If you water people keep poking the the Splitty people, one of us is going to
get irritated enough to explain to you about our snobbery, so just shut up
about it. I have been biting my tongue and gritting my teeth so far...
As far as pulling up next to another VW at a light or something and them not
reacting, I have often wondered about how you can see an old Bug or Bus
(usually a bay) drive by and the question is, are they enthusiasts or just
driving an old car. For the ones driving an old car they are probably pretty
cranky that they can't afford anything newer, so, technically, they are
anti-enthusiasts.
And if they are in Texas, but are having to live in Texas, well, that could
make them cranky, too.

Driving a split is more like flying a kite than driving a vehicle.
I enjoy flying kites.

into my Bay!!!

Not sure where you got that idea from!
I know I drive a good vehicle, no inferiority here.
I am just curious why some splitty drivers seem so snobby !

No worries. I am just amazed that there are so
many that don't see that they are all related and you can keep this great hobby
alive without both air and water. Yeah there are a lot of air cooled out there,
I have 2 air projects myself, but they ain't making them anymore. My Vanagon
makes 2 water cooled projects as well. John

It's more about poking fun at people who drive
bricks that should be found in foundation walls vs. Vintage aircooleds; not
about animosity. ;-)

I don't understand why so many air guys and water guys don't appreciate the
other. We all have VW emblems so... Why can't we all just get along?!?!

Yeah, someone with my sense of humor. Mark and
I are going to see the traveling Star Wars in Concert show at the end of
October, here at the Toyota Center. I am so excited. Anthony Daniels (CP-3O)
is supposed to be the narrator for the concert. Also there is supposed to be
diplays of costumes and artifacts from all 6 movies. I know, I know. I am a
Star Wars geek. But I don't care.
I will always believe in The Force.

I am exited! Today after work I went to
Lonnie's house and changed the belts on my 86 Westy and then drove her home to
my house approx. 18 miles down the highway! While to most of you may thing less
than 20 miles is no big deal, remember I got this VW less than a month ago and
it had not run for over 3 years. Lonnie and other good friends, not to forget
my father, helped her back into running shape with just 2 Saturdays to work on
the engine. My thanks goes to Lonnie and the rest of them.

p.s. Paul, it looks like you will have another
one at T@P6! I just won't know for sure until I pull in the lot. LOL
