[Gabz]

[Gabz]

[don-o]

Haven't been much help this go around. Spent the last two days car shopping and buying.

don-o is very pleased to have purchased his first minivan, a 1999 Town and Country.

After years of tolling around in a 91 Volvo 240, it feels like the Queen Mary.

[don-o]

Tolling?

make that tooling, or trolling or something that makes sense.

I swear, I just poured my first drink.

[Gabz]

LOL!!!!!

I spent almost 15 years driving an 82 LeBaron convertible - and then went to a Olds Siloutte - first time I drove it I thought I was in a rocket ship!!!

[don-o]

I test drove a Silo, and liked it fine (I believe the Chrysler has a smoother ride) but the dealer would not deal. I got a pretty sweet deal on an all wheel drive, fully loaded T & C with 29k miles.

BTW, gabz, what is that graphic you posted? Me eyes ain't what they used to be.

[christine]

lucy in the sky with diamonds?

[WIMom]

First!

[WIMom]

Congratulations!

[WIMom]

Yes we are!

[WIMom]

Gosh, I'm sorry, RottiBiz just posted her lists and I made a new thread. I'll go sit in the corner....

[glock rocks]

first

after having been beaten up by a 1949 frigidare all morning (duct tape and superglue heaven), i guess i didn't have much confidence left ;-)

but my beer fridge is defrosted, and ready and able to handle summertime!

[don-o]

Thanks WiMom.

I heartily loathe buying cars, but the resources and information available on the internet made this one almost fun.I had three dealers competing for my business and for once feel that I got the best possible price on what I wanted.

[WIMom]

And, you were first. Oh the joys in life!

[Gabz]

I think we need to start abusing so those 2 sissy pink states - what says you??????

[RottiBiz]

Don't feel bad, Mom. I'll just post them again!

[WIMom]

I think they are hurting for business right now.

[WIMom]

I have to leave for awhile, I should be back in an hour or two.

[firewalk]

Last bump for me tonight, have to sign off early.
Goodnight everyone!

How often do we do these? Is it every quarter? I don't keep track of how often I send money - I just wait for someone to throw one of these freepathons together.

[dutchess]

Hubby is laughing in the other room as I sneak here...we rented movies to be together....said I had to "go pee" and maybe see how the water softener level was LOL....(he knew I was coming here)

Looks like another great fundraiser and you guys deserve so much credit.... Any bets on when the final amount will be raised???????

[glock rocks]
