Anthony, you NEED to check out the GLTDR ( http://gltdr.org ) and if you aren't already aware of it check out Dave's Diesel Thunder in Muncie - only an hour or so south of Michigan - the GLTDR is putting it on ( http://gltdr.org/muncie01/june9.html ). We PLAY HARD!!

I'm in MI. Lenawee County (pronounced Lin-away, but that's just in case, you probably knew that already). But if I were you, I wouldn't hang out with me, I'm not cool. If I were you, I'd only hang out with the GLTDR. They ARE cool. Seriously.

Besides, I'm just stock. So not only am I not cool, but I'm just plain too. And I'm slow, both mentally and in my stock truck.

Check out the GLTDR, they're worth becoming involved with.

DISCLAIMER - This reply was not necessarily intended to be totally serious. The writer of this reply has poor sarcasm/writing skills, therefore this was a poor attempt at sarcasm. The statements about the GLTDR being cool are exempt from the embedded sarcasm.

Hey Anthony,

JyRO, I don't know what is going on, but GLTDR guys are genuinely good people. I did not meet you at the last event so I am a little confused, are you a member or just bashing the club? It is not necessary to bash the club if you have a problem with it, just stay away from it.

Anthony, hook up with the GLTDR guys, they are a good bunch and are a lot of fun. Hope to see you at an event in the future.

LSMITH - Uhhhhhh, what the? I tried to make it painfully obvious that any sarcasm was directed toward myself. I EVEN stated that I was serious about the GLTDR being cool. How could you mistake that? It doesn't get any clearer than that! Maybe you should read it again, and comprehend. I even said that the statements about the GLTDR were exempt from sarcasm!

Whats with you GLTDR guys? Does the GLTDR have posters hanging up at their HQ with JyRO in them saying, "Wanted... ?" Everytime I get anything from you GLTDR guys it feels like an attack. Even when I compliment the GLTDR.

Anthony4 - I think they'll be a very cool group for YOU to hang out with and learn. As for me, I am evidently the arch-enemy of the GLTDR even though I really don't want to be, nor have I tried to be. He11, I even tried to get on their good side with my first reply to this post and look where it got me.

[Doc Tinker]

You're cool JyRO - don't get so uptight.

How about going to Thunder in Muncie, so we can all meet you and see how cool you are.

I think we got off on the wrong foot a while back. The GLTDR is a great group of guys. We have a strong sense of brotherhood and are very supportive of each other. I'll admit that we are also a little on the BAD side and enjoy the trill of temping fate, but we talk ourselves out of getting into any real trouble.

Doc - I don't doubt for a second that you GLTDR guys ARE cool. Too bad I'm already on the GLTDR blacklist though. It may be a bad idea for me to show my mug at Muncie.
