i hit 666 a while ago and stopped posting the other forums where post count is tracked.

Yup. I went to one evo meet for a short time frame. Not sure it was really my thing.

I should be going to a subbie meet this year. I hear they spend minimal time w/ cars, most time in bars, which is more my style.

shouldn't it be "an I"?

"and me" just doesn't sound right.

also, what are your thoughts on the oxford comma?

This is all just in fun right? I'm bored today.

Me - is an object pronoun. With - is a preposition and "me" is one of the objects of the prepositional phrase - with Justin and me.

I've become a fan of sentence diagraming. Last year my 4th grader had to do it for homework. It's much more fun as an adult than it was as a student.

I use the oxford comma (aka serial comma) too.

But this is the internet. All we need are cool tags.

yes, yes it is in Murrysville, but even that point is roughly an hour for me.

I was visiting some friends in the North Hills and stumbled across an evo meet a while back @ Fox & Hound on McKnight. That's another hour travel, but I'm sure that's like 90minutes+ for you guys out east.

Yeah I hear you on the travel times.... and as for the subie meets down in robinson, I am a former STi owner and yes it is very very true they spend no time whatsoever around the cars and checking out others set ups and whatnot and more time in QuakerStake than anything. Still a good time tho, a few Evo's show up but its usually no more than four or five. I've always called those meets just "high wing" meets not subie meets considering there are other cars than just Subaru's there
