Default Belated: Finman, congrats!

I've been in class all week at work, which means I have to do my normal responsibilies after hours. I haven't had a chance to read the A6 forum all week. I had to go back 8 pages to get to your picts. Beautiful car.

I almost disrupted class a few minutes ago - I was reading your bird posts and started chuckling to myself, a little more loudly than I should have. (Having Internet connectivity while in class is great for the non-interested lectures.) It's amazing how your car has been targetted. Are you sure it isn't jealous 2.8 Avant owners bringing their own birds over to your car? ;-)

Default Thanks...fortunately someone gave the birds some Imodium ;)

Nothing for 2 days...
Yesterday, after it's 3rd car wash in 4 days...I Zaino'd it for the first time...it was a little chilly (in the garage) so I waited about 4 hours to remove the Z...but apparently it needed about 5 hours in some spots...there's a little Z left over in a few areas...unnoticeable except to me...I would've just removed it later, but we took a drive and that always means dust...no way am I rubbing a towel on that now! Hafta' wait for the next wash...maybe tomorrow before football?

Thanks for the congrats...perhaps next time you should just stand up and show everyone the pics...they'd have to appreciate your dedication

You're "in class" and have a 4.2??? Damn, that's sweet.

Whoa! Am I now "the" Chuck instead of the "other" Chuck? I don't want that responsibility!

Continuing education. Networking world (Internet, etc.) moves too fast. Gotta keep up.

Default Don't worry- it's simple. Post a lot of magazine crap that pisses everyone off, debate it a bit,...

then kiss up at the end. Works for me and besides, Andre actually likes it when I "question" his S6 claims. He LOVES to rumble (and he's usually right)! :-)

Default Did that for 22 years...I'm done with the cold...I love year round golfing weather :)

When I want cold and snow, I'll just drive a couple hours...but damn, that doesn't solve the bird crap issue!
