No sweat Joelle....happy to help. You know it's your obligation to tell Ron I said, 'Hi' and 'Go Rounds!' right?
I will! I always pass along your regards to him when I see him!

For the next 2 weeks Vince, yes. I work in the designer area at Saks Fifth Avenue... a boutique called Les Copains. Ya know what? I have NEVER stepped foot into the Wynn.

I never had until last weekend. I went to go check it out & get a feel for the place before I started working there. I went to the Penske/Wynn Ferrari dealership & the adjoining Ferrari store & it was LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT! I'm a huge F1 fan & Michael Schumacher is my favorite.
I can't afford the Ferrari I want right now, but I'll be spending some cash in their store at the Wynn.
It cost $10 to get into the dealership unless you're a Ferrari owner. They have several cars on display upstairs. Downstairs they have upwards of 50 cars (I believe) in a fabulous exotic collection.
Sorry to derail the thread, but any 'Maters coming to Vegas who've not been to the Ferrari dealership & store should go check it out ---- if that's you're type of thing. (And it should be).
Kimi Raikonnen is taking Schumi's place at Ferrari next year. And while I love Kimi & can't wait to see him in a realible Ferrari, as opposed to his Mclaren Mercedes which always lets him down mechanically, I'm very, very sad that Michael S. will retire after Brazil in 2 weeks.

Won't be the same without JAS and Noise. I look forward to seeing everyone that will be here.

I may just have to place this thread on "Ignore". I'm really starting to get bummed out about not making this race after several years of perfect attendance. I'm definitely going to miss seeing all the Mater crew. There is a sliver of a chance that I'll get to Pomona but that's not looking to good either at the moment.

Can't wait, can't wait, can't wait ... a week away.
I am finally going to buy my tickets online this weekend, I think...or I may just wait till I get to the track. I am none too keen on the idea of giving TicketBastard my hard earned money.
In any case, I'll have my blackberry while I'm there, so someone just shoot me a message at [email protected] to let me know when and where to show up.
Oh, Kelly H., I seem to recall a discussion about getting Capps a real men wear pink t-shirt...I can't remember the context, just that he needs a pink t-shirt.
