Well, thought I'd start the thread.
Who is going to Atlantic City? Anyone besides FrankC going to bring their boat? I am sure this is a stupid question considering the fact that it is still cold as sh*t up there in the great white north.
George, have you talked to SteveA lately? Can you drag him down with you? I'll get Christian from Philly to go, hopefully! And we'll drag my buddy Mike along too. He is good for a few laughs!!!

Scott,
Yes we are talking about the boat show in AC. Since I am to the west of AC, I am thinking that going to your place is out of the question at this point. But, stranger things have happened.
When I drive 1000 miles to get somewhere, I usually don't feel like doing a hell of a lot of driving. But...make it worth our while!
Hope to see you there. The dates are the very first weekend in March.

Oh yeah...I will be bringing up my Cigarette model for you Chris. For those that do not know, I have the original Cigarette, the black one - you know, the famous picture of Don and Knocky(?) in the air?
Hopefully we can get Chris to revamp it.
Chris, how fast does one of those things go anyway?
GEOO, please try and get a hold of Steve and find out if he wants to go.
PaulO and RalphS, you guys interested in going????

Always interested in anything that can make the winter go away for a few hours. What is the date and place? Never been to the A/C one. Didn't even make the NY one this year though I tried.

Geoo not to worry when you get the time!
Gene can't wait to see this R/C

Gentlemen, I am here, and am almost always listening in.
GEO, let me know if you are driving down. I’d love to make the trip, assuming that it fits into my hectic schedule. I’m supposed to be getting married in June?? Not sure yet if we are going to make June because I told Tanya I wouldn’t go through with it until the boat was done. But that’s another whole story, let me know if your going GEO.
Gene, are you definitely going??
It would definitely be a good time.

Hornetman,
Oh I'm goin alright!
I'll be up in Philly within two weeks, and I'll be counting everyday unitl the show.
Right now, I am a bit tired and dizzy from the Superbowl party last night. Hell of a game. I had a feeling that the Ravens would pull it off. They played a great game.
Talk later...nappy time now...

Well my dizziness was not caused by the Superbowl party as I had thought. Seems that I have some kind of upper respitory infection that is invading my estucheon tubes. Those in the know, know that when your estucheon tubes are clogged, your inner ear is saturated with mucous, and will throw off your balance.
That is where I am right now! Still dizzy.
Anyway, enough of the mucous ravings.
Yeah, I'll give everyone a buzz when I arrive. Won't be for a week or so now at least. I still have to put my truck together. Hopefully, I will have it running this weekend.
I am looking forward to this little get together. I will be coming alone I think, my buddy is going to London for 10 days...without me! the little turd. But...can't take the Donzi to England, something about dangerous machinery on the aircraft.
FrankC, the last time I went to Caesar's, I met Cleopatra. She thought my suit was very nice. Do you think that was just a line? She really gave me a nice smile!
Ha! And the last time I was to a casino, I was in Reno playing Blackjack, and winning. I had to leave the table because I felt as though I was on the verge of a heart attack! I tend to get excited like that sometimes, and well, it really gets my heart pumping. Unlike riding in the Donzi, it is a very scary feeling.

I hate to go off topic, but what models are you guys talking about? Gene do you have one of those 32" promotional models that Don made up? I thought I was the only one that had one. What other models do people have? I would love to know what's available.

Frank Civitano

Gene,
I doubt your going to get anything in AC cheap. And if you do it will be a crack house or something like that. You can always bring your own cardboard box. Hay...good luck. Tell Don Trump I said hello.

Well thank goodness for that.
I am stalled right now. Still putting my truck together. It is 98% right now. Hoping to start it today. The thing is nickle and dimeing me to death.
Still need a battery and maybe an alternator.
DaveP, anything in the yard?

Well, the truck blew it's radiator and stalled my departure.
Fixed it with a propane torch and some solder. Looks okay, but it definitely is working!!!
I will be leaving here tomorrow.
Saturday is boat day!!!
FrankC, is there an admission fee? Is this an outdoor, or indoor show? Was that a stupid question? Remember, I just got back from the Miami show!
Hey, BTW, who has the dig pics from our boat ride?

YES - I have the evidence! So far have been befuddled by the posting process. In the interest of sharing now rather than later, I will blast them to Mad Poodle to get some on, perhaps at his discretion.

Okay guys, I am in Philly NOW!!!!
Just about 20-21 hours straight through. Truck ran great.
I DID get about an hours sleep while they were scraping the bodies off the street from some horrible accident just north of Baltimore. 4 lanes of traffic to a complete stop for almost 2 hours at 4 am.
See you tomorrow.
Where do I go?
FrankC, call me? You got the number right? If not...email me.
Christian, get a hold of me.

This show was pretty cool.
Thanks Frank and Mellissa for showing us a good time.
Sorry we didn't call you at Caesars later on. But thing is, we hit it big at the Tropicana and then went casino hopping. All in all, I think we won around $350. Much needed cash to have a good time!
We were going to get a room, but then decided to just leave and go home.
GEOO, I have your book with me, and forgot to give it to Frank. Sorry.
I'll be in Philly for a few more weeks if anyone in the area wants to come over for a few brews. Might be nice considering that the weather is going to be awful.
