[Lindsey]

I'm going to change the title and sticky it.
I think it's a great idea to just update this as things happen - like the famous moments...

[Rukh]

You've all been essential to me enjoying my time with this group since early '03 - even the times I was completely frustrated with the group have been entertaining at the least.

I'd particularly like to thank Pat for introducing me to this thing when I met him at the Ft. Carson car wash one fateful Saturday. If it wasn't for this cat, I would never have known about the club.

I'd like to thank Napier for everything he's done on the forum and website. Helping with my cars, hosting me at his house, etc.

Brad, Dan, Carlos, Swank, and Anne - you guys have been particularly outstanding friends, going above and beyond numerous times in helping me out. You all deserve for me to say so much more, but I have a hard time expressing just how much you've done, and just how grateful I am.

Lovett, you've been essential in listening to my random "what if this, what about that" technical ideas - I swear I am going to pull the trigger on the supercharger idea one of these days.

Nate - I can't really express how much you and I click. Sometimes I think it's uncanny, sometimes I think it wierd, and sometimes it scares the shit out of me. Your car inspires me, and I seriously think it's going to be feature material once your freakin bumper is finished.

London, so inspirational and helpful in so many ways. All those long-ass conversations about styling, modding, general advice - priceless. You're the coolest conservative I know.

Thad - for being my true Porsche-nut brother when I need to get my fix.

Greg Dunn - you've always been cooler than dry ice with me, and for that I will remain eternally in your debt, no matter how many times you say otherwise.

Jimmy. Oh Jimbo - I know you've felt like the black sheep of the group at times, but you've always been the first person to volunteer to help, and the first person to volunteer advice whether I need it or not. Through it all, you've been there - even if I did have to pull you back that one time, talking on somebody else's cell phone on top of a mountain in the middle of nowhere, when it was snowing freaking Dippin Dots.

Nick: even though I've only met you a couple of times, I think you're one seriously cool cat. I look forward to spending more time with you and getting to know what you're about. Thanks for all the help with the luge stuff.

I know there are alot more people to thank, but it'd take me forever to get through you all. Maybe I'll add to my post later; as it is now I'd just like to thank you all for adding your own unique contributions to the group and making it the best club/group thing in Colorado if not the world.

[Scott]

I'd like to thank God, my family, the Academy, all of my fans, everyone who voted for me, and most of all the guy at Harbor Freight who sold me that screwdriver set.  :mrgreen:  :mrgreen:

[Rukh]

LMAO @ Harbor Freight - So True!

[The Asshole]

Jimmy for being a good friend, drinking buddy, concert buddy, confidant and shade tree mechanic...  It's great to know when I need to work on my cars Jimmy will show up with tools and a case of pbr...

Jimmy. Oh Jimbo - I know you've felt like the black sheep of the group at times, but you've always been the first person to volunteer to help, and the first person to volunteer advice whether I need it or not. Through it all, you've been there - even if I did have to pull you back that one time, talking on somebody else's cell phone on top of a mountain in the middle of nowhere, when it was snowing freaking Dippin Dots.

i thank both of you for the recognition, it feels good to be remebered at times and appriciated... thanks. :-)


the last few years of my life have been pretty rough with everything that has happened and all the changes occured. BUT through the really dark times Mike and Jess L AND all of you in edition719 have helped me pull through those times and onto better days...
 so with that i would like to give thanks to everyone on here.

nappy: for always answering his phone when i call with really stupid questions

pat: for the good times, and for schooling me on VWs

london: for inspiring my ideas of VW styling

anne: for always being there with a friendly face

nick: for cheering me up while im at work before you go to the GTGs

Los: not sure how to say this. but thanks for changing my opinion of you, and changing from someone i couldn't stand to a friend, whom i respect even if i give you shit quiet often. it takes a lot to change my opinion on anything.

lindsey: for being accepting of everyone (except strange women i meet in bars) and being calm and cool headed woman who can sooth everyone on this board when we quarrel.

Mike L: for being my best friend and always having an open ear, sound advice, a place for me at your table and in your house.

allison: for always smiling and giving a warm welcome to everyone when they arrive at the GTG or other events.

Lovette: for always being there for me when i need help with my vws that i blew up

Josh: for being the 719 grammar nazi, for for being someone who is always willing to listen to everyones oppinions and for being someone that we all can go to for advice on many different subjects. and for always having some oddball topics and sweetass Pchops to post which make these threads a lot more entertaining.

i am sure i forgot someone who deserves recognition, as i always do, if i left you out, it wasn't intentional and my appologies. i will post more later.

[LOS]

I thought of a couple more...
Josh, I owe you a huge thanks. You drove all the way across san fran to look at jetta wagons for me when I was shopping, and eventually made sure my GTI was in the condition I thought it was in.  Thanks for getting me from the airport in SFO and dropping me off to get the GTI.  Then ya let me crash on your couch....  I still need to go back w/ a dynamite stick and show that parking block whos boss after i broke a toe running across the parking lot!

London/pat/craig... helping me put the suspension on the jetta when i didn't have a fucking clue about what i was doing and letting me be the guinney pig on the mk4 suspension swap.  Remember the super spreader?  

nappy... thanks for helping me change the water pump in the passat....

Cox, thanks for all the help w/ the mk3 and the ignition in the passat.  oh and thanks for getting me into 4wheeling you bastid!

Linds... thanks for sticking it out w/ me and getting me back into camping!

I'll think of more as they come to me...

[MistressAnne]

It's going to take me a long time to get all of this typed out.... i don't even know where to start, so I'll just work on it and copy it here when I get finished.  :mrgreen:

[kyvr6]

[Scott]

[Lindsey]

Linds... thanks for sticking it out w/ me and getting me back into camping!

[Barbie]

Thanks to all of ya'll that have made me feel so welcomed!  You are a great bunch and fun to be around.  I think its great how you all help each other out and how much fun you all have with eachother.  

I like the forums, they're great to read and participate in and thanks to all of you that get my twisted sense of humor which most of you seem to share.  

And thanks to my honey for being sooo Awesome!

Kordd- Even though we have our differences, I have a better understanding of you now. :rolleyes:   :mrgreen:

Claudia- For trusting me with your cars.  ;-)  

Scott- I have a lot to be thankful for as a result of being friends with you. Hours and hours spent hanging out at your house because i was bored or wanted something to do. For dragging me out to the first DATR meeting after you came back from Iraq. Coming to my rescues many times. I could keep going, but I really want you to know how much I appreciate your friendship.

Craig- You have the ability to make me laugh no matter what kind of mood I am in. :giggle:

Sherri- Thank you for motivating me (I did meet my goal this week :mrgreen: ). And for helping me find bras that fit right.  ;-)

Dan (dj)- Introducing me to Robin, the BBQ's and hanging out. :beer:

Richard- For being able to take a joke.

Joe (haji)- for being a friend.

Heather and Jason (London)- For good times hanging out, and for letting me borrow the couch.  ;-)

Pat- I don't know where to start with you either. The first "mods" that I did to my car are because of you. I still get crap for that.   All of the good times hanging out at your house. For those that are newer, you were almost able to go to Pat's house on any given weekend and there were people there working on cars. All of the advice you have given me has been wonderful. I value your friendship greatly, and I want you to know that.

Jimmy- You have been a great friend throught these last few years. always ready to jump in and help out with almost anything. For driving me home on more than one occasion even though I live across town.  :mrgreen:

BGC- I will admit at first I was intimidated by you; after all you are 2 feet taller than me. thanks for the parties at your house, and for entertaining me on my b-day. :beer:

Picky- I am still waiting for that part off the Decepticon.

Renegade VW club- (Mitch, Eric, Scooter, etc.) I still can't get that PPV?? right. Thank you guys for showing me that air heads aren't all that bad.

Lovett- Squishy bear! For hosting all of the parties in the big house. Loads and loads of hugs, bringing smiles wherever you go. For being the loudest guy in the room and the "Scott face"

.... to be continued...

[3s-a-Charm]

Jonathan- For keeping me entertained during the day and putting up with my teasing.  ;-)

Shawn- For being an enabler? I am sure I would have more piercings and tattoo's if I wasn't going to get in trouble for them.  :twisted:  hanging out at the shop is fun too.
