Anchorage Aviation Tradeshow

There are a few of us getting together at Gwennies at 8am for a greasy breakfast before the show. Anyone around is welcome to join us. It would be fun to meet some of the faces that go with the names.

I only wish I could get that much hair goin'! It's the Social implication of the Mullet thing though, add a drawl to everything and phrases like "Watch this..." closley followed by "Hold my beer." that really set a guy apart.
We'll look for you Wup! Maybe I'll wear a Gar Aero tire on my head instead...

It wouldn't be the first time that a little kid took me down.

I suppose I should get working on t-shirts and hats so you guys can recognize each other at events like this.
