i will be going through Sacremento at about 10 am on Thursday, so anyone who lives there should come up with a good spot, i think one of the Rest areas would be good as they are easy to get in and out of and you could have a mile marker to know which one ?? and make it on the south side ???
just an idea.

so who lived there and can do this?

I think Mike P. is planning on hooking up with you Blake in or around Sacto... he lives just outside of Sac and probably knows the area well?

Mike?

GregWeld 12-08-2010 08:27 AM

I'll be coming thru Ptown to pick up the "Main Event Bobby B".... and we'll be ballin' in something big and black and spinning twin turbos.... that I'm not sure you'll be able to keep up with....

Send me PM or email and lets connect for this trip in Ptown if we can.

WE want to be in that No Cali town (It's actually now in Northern Mexico) for the Thursday afternoon meet up at "Giantworks". In order to do that - we'd really need to leave on WEDNESDAY I think?

Giantville in No Mexico is 857 miles SOUTH of Ptown.... and while I once drove my truck and trailer 1050 miles in one day -- I don't care to do that again...

I was thinking of heading out Wed nes day - and stopping at Neds dump in Manteca so we can beat him about the head and face.... then head out early Thursday and doing the Thursday afternoon thing?


ADDED THIS: I'd also like to stop and pound on the other giants - Charley and Jody in Scratch-your-momento area on the way down.... IF - BIG IF - they'd ALLOW us to see them.

I'm not really sure if that was English, Or just Pacific Northwest Environmental Hippie Trucker Talk, But there is a minimum Height requirement in Giantville and you are not there. Plus it is just plain obvious you not a teenager awaiting your final growth spurt, even though I'm quite sure you did not get ever get a growth spurt, I do not make the rules. But if you would like to confront Jody and Charlie you will need to pick on someone your own size and since you would have to stand on Bob's shoulder while he is standing on Tony's shoulders to be that size, I'm not sure how effective that would be or safe. Maybe we could schedule a midget wrestling event to go with our dinner activities.

Hey now take it easy! If Greg was on Tony's shoulders he'd be your height no need for me to be in the middle of them. I am atleast to your chest. Them 2 are at your belt buckle.
Maybe you should get one of your guys to make you a nice belt buckle with ironworks logo and your truck on it. It'll give them something to look at.

ironworks 12-09-2010 12:41 PM

So only the height issue was the problem. The Masked Mexican Wrestler joke is fine.

Sorry Bob, It would not have been as funny with out you. Your just a casualty of Comedy. My Apologized to you. It will never happen again......

Just consider it payback for trying to crash me every time I lapped you Monday night. Now we are even.

GregWeld 12-09-2010 05:58 PM

I don't get all this height debate to begin with.... Look = here's a height comparison - and with the correct SHIRT on to show my support for the event...

My armpit is WELL ABOVE the valve cover here! So.... :cheers: :woot:

I'm not sure why everyone thinks I'm so tall. Seems pretty average to me.

Kneel down and look at the brakes on the front of that Tonka Toy you're leaning on.... That needs some WAY BIGGER brakes!

ironworks 12-14-2010 07:35 PM

Why would you say such a thing? Would you want anybody to say those things about you? They maybe small but they sure spit some big game.
