You can use any of the pix that I sent you. Sorry that I did not shoot that side shot in High Res., I had just finished shooting pix of an F86 bellytank build shots, so I was trying to save disk space.

Yea, I was at Kentucky Fried Chicken the other day getting to "power" lunch and this little 14 year old girl was with her grandfather ordering and having alot of attitude and being real demanding to her grandfather and he was just taking it. So I leaned over to her and told her that she should be alot nicer. She just looked at me with this evel look and I told her "I'm serious, you really should be nice". The whole place got quiet and just stared at her. I kinda' felt bad for the grandfather, but he just was grinning after I chatted with her.

Hi Chris,
Will look at the swap mets for you. Usually plenty of them for sale, unless Carps finds another one first! Mind you I am still waiting for him to send me one with my car in it that I missed out on!

Thanks guys. If you ever see an extra at a swap meet, if you could pick it up for me that would be great. Let me know how much it is and I can PAYPAL or send you the coin via snail mail.

Thanks,

Does anyone have an extra "Street Machine magazine May, 2002" with the article on Bonneville in it? Carp's was kind enough to send me one a couple of years ago and I have been trying to get an extra copy or two if anyone has one laying around.

Thanks,

OK, if you like a drier style sauce Bryants is VERY GOOD. Also, remember not to go around "lunch time" there will be a line out the door. And if you go to Bryants, take a couple of singles out of you wallet and kinda fold them up (aka: palm them), but keep them in your pocket. And when you get up to the window to order from the guy, look down at your hand which is kinda covering the american bills and order as you set the cash (discreetly) next to his cutting board and he will toss a towel on top of it. And you will have the BIGGEST F-ing sandwich that you have ever tried to eat. If you are eating it there, kinda put the cash under the edge of your plate as you pass the plate to him. But remember to make eye contact and look down at your hand (aka: cash).

If you want a apple style sauce or sweeter. Go to Rosedales down on Southwest Blvd. It is kinda close to mid-town, easy access to Kemper arena. If you want to drive a little bit and here some great Blues, Go to BB's Lawnside BBQ on 85th street it is right down the street from Strouds fried chicken. If you are looking at a map, around 85th and Holmes. If you are staying at the stadium area, you could take 71 south to 85th then go west to BB's. It is kinda like an old "roadhouse", and I think they may charge a dollar or two for the blues band.

If you have any other questions, email me and I can try to help you out.

Oh yea, funny story.

I was at Bryant's and this couple in front of me asked for a beef sandwich and the guy started making it. Tears the butcher paper, slaps it on his cutting board, with his bare hands takes about 8 slices of white wonder bread tosses it on the paper (keep in mind this guys forarms look like he just got out of the pen.) then grabs a handful of meat tosses it on the the bread, slaps two swipes of sauce on top of the meat, then proceed's to wrap (roll the paper) the sandwich up in to a roll for the lady. Her reply was "Sir, is there anything that you don't make with your hands?", to which he reply's "Sure, ribs. Why?", "well, can I get ribs instead?" said the lady. So he say's "Sure". Grabs the meat poker, grabs a slab of ribs out of smoker, lay's them down on his cutting board. Chops them up with his cleaver and takes the ladies plate and looks at her in the eye and takes his elbow and slides them off on to the plate. She took the plate and did not say one more word, and everyone behind her just chuckled.
