OK, I hate to say this, but some of the members actually do other stuff than hang around here every day. Sorry, I know it's a shock to everyone. Give the guy a chance to catch his breath, he is crochety enough to reply on his own in good time. Guys, 7 days is hardly enough time to start divvying up his car stuff. First dibs..........

Frank, curious if you have joined the Chevelles site yet. Good bunch over there too. I have been there as long as here, with no Chevelle to my name.

My wife and I recently went on a cruise to Italy and Greece but with my IPhone I still read the Forum! My wife thinks I'm obsessed...maybe cause I'm reading MikeM posts as I'm walking around the Coliseum.

Me too...none of us are getting any younger and I was recently saddened to find out forum member "evergreen" out of Alaska is lost to us now. Hopefully, Jim just has other interesting pastimes keeping him busy...

Its nice to see that despite the gruff show you guys can put on, you really are a good bunch of guys.

As a newbie, I don't know any of you (yet!) but its cool to see the "virtual" corvette brotherhood bond is strong.

Kudos!

No - sometimes folks get banned from here for a while...sorta like a 'time out'...but I don't think that's the case with Jim; maybe he's just tired of use and taking a break..
