    Decided not to come down after all . It would cost me at least $300 in gas, and $150 in lost wages. Plus four days of driving; all for 2-3 days of hanging out.

    Cost/benefit analysis sez don't do it. Plus we are a bit understaffed at work. They like me there, but esp. being a new guy I don't want to cause any heartburn. I'll save up my brownie points for OHstiva and Madness.

        ^ Yeah, hate to do it, but it's the realistic thing to do. I'm running premium gas too, due to the ignition advance*, and gas will just go up between now and March 17.

        * Tried retarding the ignition so I could go back to regular, to save money, but I couldn't stand it!

            If you can wait until Madness, I'll still bring that fridge I promised you for the rear garage.

                  I doubt he will be around. Unless he brings his van which it would cost him $60 to drive that across the state.

                      ^ you need to call your buddy Tom with 10 festivas in plant city. I think he wants to come to the meet. He left me a message this morning wondering if the meet was still happening today.
