It looks like the time is rapidly escaping from us before the rally in Franklin, Texas at our little piece of heaven. March 30 for early arrivals March 31 for the official start. We'll go until April 4th or until everyone goes home. Nothing special is planned, just fellowship, looking at bus porn, talking buses, and just about anything else that's legal, or nearly so. Don't be shy, you don't have to have a bus to join us, just come on down and spend some time having a good time. Maybe even Bus Warrior will come down with his roving camera and catch us all! For more information, I have the details posted on the MAK Calender. (How I wish Ian would put an event calendar up on this board!) http://www.busconversions.com/bbs/index.php?topic=18758.0 The link for RV Relay Station copied wrong so it's a broken link.

Our Agent has inform us that we have a potentially conflicting engagement that pays a substantially higher figure than you have previously offered. We would be more than happy to re-consider your INCREASED offer for OUR entertainment services.. however we will need a 500% increase in the down payment AND... the backstage catering MUST include the following.... a bowl with nothing but RED M&M's for my esteemed Stooge and Filet Mignon 1/2 Lb. snacks for his Canine assistants (med. rare) 6- new Dunlop 22.5 X 11 Tires to be mounted on the "Tour Bus" before we depart.... We will also require 2 GPS units & fuel for our return to wherever... Knowing your good character, we ASS-U-ME that this will be no problem & that our contract with you will be as valid as your ugliness & cooking skills.  | ||

ummm,  After all, I have a PD4905 held as hostage... it should bring at least enough to pay for the rest of my conversion. (Message edited by Dallas on March 03, 2011) | ||

The owner of the campground has informed us that they will give a $2 discount for the rally. That will bring it down to $25/night, and may make it easier for some of the lesser people... like those with Covairs or Volvos. I have also been reliably informed that I'll be making good ol' Eastern Carolina pulled pork. (Thankyou SWMBO), I'm good at the pulled pork, but it would be nice if someone wanted to do some real Texas smoked Brisket! Any takers? Wife also brought home news that we will be having some Jalapeno sausages, Hot Dogs, (I would prefer the real frankfurters if anyone can get them for me), and for the after party, a big pot of Ribs and kraut! (We won't do it during so that the ladies present won't be offended by the aroma after dinner!).... that is unless there's enough interest from the aforementioned ladies! | ||

Dawggone it Dal, I'd come just for the food. The humor (I'm guessing that y'all's antics are better when seen) would be a bonus. But I can't this year. This workin' thing gets in the way of my social life. | ||

Well Hell...If Jim can't make it there.... I'm thinking....whatz the use of me showing up? I don't like the taste of roasted Penguin at all... Nellie has gone 404 Chormie is staying away Ian has better things to do ....it's starting to look like a flat tire in Texas come the end of the month... ...and still no word on the retainer from the promoter... whom I hear has just received a load of hamburger Helper to cut his costs... I suppose he is watering the Liquor shaving the Ice & dusting the pepper too. Beside that... Fooey went looking at 3 busses yesterday... and made a down-payment on 4 of them....> | ||

Jim, you could always call in sick, maybe use Leprosy as the malady! Mr. Eudyptula minor, we'll be happy to provide what you ask for, provided you: Take at least 4 baths the morning you arrive.. and use soap this time. get the 55 gallon barrel of Listerine and use it all at the time you are taking your bath(s), Wash all your clothes in Lye, or if that's not available, use some Drano... preferably while you are wearing the only set of clothes that you own. PS: remember to re-starch the Cravat and spats before you show up! We are a picky group and only want the best here! | ||

Chormie is staying away I would be there if I could but there is that little thing called diesel at 4.10 a gallon in Cali that has most just staying home here. We have 6 inches in the tank and 2 bad tires. I know I could sell them to George to buy the fuel. But then I would have to drive on the inside rears. Not that a few of you haven't done that before,LoL You will have to try to have fun without me. Roast a winner dog for me. Chromie (Message edited by chrome_dome on March 04, 2011) | ||

Chromie... you only need enough fuel @ $4.10/gallon to get out of California. Then you can buy it for $4.50/gallon by the time you get to Az. oops, $4.75... oops, $5.45..... | ||
