Met a fellow CRG-er today
« on: May 22, 2016, 04:59:55 AM »
Hey guys I wanted to post that I made a little road trip today and met up with Bentley.
Bentley lives out the middle of BFE (middle ohio) and he actually made time and drove over an hour maybe close to 2, and met up with me. We traded stories, and even though I am in the dog house with my wife for "wasting time" meeting up with a car guy. I felt it was worth the trip.

Thanks Bentley for making time to meet up.

Keep on keeping on, and lets get your car on a schedule buddy!

Yes, it was a glorious time. I mean, it's not every day that  you meet on the side of the road, at an intersection, in the middle of Nowhere, Indiana just to pay homage to a fellow CRGer! But I will say, it was all worth the 1 1/2 hour drive. Austin is blessed with a beautiful family and wife. I hope your wife was not too hard on you for our messing up the schedule somewhat and causing lateness to another obligation. Please pass along another apology on my behalf, Austin. Cars are great, relationships priceless!

 We should start a Faces of CRG thread. A mental picture is usually very different than what we really look like  :o

Well good or bad, you can't stop change.
Unless you believe the more things change the more they stay the same  ;)

Good idea.

OMG! The can of worms that would be opened!!  " Correct " shade of blue for your jeans. I like "survivor" clothes, but do sort of a "Day 2" thing with my hair and shave it. And facial hair??? " Period correct" or not ? What about the fold over guys?? Separate topic section?

Those who may color..." Just for Men" the best product out there?? 

Those that may try to hide the gray with the fore mentioned product, "Clones" ???

Next thing we're checking "numbers" on our birth certificates. 

Somebody will eventually bring up "performance enhancement".... different site, Team something or another is where they should post.

Bad idea Cook, hope you have a better day tomorrow.


No offence! Just having a little fun with this, lol.
Probably doing Blue Suede at Norwalk this year with the Anglia  if anyone's going. Z's getting shelved until Fall.
