I forgot if you were bringing me anything but I remember you asking me to tell you if I'd be at the OGTA, which I will be. I think it was going to warrant weather or not you brought something but I'm not sure.

I'm going to sleep... I hate this cold weather. So I'll voluntarily pass on this meet. Come on summer!

Chris, I'll still head home because I live close to work, so I can get my jacket. I don't recall what you might need, but let me know if it comes to you. I'll pick it up while I'm home. Did you get your headlights working reliably?

Well, I may end up missing. 3 of my PITA projects reared the ugly head at the end of the day, so by the time I get out there, I figure most will be gone .

OK, sounds like it's official, here's the 12A count for the February 3, 2009 OG@TA meeting:

2 FBs = 2 12As (Chris, Ray)
1 SE = 1 12A (Crit)
2 nice fuel efficient boingers with back seats = 0 12As (Holly, Kevin)

Total 12As = 3

News of the Day: Kevin has found a new 85 GS, picking it up tomorrow, this one is racing red, pure sex.

Scuttlebutt of the Day: Looks like Holly might have a chance of snagging Crit's spare SE after all.

No photos, too cold for the camera.

Hey guys, for Lit, I had to write a biography of an orange, and make up B.S. about it's personality (stupid personification essay) but it turns out my orange is a rotor head like me! Look at his stem!

Actually Ray, Crit and I only counted 5.5 The 2 FCs only equal 0.5 each. Unless you have upgraded them to 1 point each now. Sorry Colin and Russ. But, they count, unlike my daily.

Whoa, don't get too excited there Mike. He only means that it is still available. I know, it would be cool.

Holly, Ray allowed the FCs to count for a point each because of the cold, but he neglected to get the FB count right. FBs count for 1 point each, historically, including a GSL-SE. SA's count for 1.5.

That's why our math showed 5.5 12A cars, but there really aren't any steadfast rules about these things.

Exactly, we allowed the FC's the special privilege of each counting as a full 12A equivalent for this one time, because it was so friggin' cold. But the FC boys are going to have to do a lot of lobbying to get this written into law.

So the official 12A count for the February 3, 2009 meeting stands at 6.5 12As, not too stogy for a cold night in February.

2 GSLs = 2 12As (Chris, Ray)
1 SE = 1 12A (Crit)
2 nice fuel efficient boingers with back seats = 0 12As (Holly, Kevin)
1 SA = 1.5 12As (Andy)
2 FCs = 2 12As (only on a cold February night; Colin and his vert buddy)

Total = 2 + 1 + 1.5 + 2 = 6.5 12As

I see them everywhere, this I time I just had a way to point it out. A rounded triangle with a circle in the middle was so obvious I had to share it though.
