Purpose: A good opportunity to recognize the hard work our dorki moderators have done. We can give out gag awards.

Being that my wife has been very understanding about the p-car (actually cars in general) fascination, I thought it might also be a good opportunity for the wife to meet the people I hang out with. Maybe for all with significant others, we can take this opportunity to say "thanks".

Roses to be handed out to the ladies and balloons will be given to the kids.

Gag awards:

-Smack of the Year
-AAA Award (car spends more time being repaired than driven)
-Dorki of the Year (Best representative dorki)
-Dorkie Instructor of the Year (Best dorki instructor)
-Dorki car of the Year (Best representative dorki car)
-Leschanderitis Award

[Jazzbass]

Man! I'm waitlisted! Can one more instructor please sign up so I can get in? Oh... wait...

[William Miller]

In reviewing the list it seems like this really didn't turn out to be a family night. So I have a babysitter on call.
Vu, my kids are now on optional status.
If you need them, fine, but I'd rather open up the 3 spots for those on the wait list.
Let me know!

Chris, see if you whine enough you get what you want!
I'm not good at smack. Why do I bother?

I guess I'm the only one bringing kids....

But if you do line up a babysitter, then those waitlisted should be able to attend no problem. Let me know what you decide so that I can let the waitlisters know.

Thanks!

[Chronos]

With my daughter entering her terrible two's, we're trying to find a sitter in case the wait list opens... no luck so far!

[William Miller]

That was my offer! Babysitter is lined up so please take my kids off and put Chris and others on!
Maybe we need the bigger room?

Woo-hooo! Maybe you can take smack lessons from Pari.

[William Miller]

Yea, could, but just wouldn't be the same!
Can't talk much smack with your car on the stands.
Someday...... soon, I hope!

[87turbolook911]
