I got the ketchup, mustard, and HELMAN'S as well.


Don't forget a spatula to use on the grill.

Why, you little ... ! :p If you're going to bring the "lesser" may, at least spell it correctly!

Young, I'll pick up a bag o' charcoal and some MIRACLE WHIP, since someone here refuses to acknowledge the superiority of it.

Not to be a party pooper, but I'd assume alcohol is banned at NJ parks. So, beer might be a little obvious. Luckily, I've got a bottle of Kettle One burning a hole in my pantry. Can you say vodka & code red? Yes, I think you can.

I know I spelled it wrong, but I was just testing you.

Booze is supposed to be illegal, but nobody will be patrolling in the 'offseason' that early, and if you drink from cups, they don't bother you at all anyway.

I always enjoy a good buzz in the morning.

Screw the Johnny Blue. Jack Daniels, Green Label. I'll bring some booze. We can always get more stuff if we need, right?

It's looking like I'm bringing the truck, so if we need more charcoal to grill or want to go and kill something to grill, you guys won't have to dirty your nice Benzes...

They have tennis courts at the park, yes? Should I bring my racket? I have spare rackets and ***** (yeah, I said *****) if anyone wants...

And, I really did think about bringing the 6.9, but driving with an expired registration in NJ on a Saturday is asking for it.

How many vehicles do you have, Benze? Are you a used-car dealer?

Oh, and don't bother washing that thing. We plan some serious 4-wheeling in your rover.

Haaa! Petie, send me a case of the Green Label! Actually, I'm going to DC next weekend and I know a place that sells the stuff... I love the South; grew up in Maryland, always considered myself a southerner and not a yankee...

Anyway, since this is the NE meet.

Offroading, now we're talking! I have three cars. Crazy, huh? 6.9 is the only one I bought with my own dough; I'm only the second owner, which I think is cool for a car so old. My dream is to have a driveway that looks like a used car lot. Then I can be like a Southern redneck, drinkin my green label on the porch.

And yes, I have a shotgun.

I regret the day that I sold my 1994 E320 cabrio to move to NYC. I will find her again someday!

Hey gang, I'm sorry I had to eat and run. Turns out the boss would have let me stay longer.
But I did get to the game in time to see the kid complete her hat trick.

Next time, I'll plan better.

Hi all, I just wanted to post that it was nice to meet all of you on Saturday and that I was sorry I had to run off.

Next time, I'll bring the Benz, to be sure, and I'll stay and get ripped with the rest of you. I hope the case of Heineken was enjoyed.

Happy Autumn!

Thanks; it'll be enjoyed by me for the next week or so.

Actually, I think Safet enjoyed it a little too much, and tried to mow down little kiddies in the parking lot after you left.

The younger the better! I was going to get a purple interior for Barney, but thought he was on his way down.
