Number 6. If Texas is so big and there is so much land, why don't they double the length of the entrance and exit ramps on the Interstate to 20 feet" This was uttered by two different people, Jerry Scholten (and me) at different times. When I said it, Marcia said that Jerry had said the same thing earlier.Number 5. "In my next life I don't want to come back as his girlfriend or wife. I want to come back as his car so he will pay a little attention to me". This one will remain anonymous. Number 4. "$ 121" During the auction of the model "High Voltage Blue" Prowler. This bid was given by Kristian, Age 6 (?), Tami and Ken Fischer's son. He walked right past me after someone bid $ 120 and said "121". Tami grabbed him and lifted him off the ground by his lips, I think. lol. Number 3. "Don't worry Ed, the road feels rougher than it really is." The immortal words of Pauley "YOGI" Hines as he lead us on a beautiful side trip. It was very scenic and almost wide enough for two cars to pass, winding, and crossed 7 creeks, including one road that was closed for high water. We never went over 100 MPH. We did do 100, but not one MPH over it. It was still worth it and we were glad we went along. Number 2. "We will be at the track before the group." See number 3. We arrived slightly after them. AGAIN, no regrets, it was fun. Number 1. Judy's mom told me that "The house is really mine" and she was letting Mike and Judy stay with her until Mike found a decent job. He has been out of work for quite awhile and she is helping them get through the rough financial period. She wishes Mike would just get a regular job in a factory instead of this pipe dream of being a business man, so he could support his family. lol This message has been edited by ed monahan on 06-14-2004 at 01:46 AM

The best one that I wish Dan would have had his video on was from Gary E. ...in his guffly kinda low concerned voice...while trying to drive my car with Dan taking pictures in a rain storm and row up the kinda broke drivers window at the same time while Dan was trying to hold the top closed where the little hook things at the top of the wind shield are broke......... . . ............ "Sonn of aa Bitcch "......

After an exhausting plane ride tuesday night I take a cab To Chris'house with the directions he gave me. You have to picture this-pouring rain,45 minute cab ride with an Ethiopian driver whose English is just partial...finally get there,he starts unloading my suitcase...I look at the house(I've never been there before)and notice a name in the front that says Smith.By this time,I figure of all things he's taken me to the wrong house,probably the wrong part of town altogether.Trying to get Chris on the phone but can't get an answer...the last thing I want to do is go into the Smiths'backyard looking for my ride. Finally the driver says to me...Sir,I think Smith might mean Smith Security,not Smith the owner of the house. I haven't felt so stupid in my life.....I look over and see that the neighbor has Smith on the front as well... I guess it helps a lot being from Canada sometimes!------------------

Those were all great Ed. I think we can add Mike Gatlin's remark during the raffle drawings - "I don't seem to be a winner tonite with these raffle tickets I'm holding,, that I bought at the 2003 Smokies event"Another Gatlin classic - someone during the raffle won a money clip with a watch embedded in it,,,,,Mike's comment: "Now you can see what time it is when you run out of money at the event"

Talked with Ray Bartels from Houston and this one's really funny. Ray and Gail sit at the bar at the hotel and ask the bartender(whose back is turned towards them)for a drink. Nothing happens,so they ask again.Once again,nothing happens.By this time Ray is getting really upset with poor service. The person next to him turns around and says-You can yell all you want,but the guy id deaf. Nothing like having clear communication...

Romam I love you but we have to draw a line.
