    Wow, Outmotoring moves out of Columbus and M/A moves in. You do realize how much weight you will gain, hanging out with the Mid-Ohio group don't you? :lol:

    Those all sound like valid reasons to me. Have a safe trip. :Thumbsup:

    I'm happy to hear that it is now "o-fish-oil". I can envision the GNAT running hard on the Salamander. Welcome Nathan to MOM...let the donut eating begin :Thumbsup:

    Well, Nathan......
    Let me be the first to welcome you to Columbus, Ohio. Yes, the Short North is an interesting place, for sure.

    "While I will miss the Friday night dinners of dry overcooked Chicken, over salted mashed potatoes and limp veggies" :eek: I hope your sister in law doesn't read M/A. The food selection in and around the Short North is quite nice, but you may have a hard time finding your special "Chicken Tater and Veggie" preference.

    Shirts are packaged and labeled ready to be dropped off at the Post Office on Tuedsay, Monday they are closed for Presidents Day.

    I've been to Mid-Ohio for a DE and CART events. Mansell was driving then. Still have the Red 5 Tee Shirt. Spun in Madness during the DE, went down that hill backwards...

    Also have been to Putnam Park where I was a Viper Days instructor. The coupe was there as a preproduction model for testing. Have vivid memories of running out of brake at the end of the front straight when they tossed me the keys for a few hot laps. One sure does travel a long way in a soybean field.

    I miss cols sometimes

    expecailly in the fall. Do not miss the rainy spring and summer seasons, or the winters, but the fall was glorius. Left there in 1979 after 8 years of living in Hilliard. Received my formal Porsche-Audi training at PA north (now MAG) and left alot of close friends and good memories behind. Today I couldnt do the winters or the rain, I am a spoiled Cali brat, but there is a lot to live for in Columbus, Ohio, enjoy it and congrats on your move!!:Thumbsup:

    I will look forward to seeing you up at Chad's and I am planning on the Pub Run! Best of luck with the move. If I didn't have conflicting plans, read work, I'd pitch in with the unload for sure. Give a shout when you head up to Motown.

    Cheers!

    Wow Nathan, sounds like a great opportunity. I wish for you good weather, an excellent packer (to fit all those odd shaped boxes into the van), and a sense of adventure to edure through the tough spots. Sometimes a cross country move really is the perfect solution ( I speak from experience). Can't wait to here about the new roads you discover!

    My day job can be accomplished anyplace there is a decent internet connection. I'm an independent contractor that has a focus on vBulletin consulting, Q/A for software, websites and iOS apps along with technical writing.

    My commute is going to be shorter as the place I'm moving into is smaller.

    I'll be passing you a few times come the fall, in the space of 4 weeks I have 2 weddings and a Bat Mitzvah in the area. I'll be an I-70 commuter for a month. I miss my McCutcheons Apple Butter too. That and fresh pressed unpasteurized cider.

    GSI Managed Hosting Services - PCI Compliant Hosting, Corporate Hosting | GSI Hosting, A Layered Tech Company They were just purchased by Layered Tech based here in Plano.

    I use URLJet who is co-lo'ed at GSI Kansas. M/A is not big enough to go direct to a provider such as GSI and I want a more managed server than they offer at the pricing the site can afford.
