Weekly Meet in College Park Starbucks

[ShesRockinAdurty30]

Damn, what time do you guys get off work?

I normally get off around 6-6:30pm, come home from DC by about 7:30-8. FML!

Viet and I as well. This meet is hard because everyone leaves so early... the one in Fairlakes usually goes till about 10. I think we should tentatively schedule food/eating at 8:30ish. If you don't want to eat, than so be it... but it seems like a lot of people are more in the later time frame than the earlier one.

so we should go to hard tymes at like 830ish?

The people who want to... definitely. It's hard for us to get out there any earlier.

that statement could not be farther from the truth. hahaha

If we really starts to count heads, the people that show up on time are also the people that show up every week.

But thats irrelevant. The point is, there are two groups, ones that shows up on time will go get something to eat earlier and the later group will just join us when they get here. It not a big deal.

But lets just make sure we are all going to hard times and that as people come in, they know where to go.

I don't know that I'd go as far as saying "that statement could not be farther from the truth"... I exaggerated, yeah, but I believe that there are a fair amount of people on either end.

As far as "on time".... we drive from NoVa and leaving at/around 6 we're stuck in traffic, all be it not your fault, nor ours... it's something we'd like to participate in, and we WOULD be more consistent, if everyone didn't leave so early. When we leave at 6:30-7 we're not getting there till 8-8:30 and everyone is getting ready to dip out. Maybe it's something that we just can't participate in.... it's just painful traveling an hour+ to sit/hangout for all of 30 minutes. No?

I agree, and as I admire your dedication and tenacity (and Viets), like you said it isn't anyone's fault. Nor is anyone expected to be "on time". The truth is, if it were me, I wouldn't drive for an hour + to sit for 30 min. I give you that. In days like today, I'm sure the traffic would be more than horrendous coming from VA. It would without a doubt be 1+ hour if not 2. The other thing is, we aren't really that consistent in how long we stay either. Some times its earlier and sometimes we hang out till 10ish. Last time we were there till 10ish. But as it gets later, everything closes. Starbucks use to close at 11ish and everyone sticks around. But those nice days are gone... :(

gotta thank brody for the Hella H-4's, put em in saturday. light output is great in the dry, but still not so great in the wet.


so i ordered h4 hi-lo 55w 5000k hids.
can't wait for them to get here!!!

[bimmerpirate]

you really would have been better off with 35w 4500k HIDs. that's what i have and they work lots better.

also, i'm going to kick your ass if you dont adjust them correctly. no jk
