Fantastic!
Any more and there'll be too many to talk to and catch up with!
Extra points to anyone who shows up with their Corvette.

Just like last year, weather permitting, mine will be there for sure.

Hey don't rub it in, I'm still looking. I didn't realize this but I'm getting picky on what I choose.

Why it took me 3 years after I sold my '03 to settle on my '05. For the money this hobby costs, might as well find what you really want.

So, I spent about 6 hours today driving around Brampton, checking out the local pool halls and the 1 bowling alley. I got to tell you I was not that impressed. First off, I hate driving in Brampton through the day. OMG the amount of traffic on the streets. It's ridiculous. Toronto ain't got nothing on Brampton. Second, some of these drivers are crazy aggressive. You have to be to get anywhere, but jeez. I saw a lot of dinged up cars. I hope night time traffic will be a bit easier.

Stopped at Aria and I have to say, if you're not paying attention for the restaurant, cause, you know, you're paying attention to the fools in front, beside and behind you, you can easily miss it.

I had a list of about 15 licensed pool halls and only 1 bowling alley. All within a 20 min drive of the restaurant. I visited every one of them and of the 15, there was only 1 pool hall I'd consider going too and it had to be the one furthest away from Aria. The others were nothing more than hole in the wall dives.

There is one other option that I was thinking of and that would be to go to a dance club. Blue Suede Sues is supposed to have really good music on Friday nights.

Obseshon Mark has a suggestion for us to go to Jake's Boathouse at 410 & Steeles, so that's what we're gonna do. Great idea Mark.

Default Just so you know...

Without Stan and Jack's generosity, and kindness, no way could Cripp and Nanette attend!

You should be proud of these two guys.

We'll see youse there!

Talked to the restaurant. We are now confirmed for 35 people. If anyone else shows up, we will be able to make room. They will be seating us in a U shaped layout where we can talk to our neighbors as well as those across from us.
