got something I may have wanted.Brian DePoulli acted as a proxy for me after my name was drawn first and I picked the MrEarl shirt / CD...I wound up with the book of automotive postcards...I've glanced at it, but not had a chance to look at it in detail.I want to know who would up with the wallet and whether they looked in it....

Guest wildcat62 Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 I wish I could have stayed for the exchange as well. That is always a good time. Of course, I heard it went much quieter than normal. Probably cause that troublemaker Mark Shaw wasn't there....Of course, the best part really is getting to spend a little time together, meeting new people and finally have a face to put with the handle. These meets are always far too short to get to do everything you want and spend time with everyone.A fun time again, even if some of you may or may not be dorks.

Guest sintid58 Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 Here are a few pictures of the meeting, took with my phone so not great. Having trouble getting them to download so this is it for how. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
38Buick 80C Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 Rick Young and Bill Stoneberg were presented with Buickman awards by Mr. Earl. I snagged photos of Bill getting his awards someone took pictures of Rick getting his. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Shaw Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 Kris, I have family in Mass, so I'll be back to make trouble next year... although I will not be dragging a Buick across the country, I hope I can ride with somebody in the PWD AfterTour.By-the-way, going on the PWD AfterTour is a great way to spend more time with the Buick bunch..... Everybody is welcome, even if you don't have a prewar Buick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Bruce aka First Born Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 I will second that, Mike. A real cool guy. Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 40 Buick 51c Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 Yah, Mike stole your shirt, but I stole it from him. I don't think that anyone looked in the wallet while we were there. They also didn't look between the mechanic gloves, there were some magnetic chrome flames. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barney Eaton Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 Funny that Willie would say that about Bob Coker, in my mind they could be brothers.Layed back, quiet, knowledgeable, great guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

progoofoff Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 (edited) Here`s another photo of the breakfast.

I couldn`t have made it without him. Edited August 8, 2010 by progoofoff (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g-g-g0 Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 Oh yes I did look between the gloves! I just have not figured out the appropriate place for them! Also had you been setting next to me you would have seen how badly I needed the gloves. About a week prior to Ames I SMASHED the end of a finger while working on one of my projects. The gloves would have likely prevented some to the damage. I am looking forward to using them!The breakfast was a bit quieter this year but good to see familiar faces and put names with new ones!!Can't wait to hear what was in the wallet!

bhclark Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 I met a few great forum members away from the official breakfast.I must remember not to drink so much the night before so that I can get up early enough to attend next time!It also didn't help that my hotel was 2 exits away and I had the entire family to cart around!

Guest BJM Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Bob, Thank you. I was, however, well rewarded by my daughters ability to be in the Landau. As one who is chasing the 58 Wells Fargo show car I have one request. DON'T EVER SELL THE LANDAU AND LIVE FOREVER! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Stoneberg Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 I was disapointed not to be able to be at the forum breakfast for longer then I was.It was great meeting you or seeing you all again.Next year, I wont be nearly as busy.Thanks y'all for coming to our party.

Thriller Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Here's the "Reading of the Writ" for Rick's Buickman award.
