matt1215 0 #11 July 30, 2006 :1:1 I did a 15K H&P with Allen (alw) and had my first brake-fire (on a house rig ). No biggie, just leveled off with the offending rear riser long enough to see what I had and popped the other brake. Set brakes would've been really nice, but my bigger concern is lots of ppl AFF with that rig. Reason for the BF was nearly disintegrated velcro on one of the toggles.

Vallerina 2 #13 July 31, 2006 0:2:0 It was just too hot to be doing any kind of movement this weekend. Friday night, I went out to CSC for some big fun, and I forced people to watch my JFTC dvd. I think they all enjoyed it...or they all lied. Saturday, I was very lazy. I joined in on Aarthi's 1000th (even though I'm not her friend) and had to buy TD lunch for him smoking my ass on getting to the formation. I also did a very nice four-way with 1/2 Rubicon and Andy. Then, I headed to a friend's farewell party in Chicago (he's moving to CO....20 miles from the tunnel.) Watch out CO folks....Chicago definitely won't be as much fun anymore...and I hope CO can handle him. I keep telling him about the tunnel. He said, "Doesn't it get boring? It's so small....what can you possibly do in there?" Sigh....well, at least I have a place to stay out there now, so I'll be hitting that tunnel before too long! Today, I hung out with my nephews all day, and I went swimming with them. Now, it's time to recover from everything this weekend.There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vallerina 2 #17 July 31, 2006 I'm seriously considering buying him the first flight gift certificate as his housewarming gift. I figure he fed me, gave me alcohol, let me stay at his place for the past few years....it's the least I can do. (Plus, I want to make sure he has no excuses to NOT go....)There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
