    I am NOT a techie and am proud of it. The ONLY reason I even have a PC is because I would have lost my job if I had not learned how to use one, if not even moderately. It is TRUE about what Crashton said about my returning his old Smart Phone. I have NO USE it...I don't take pics with my flip phone, nor do I down or upload any of that crap. I'm happy being me. I'm well-educated, well-traveled, bilingual, and retired. My wife and I just celebrated our 50th anniversary in December. I own 3 "new" MINIs and have a great dog.

    By the way, Wisconsin is only known outside its state lines for its musky fishing and the Green Bay Packers!:Devilish:

    Good.

    And-
    That's false. We're known for our walleye fishing, cheese, beer, da Badgers, and da Packers.

    Actually, the Packers and Bart Starr were honored at my high school's 100th anniversary of football. Packer stadium and my high school's are alike in that the fans own the stadiums and both teams are rich in tradition...mine being Ohio high school [Massillon Tigers] and the Packers being pros, though. Bart was Master of Ceremonies.

    Ummm...Lake Erie is known for walleye fishing.

    Yup, but Lake Erie is closer to me and there's a lot more to do there besides fishing or eating cheese.:D

    Nope - only have 93. :Yawn: You can get race gas at certain places but that is a little harder to find.

    I finally found a set of white wheels I really like. What kind and make are those and do you have a source. Thanks, Teddy

    Did you do it yourself? If so, was it an easy job?

    Here's the courtesy car I had from my local MINI dealership. I drove it somewhat far and back and it ate a lot of gas in Sport mode.

    The color on the R53 is nice. Now that you have had a few days with the Countryman how do you like it.
