Oh, that better not be true. If it rains after all this woderful weather we've been having i'm going to be vey pissed. Although i'll still be doing it.

As far as this Sunday goes. I too am not a football fan. And Chritina and i normally go to the movie theaters because of the same reason. "No one is there". Since i just ran it a week ago i dought if i'll be going this week end. But hell you never know. I'll call you saturday evening Jeremy to let ya know yes or no.

do0Ds...
nothing to worry about, part of what meteorologists do in their major is smoke lots of crack.
If anything, we might get a couple drops of rain like 3-4 days before.

But, in case I am the one that has smoked too much crack, do we still drive it in the rain?

I agree, anyone who makes plans based on 10 day forcasts might as well call miss cleo.


and I am not afraid of a little rain

even quite a lot of rain

Ya, i've driven most of this route before in a downpour. It just means more open roads for us

well I know a couple of you guys wouldnt mind(maybe even prefer!) driving in the rain, but for a group this big it'd be alot more safe and just more fun to head out on a day when the suns out and the roads are dry. Not trying to be the buzzkill here(I dont control the weather!...yet.) Just looking out so we have as much time as possible to make a decision about wether or not to move it out a week if its going to be too wet next Sunday, I'm still hoping for dry roads but its not like it would be a huge heartbreak if we just moved it off a week if it meant having another nice weekend like today, just MHO

I'll be off on another driving adventure the week after, (see photos)- March - lets see, WRC mexico, I'll be down there that weekend, and probably up in Montana a couple weeks later, in April we've got Rally to the Rallycross, and I'll have to get Rim Of the World measured up for running in May-

So I think for me, its the 13th or else sometime in late May or June.....

Hey Krinkov...

LIC can help you fix your windshield wipers. That's what they're there for, in case you wind up driving in the rain. I thought that's when Subaru shines the most??

What's football?

I remember a few years back that CHP listed Super Bowl Sunday as the safest day of the year to drive. PM sent.

I am sooo thrilled that we have so many people that don't care for football.
I am home!

If I have as much pain on the 13th as I had today I will not be able to safely drive, heavy medication and fast driving just don’t mix. But I’ll think positive and assume that I will make it.

The weather report has now changed to partly cloudy on the 13th (at least in the river area); hopefully it will stay that way.

If you want to know.

Well it started with what I did for a living, from 1995-2003 nothing but hard labor. Digging, splitting firewood, furniture moving: pianos, appliances. I don’t look like it now but at one time I was a very strong man.

This kind of work was slowly killing me, but the straw that broke my back was in 2003, getting side-swiped by an SUV as I was waiting at a stop sign. The impact spun my WRX around doing $11,000+ in damage. Their SUV ended up worse, after hitting me she lost control rolling the SUV at least 3 times (she was ok).

A week later the nerve pain really got bad in my back, legs and head. MRI showed damage to my discs, pressing constantly on the nerves. From then on I have been slowly getting worse, and now I can’t even work. I am now just waiting for another MRI so I can have surgery.

Thank you for asking, sorry if that was too much info.
