    Frank; finally got the Mav put together and got the fan to fit, a little tight, but it is fine. Also got a new headliner put in. Have a great time in Hannibal, and a safe trip home. Call if you need anything. Say hi to Effie for me! Later,

    If you have never been to a Gathering you have no idea what you are missing. Not just the guys but also the wives and children have a great time. The sooner you start going to them the more fun you have as you get to watch the kids grow up too.

    We have not decided where the next one will be yet. We should probably make a decision some time in October as the proposals have to be in by Sept. 30th.

    BTW, I have a lot of pics of the cars in the show and the paking lot sessions. Also at the track. As I explained at the meeting on Friday night, I do save mine for the next issue of the newsletter. If you want to see them and all the back issues of the MCG newsletters you can see them by joining the MCG here. http://www.maverickcometgroup.com/Joining.jsp .The dues are only $10 a year and the newsletter is quarterly and is usually about 20 pages long. Other than the cover sheet, all the other pages are new material each issue.:)

    I knew my wife was talking and telling :16suspect

    As for too much sleeping. I think I figured out what has been happening. I been drinking Red Bulls and seems like after a while I would get sleepy. I had about 6-7 of them in two days. The last day I was there I began to develop a headache. Sunday when we left I had a bad headache and it lasted a couple more days. I began thinking back to the last bad headache and remember I was drinking a bunch of Red Bulls then also. Last summer I would take a cooler and drink them cold at job sites. I ended up going to the hospitol and they couldn't find anything wrong, even after a $3000 scan. They should tell you how much things cost before they do these things so you know if you want to have it done. :mad:.. I feel a headache trying to come on. :(

    Gene, If you are being serious about drinking the Red Bull and getting headaches and all that please make sure you stay away from them. There is more than just caffiene in those things and people do have adverse reactions to some of the stuff in them. Be careful with all those Energy drinks they can be dangerous to some people and in certain quantities

    I think it is the taurine that most people have problems with
