I hope your not talking about the 1st. reunion when I did a unintended burn out in the grass. Just put the motor in the Nova & trottle stuck open!! Chased a gal with a baby stroller in the grass. All most the first & last reunion. Wow bad deal. Burford was riding with me he was impressed.

"Shortcakes?"



Long story..........

One of his 'escapades' left him with a bit of road rash, AKA 'Strawberries'. Hence.........



The best part is, HE tells the story better than ANY of us ever could!

Quote; "Hey....I caught the remark from SS427 about Howie's tying down the car next time he decides to work on her...not a bad idea especially after not one but two incidences of that car literally running away with him and the resulting damage to Kim's body...what do ya think of a new nick name for Mr Howie....Shortcake, as in "Strawberry" Shortcake comes to mind...........

Not so sorry Kim as I more than owed you one!
Annie"

I always thought road rash was called "rasberries" but she calls them strawberries.

I thought this was the Gibb Show thread not the Mr. Howie report. What ever it takes to get you guys and gals here. I am afraid we would have to shut the show down if Mr. Howie didn't show up. Being Mayor we do have a few perks to our advantage. We might send the Police Depart, Fire and Amb. out and escort him to the grounds. Might even get a little tv coverage. Seriously, I do feel a little big headed knowing that maybe we had little part in getting this group together 10 year ago. Thanks and keep up the humor, Mayor B
