Title: CANCELLED - Laguna GP Race Watch at Boyd's BBQ - CANCELLED
Post by: never2loud on July 13, 2008, 03:46:45 PM


Well.... I'm sorry to do it but after having the week from hell in Austin, I'm just getting back home and looking at the mountain of shit that's gotta get done between now and Sunday for our Race Watch party...

I'm totally outta juice so our GP party on Sunday just ain't happenin'.

I'm seriously gonna try and make it to Cory's party over at CDC's tomorrow though.

Lisa




                                                         ------------------------------------------------------------


I'm thinking it'd be nice to have a race watch over at our house on the 20th (Sunday).  We'll have the MotoGP race on the big-screen TV and some BBQ goin' on the grill.

We'll take care of the food - y'all bring whatever it is you want to drink  ;D

We're in Flower Mound (a few miles west of Lewisville, northwest of Lake Grapevine).  Easy access from I35W and FM 2499.

Come on over  [thumbsup]

Very nice offer!! I'll have to see if I can make it. I have invited a good friend over to hang out and watch the race. He's not one of this group and is going through some tough money issues. He's kinda bummed. Thought it would be good to see him and watch the race at the same time. Have not heard back from him yet. If he's a no show then I will need to check the kitchen points total because I will have burned a lot doing the Cory party at cdc's house on Saturday. I'll keep an eye on it. [thumbsup]

MotoGP race starts at 4pm.  There's all kinds of racing that day (ALMS from Mid Ohio at 11am, F1 at noon, WSBK from noon to 2pm - choices, choices - then MotoGP at 4  :D ) so I think if you guys want to show up around 3 or so we can sit around for a bit and graze [bacon] , watch the Laguna race, then have some big BBQ afterwards.

I may at least have to take a nap in the middle of CDC living room floor...
you know... just so I can compare it to LYD's floor (which was very nice and cushy BTW!   [thumbsup] ).

Super nice of you and Alan to put this on! You guys are going to be there right? ;D Sam's been warned of the invading force I hope. No reason to scare him like the last BBQ party. [laugh] I think B8's "meat mustache" kinda scared everyone! Seriously, great of ya'll to offer up Casa Boyd for the mob. My friend chimed in so we'll probably just chill here at house and maybe grab some dinner afterwards with the wifely units. Ya'll have fun... as if you need to be told.

Lisa, thanks for having this watch party!  I can't wait, Laguna is a fun circuit to watch.

Cool, thanks Brian.  Sorry you can't make it.

Just a word to the un-initiated; we do NOT have a pool (yet.   ;D  But I am deligently working on fast-tracking the spending bill through Congress...) There will be plenty of A/C and lots of food though.  

Maybe even some  [bacon]

I may have to head to Motopia for that and head over after Bayliss gets a double win.

How the hell can everyone do the BBQ 'stache thing on vegan terms?? Love vegies to death (does that sound right??? ???) but meat mustaches are... well... made out of meat! So there you go! [thumbsup]

Around 3 or so - GP doesn't start till 4.  Anytime before 3 and I'm liable to give you a mop or duster  [roll]  [laugh]

As far as the vegan thing; our rancher buddy behind us has a few dozen head of free-range tofu.  They're trusting little buggers - walk right up to the fence.  That's when you whack 'em with your 10 gauge spatula, right between the... air bubbles.

Ok, two questions:
What is this country you call Motopia?

Is Boyd's location a secret?

Howdy folks - I'm in Austin and haven't had much of a chance to stay "current" with this thread.

It's super easy to get to our house:  if you look at a map of the area due north of D/FW, you'll find Lweisville.  Running east-west is a major highway named FM1171 - it connects I35E and I-35W.

Get yourself on FM1171 going west out of Lewsiville (and WEST of FM/2499.  It's the north-south road we took out of Starbucks on the way to Muenster).

When your on FM1171 about 5 miles west of 2499, you'll come to a stop light.  It's Shiloh Road - there's a Shell station in the northwest quadrant of the intersection and a Fire Station in the southwest quadrant.

Turn left onto Shiloh.

The first street you'll come to on the right is Oakview.

Turn right on Oakview (west).

Go to the very end of the street (top of the little hill). 

We're on the right (6605).



Hope y'all can make it  [thumbsup]

There is a damn good reason guys don't do well with directions and are reluctant to ask someone where the f#@k they are and I think "Cher" just demonstrated why. I rest my case. Anyone stupid enough to argue with those directions? I thought not! [thumbsup] If you get lost you'd better keep it to yourself. :P

I'm looking forward to meeting everyone!

This will be a good time for sure. I would consider bringing my buddy Greg out there but I think I will take advantage of having the family out of the house for the race watch. That way we can appropriately slob out and not use coasters and burp a lot without catching flack. [drink] I would normally say ya'll have a great time but who am I kidding... like this group needs to be told. [bang]

Guys - the deal's off for Sunday's race watch.  Here's the edit to my first post:




Well.... I'm sorry to do it but after having the week from hell in Austin, I'm just getting back home and looking at the mountain of shit that's gotta get done between now and Sunday for our Race Watch party...

I'm totally outta juice so our GP party on Sunday just ain't happenin'.

Chill, all is well. What is good for the Boyd household is good for all of us. Heck, your loss of our craziness may well mean profit and madness for Motopia! I see the fabric of the Ducati universe intact and vibrant. All will find MotoGP/World SBK comfort and personal satisfaction on Sunday. Tread well grasshopper. [thumbsup]

It is a shame the race watch is canceled,
but it would be a true loss if you couldn't make it to Corey's send-off shindig.

You can wash socks or whatever on Sunday while we aren't there.   [thumbsup]
