[JCell]

u guys suck, the motel is called "motel 6"


just a simple joke..... :(

[Kr33peR]

i got it, but i was just too late to save ya. srys.

[P5Alive]

I wouldn't mind sharing a room if I didn't think you all were queers.

:p

[Rubber Duck]

so i still haven't decided if i will stay or not. i might stay overnight even if we don't decide on what we will do on sunday. in that case, i will check out the local real estate scene. we shall see. if I don't stay, then someone else needs to reserve the hotels

[JCell]

well i already for the 2 days off, so either way is cool by me


i'm sure there HAS to be something col and cheap to do up there

[MazPro]

I thinkI'll stay too if we don't do anything on sunday, and come back sunday morning.

[JCell]

[MazPro]

Busch Gardens’ Sheikra Will Push You Over the Edge – Literally!

Busch Gardens unveils SheiKra, the first dive roller coaster in North America during Memorial Day weekend. Set among the jungle ruins of a once-mighty African civilization, SheiKra will carry riders up 200 feet at 45 degrees, then hurtle them 70 mph back toward the ground at a 90-degree angle. SheiKra is the first dive coaster to incorporate an Immelmann loop, a water feature, and a second 90-degree, 138-foot drop through an underground tunnel. The ride also includes a 360-degree climbing carousel. SheiKra’s 3,188 feet of steel track offers a total ride time of just over three minutes. It will be the first coaster of its kind in North America and only the third in the world. Similar diving coasters in England and Taiwan can’t match the height, speed and intensity SheiKra will offer.

[JCell]

i heard about it, can't wait

[Rubber Duck]

i saw the commercial for the new coaster today for the first time. note to self: bring extra underwear.

[JCell]

u though the commecial was bad?

Note to Self:

- Do not sit next to Dima on any rollercoaster rides.

[Rubber Duck]

bro, why the heck would you want to watch the video and spoil the "surprise" for yourself. i know they have a video up but i haven't watched it since i want to experience it and see it with my own eyes first.

[Rubber Duck]

can't wait, 5 more days

[icespeed]

hey guys,

Shari and I are going to have to meet you there. Just found out that my grandma flies out of Daytona @ 6:00am on Sat. So Shari and I are going up friday night to take her to the airport. We'll leave Daytona around 9:00am or so. We should get to tampa around the same time as yawl.

See ya there

[JCell]

lol :D

there is another special at busch gardens. if you bring a pepsi product (find an empty can on the street) to the gate when you buy a ticket, you get a free lunch with a drink and a second drink later in the day.

i figure the lunch with 2 drinks will run about $10, so that's $10 savings.

[JCell]

weird, the papsi can doesn't mention this...



4 more days!! :)

[Rubber Duck]

yeah, i know. but it was in the newspaper and on the website so any product will do i guess.

[JCell]

hey Dima, has a place been determined where we r meeting the tampa people yet?


russ(pimpprotege) was tellin me that the dome would be a good place

[Kr33peR]

weird, the papsi can doesn't mention this. the papsi might not, but the Pepsi one just might say something about it.

[Rubber Duck]

yeah, we are meeting them at the dome.

please confirm that these are the people going:
Arvin
Jose (bring your car bro, you are going to love the drive)
Jamie
Sean
Vito

i assume jamie and jose will share a room as well as arvin and vito
i will share a room with my bro. so we need 3 rooms and i have 5 reserved.
i will cancell the extra rooms on friday unless i hear before 12pm friday that somebody else is going or someone wants to stay by themselves in a room.

[JCell]

wow, i thought more people were goin.....

[Rubber Duck]

well if you get more people to go then more people would be going

[Rubber Duck]

there isn't that many people in the club anymore.i think we only have 20 members now,lol
the following people might go:

bobby with the yellow mp3
ivan
dean
camilo
marc?

[tviera]

there isn't that many people in the club anymore.i think we only have 20 members now,lol
the following people might go:

bobby with the yellow mp3
ivan
dean
camilo
marc?WTF. I'm not in your club anymore? I live a ways away and I'm sorry I'm not around as often as I would like. At least I keep active on the forums. On the other hand, Bobby (wicked one) is still posting shit for sale on CP. BTW he is still sporting the banner across his windshield. WTF, at least I know to come here. By the way, I think I have two new recruits from Palm Beach, not bad for a non club member.


I'm sorry if I'm out of line. I'm drunk.

[tviera]

Being that nobody has posted yet I was going to edit that last post. Then I figured I'd leave it because I said it and I can't take it back. ( I feel like I'm talking to my girlfriend after a drunken night out on the town. ) After reading Dima's post( #33 ) I realized that I had miss read it.

"I'm sorry baby. You know I love you. I'll never drink again or grope that girl. I know, but she looked at least 17. That really doesn't matter baby, what matters is I love you. I hope you can forgive me. Where would you like to eat tonight? Your choice. Anywhere, just name it. Hang on, let me draw you a warm bath then I'll give you a back massage."

Now I expect you guys to give me the cold shoulder for a few days. I'll understand if we don't have makeup............... nevermind, I just can't say that.

Once again, I'm sorry.


P.S. sex. There I said it. Are you happy now?

[MazPro]

yeah, we are meeting them at the dome.

Arvin
Jose (bring your car bro, you are going to love the drive)

[/thead jack]

its' allright tony. i forgive you. and i would like to let everyone know that if tony is found in a west palm beach canal with a bullet to the back of his head execution style, it is not my fault.

<off to the side> igor, come here. i got a job for you....

[JCell]

well, i just finished fucking up my car, it now leaks oil at about a drop every 10 seconds from the drain plug...... :mad:


can i ride with someone?

[Rubber Duck]

you retards :D the point of a road trip is to take your own car and have fun driving and seeing people's faces when they see a caravan of protege's. it does no one any good if you are riding with someone. might as well take a bus, lol

[JCell]

can i ride the small bus again?

[Kr33peR]

WTF. I'm not in your club anymore? no ur definately in the club still Tony. it just wouldnt be the same without you. i mean shit we need someone to drive around drunk on a go-kart for our own personal amusment every once in a while.

p.s. - sry that took so long. ive been out of town and not paying that much attention to the boards.

[P5Alive]

Dima, Marlon and his brother are going as well and will need one room.

Also, I have room for one if someone needs a ride.

Jaime, is your plug leaking oil because of worn thread? If so, just put a lot of teflon tape on it and screw it back in.

Jose, run the engine with the rad. cap off and look to see if the water is flowing. If it's not, then it could be your thermostat or you water pump. If it's the thermostat, then it's a quick fix...if it's the water pump, then it gets a little more complicated.

Either way, if there is any doubt on how your car is going to do on this trip then I don't suggest you take even though it would be nice to go up with with a bunch of cars. I rather see less cars on the road rather than all of us on the side of the road trying to fix one of them.

fuck, i just canceled 2 rooms. i had to cancel them by 4 or stuck paying for them. why do people wait untill the last minute? i'll call them and find out if i can get them back for same price. in worst case scenario they'll end up paying $5 more if the hotel has rooms. i am off to the meet now.

[Rubber Duck]

ok, i got 1 room back so we have 4 rooms. i am off to the meet and i am going home at 9 to be in bed at 10pm. go to bed early people, lets enjoy the drive, not fall asleep behind the wheel

[P5Alive]

Phuck...9:15 and I'm still doing laundry. I'll be in bed soon but I can't guarantee that I'll get any sleep. Nothing a little Cuban coffee in the morning won't cure.

[JCell]

it's 10:48 and i'm washing tha car...... :)

[MazPro]

go to sleep, you'll need it tomorrow.

[JCell]

anyone else up yet, i'm leaving for wallmart in 40 minutes......

[MazPro]

I'm up too.

[Kr33peR]

[Kr33peR]

[MazPro]

[JCell]

[P5Alive]

[MazPro]

Jaime's picture is hilarious!

[icespeed]

[MazPro]

[icespeed]

[Kr33peR]

im not changing the attachment size so learn to crop/resize images biatch!

[Kr33peR]

[MazPro]

[JCell]

[P5Alive]

[Rubber Duck]
