Yeah, I'm definately down for that.

I pass that area 2x a day on my way to work and back...

But why there? What's there besides Strawbridges and IKEA. I mean, wouldn't it be better to go an additional 6 miles (or 6 miles less) and hit the KOP mall? They've got more stuff there and a movie theatre and stuff.

Don't get me wrong, it'd be fun and all, but I had more in mind than just sitting out in the parking lot.

BTW... I'm having a BBQ at my place near Trenton, NJ on the 29th. I wouldn't call it a club get-together by any means, as I'm having a lot of other friends come by, but if anyone is interested in having some beers and BBQ, send me a PM.

mp5 June-6th-2002 11:23 AM

I picked plymouth meeting because the turn pike, 76, 202,and the blue route all cme together there. I have the added advantage of woking at IKEA and I know that lot will be available for us as well as within the view of passerbys if they wish to stop.
KOP mall is a cluster f*** on a saturday!

Who knows maybe you and I will moderate the philly chapter!

Accurit June-6th-2002 04:51 PM

TRI-STATE MEET
 
I'll definitely go if I don't have anything going on.

Brubeck June-6th-2002 08:19 PM

He this is really cool... actually people going to go to this thing. We've had rumblings about doing something forever. Good work man.

Yeah... you're right KOP can be FUBAR on Saturday.

That'd be cool to moderate the philly chapter. Even if there's only a few of us, its as good an excuse as any to cut lose...

tradr June-6th-2002 08:40 PM

Hmm.. thats only like 160 miles from me. I might consider going (I'm VERY reliable if I commit to it).. I'll let you guys know about a week beforehand.

Now that they raised the water restrictions up here.. ohhh my car would get there really shiny :D

tee-hee... I wouldn't let a little rain spoil the festivities!!! We can stand around in our rain coats and compare how well each other's wax beads... LOL.

I'm fairly opposed to kegs in public lots... something about John Q. Law and his outlook on that. But if some unwitting protegeclub.com member had a backyard nearby... I'll chip in half for the keg (I'd spend that much in an hour at Applebees).

mp5 June-7th-2002 08:55 AM

pardon the mispell... ill give my diploma back and begin paying tuition again... its not john q law that concerns me... its patrolman King (he's got a big doggie too). I work with him all the time. ill explain later.

Brubeck June-7th-2002 11:30 AM

Okay.

Don't worry the misspel, it brought up another interesting point we hadn't though of... will there be a rain date?

A little before the meet, I'm gonna send you a list of parts I'm missing... I swear, half of my house is IKEA. I'm actually suprised you having seen me stuffin' the back of the P5 over there... been there twice since I got the car. You wouldn't believe how much furniture'll fit in the back of those things :D

mp5 June-7th-2002 11:31 PM

for the record:

I dont know the names, part numbers, or how to put anything together... You lost the parts on your own...I am not sweedish...

I may have actually seen you. My employees tend to point out mp5's. My guess is to stay on my good side. They call them station wagons. I tend to get very defensive.

If you have found any spelling or gramatical errors, please feel free to PM me...

Just an idea. The rain date could be at auto x (solo2) to in boing's lot in south philly. That is Sunday the 23rd. Since we are obviously the "moderators" of Philly-Whadya think?


MISSPEL?:D :D

Brubeck June-8th-2002 06:05 AM

The AutoX sounds cool. I'm not ready to get into one yet... but I'd like to see what goes on... take some photos, etc.

I was kidding about the missing pieces. Actually, you've got one of the nicer stores I've been to. Everytime I find a missing piece (actually only twice), I drop by on my way home from work. Show the part on the instructions to who-ever's behind the cust serv desk, and I'm usually good to go in less than a few minutes.

You think about putting in an invite over at the other board, protegemp3.com or whatever it is? We shouldn't let site administrators get in the way of having a decent local chapter.

mp5 June-8th-2002 07:52 AM

Gro:

95 north to 476 (we call that the blue route) take that to exit 20- Germantown pike west- stay in the right lane. you will see the mall on your right. we will be between strawbridges and the road. If you need more email me and well get in contact.:stickpoke

mp5 June-8th-2002 07:57 AM

Brubeck:

Didi u see? over 100 views... where is everybody else?:explode:

Brubeck June-8th-2002 09:16 AM

Well dude, you have 11 posts in this thread and I have like 8...
You view it once before you post, and once after... so you're talking like 50 of those 100 views are from you and me :(.

I'm going to post up at the other board. We should try to get Protege5Gurly to come. She's in Jersey a little North of me. I understand she's done some Mad Mods to her p5... I'd like to check those out.

mp5 June-8th-2002 11:55 AM

i hear ya, i mite as well call ya...:flush:

Brubeck June-12th-2002 04:14 PM

WoW!
 
Talk about generating some buzz about this one... NOT!

Where the F. is everyone?

Well dude, I plan on going... even if my wife bails on me and you're the only other person that's going to be there. By God!!! We'll drink a beer and enjoy it!

I think I dropped the ball on something.:rolleyes: .. You gotta PM then.

mp5 June-12th-2002 04:54 PM

we may have scared everyone off whe we mentioned "wife" that makes us sound old...:wtf:

tradr June-13th-2002 01:18 AM

ok, I will not be able to make this meet.. sorry guys.

too many things going on that weekend up near this area.

mp5 June-13th-2002 09:27 PM

Not to be defensive:
 
We are not old! Well I'm not. I don't know about the dude from Jersey:bsflag:

mp5 June-16th-2002 09:45 PM

Should we tailgate or just or just opt for applebees?:evilgrin:

Bruce95fmla June-17th-2002 11:37 AM

where and when is this going down
Bruce

Brubeck June-17th-2002 04:32 PM

Plymouth Meeting Mall... you'd take I-95 South through Jersey to Exit 6... then take the PA Turnpike West to Norristown (exit 25). Follow signs for Plymouth Road, then make a left on to Plymouth Road and a right on to Germantown Pike. Follow signs for mall traffic only - You will see Strawbriges on your left and a bunch of protos... IKEA will be on you right and the mall will be on your left.

It'd take approx 1 hr. 45 minute from the exit of the Holland Tunnel.

The "when" is June 22, but I'm not sure about the time.

mp5 June-17th-2002 07:51 PM

1pm for the proto meet and 430pm for the subaru meet (we were invited)

Brubeck June-18th-2002 08:13 AM

kewl! :D
 
I'd like to check out the Subaru crowd, but it's going to be tight. I'd hate to have to refer to the missus twice in the same thread but... I can probably squeeze in an extra couple of hours.

jmp5215 June-18th-2002 08:51 AM

I would like to know the time everyone is meeting up. I have a Party that i am hosting for a going away party. But i would also like to attend this meet. Could someone email me and keep me posted. Jmp5215@aol.com
Thanks

lost_concept June-18th-2002 02:49 PM

Yeah i can go as well, but would probaly get lost or something on the way there

Brubeck June-18th-2002 06:30 PM

OK... the directions from NYC, NJ are posted twice in this thread... I'm not going to post them again... you can read the thread if you want more information. If you are coming from somewhere else, let us know where you are coming from, and we'll give you directions.

Regarding the time... It starts at 1:00. And the Subaru meet starts at 4:30. That 3.5 hours if you can't do quick math.

There are two reasons that the Subaru thing came up.
1.) MP5 is tight with those guys cause he spun with them before he totalled his Subaru - I can't wait to see pictures
2.) The Pro get-together was looking very bleak, as only MP5 and myself were committed. We figured we might as well hang out with somebody.

Obviously, if 5 or more guys show up to this Protege thing, and I'm having a good time, I'll say "Fuck you very much" and skip the Subaru crowd... I'd much rather do my own thing anyway.

The mall is an opportunity because it's a big space so we can fit a lot of cars, but also because there are a couple decent places to eat and other things to do in the area.

It's entirely up to you guys, but I would definately like to anybody show up.

Accurit June-18th-2002 06:56 PM

i l be there for sure....but i m having a Subaru meet that day as well on DEL Ave at the pep boys at 4 so i have to bounce before 3 =)
