Tony:

I attended the event last year without my Cobra, but weather permitting I will be there. It was a great little gathering last year. If you do not mind, will contact a few of the other Joisey Boys around to see if I can get them to attend. I know of at least a few of them that would love to be included.

Jim

Ok here it goes,
The Columbus center cobra club is not an organized club. When I first got my cobra I starting working here at Columbus center. My two bosses after seeing my car went out and got ones for themselves. So I decide we would be the Columbus center cobra club. It’s a lot like the army saying, we are an army of one.... we are a club of 3!!!!!
I came up with our logo and it just took off from there. I get a permit from the city and hire a photographer to take pictures of us and I buy T- shirts to give out to all who make the run into the city.
Hope that clears the air on the Columbus center cobra club???

OK, I think I get it now. Too bad you already had the Cobra to get them hooked. They coulda gotten 3 and given you a company car...

>>Ray, didn't Tony show you the secret handshake.<<

Not yet. He said I needed at least a year's suffering and penance hanging out with the club before I get it...

Add another Joisey guy to the Columbus Circle get together.

Sal -- Make sure you pick up Ron on your way in. Don't take a "no" from him.

He asked me if he could ride shotgun with me. Like I would say no . Just waiting to hear back from him on it for sure.

Bill, since when is it a question when it comes to you and the Juice????
Does that mean you need a permit to carry the Juice through the tunnel??
inquiring minds need to know....

I am going to error on the side of caution. It is not a combustabile matrial in the Vehicle and traffic law but why take the chance. I will leave it home.
