bf no one expects the eyes to be working that well at 9:48. The only reason I caught it because you mentioned the band. My eyes are no where near as tired as they normally would be. I was off work today.

Anyone up to meeting? I know it Christmas and all. Maybe we can set an alternative date like we did for November? Just wanted to get the discussion going

I'm kinda partial to around 6pm-ish. I see they are going to have a dj that night. So we might want to get the same table as last time.

Out on 1/3

Sorry-I can't meet on 1/3. Family obligations....
Frustrating though, especially since I'll be working everyday next week 1/2 mile from the Brat Stop.
Have fun everybody!

Based on how cold it was last time, I think you did park in the "right area". :D
lol Now that I think about it you're right. I cant wait for warmer weather.

The drive was treacherous today

Well I hope everybody had as much fun as i did on the drive to work today.:eek: The temp this morning was -4 and the car started fine. I take 94 south to 294. Normally it takes about 75 min. Today it took about 2 hours. My average speed was about 40 - 45 mph. The one good thing about this is that I had to of been in the 50+ mpg range:D. I dont have scan gauge so i dont know for sure. Normally I can do about 44 - 46 mpg. I have Blizzaks 225/45/18 on my car and they handle great on the snow but when its a thin layer of snow on top of ice, well lets just say the only direction my car didnt move was backwards:eek: . Be safe!

Enrique- Not that I'm bragging but I think I have you beat it took me 3 hours to get from my house to work in downtown Milwaukee. I know what you mean about the car moving in every direction but backwards. Glad to hear you made it ok. Brat Stop sounds good to me. Did you have any dates in mind?
Ben I hope you made it ok.
