(I wonder if Keith Moudy (sp?) would make the trip. Sure would be grrrrreat to see him! Mebby he could bring some of his harem along! Anybody got his number???)

Well, in the elk (hunting) camps, whomever has "tagged out" or otherwise relighted to the campsite instead of hunting is the designated "camp bitch".

The "CB's" responsibilities are to make sure things at camp run as smoothly as possible, and assist the rest that are still in the hunt. Y'all are "in the hunt" this year; I'm not. So, I guess that makes me the designated, "camp bitch". But, that doan mean none of youz can try to take advantage of the situation...(PETE!). Get frisky an you'll get slapped silly by THIS camp BITCH!!

Are we havin' fun yet???
Paul:

I will not make this event. My son has a soccer tournement on Sunday. The kids are at that age that their schedule has taken over. The Corvettes have been parked for a while. If not soccer, it's volleyball, or music, or school, etc.

But it's a wonderful time!

Hey Joe, hope his team does well. Been there when the kid's schedule runs your life.

kind of fun to read about you guys with kids and can't go. from 90 to 97 I wanted to go to a lot of the ZR-1 weekends and could not due to the kids. I was 39 back than and had the same problem. Now that I am 62 and have time to do some of this stuff, but now I am just a little slower than back than, take a little longer to do stuff!

so hang in their all you young guys! some day you will not know what to do with all the time you will have on the weekends.

I just hope I can pull the lever as fast as I use to and not miss a gear! don't know if my left leg will move as fast as my right arm.

but the neat thing is the 90 is just the same! I get in it and I do feel like I am 39 once more.

Dean, I've got you by a half dozen years and I just put cutouts on my 95. Haibeck 510 pkg. Left leg still works, seems like the shifts are fast enough. I am a teenager with a permagrin!--Bob
