How hard will I have to twist your arm? Come on, those greasy burgers in the cafe are worth the trip by themselves.

Maybe we could get Tholian to bring along his laser pointer and startle traffic on the Throgs Neck again.

No Luv, they don't have a web presence that I'm aware of. The date is 11/19/05 9AM-5PM. The location id the Freeport Rec center on Long Island. I have directions if you need them or you can meet/follow us if you so desire.

Now you have to admit that we did have fun. Of course, during the Monsoon, the drive in was "exciting".

Tholian · Model Overlord

Whats the one this weekend that you are not going to?

Let me know so I can find the info, and you can give me Directions. But this time I will skip going to the Bronx Zoo. Rather go straight through to the show. LOL

This Weekend is LIARS the Long Island Auto Replica Society show at the Freeport Rec Ctr. A bunch of the TNMCC guys are going (as of last night's Meeting).

I fully expect to go to Gettysburg with Jose but he has been known to cancel at the last minute so who knows.

Thanks for reminding me about the meeting LOL

Hey look, the meeting is the First Monday of every month unless that Monday is a holiday and the Rec Center is closed. (ie Labor Day or Independence Day). Got a Calendar?

Went to the LIHMCS in Freeport Long Island With Doc and Celtic today. Doc won a Bronze for his Ducati Motorcycle, and I believe Silver for his 1/350th Tug Boat. I myself won a Silver for my D-8 Bulldozer, and a Bronze for my Overall Sci-Fi Model Display.

We had a great time, and the awards again this year were pewter trophy’s, which are nice because they display next to the piece if you want to do it that way. Had some traffic on the way down with some Tree workers, and another where a Car tried to become an Airplane and landed in a Tree. But otherwise the day went pretty well.

You can look at my Pictures of the pieces on my Fotki Site at http://public.fotki.com/Tholian/model_show_pictures/lihmcs_2005/

Hope you enjoy them!

And thanks to my expert navigation we managed not to go to the zoo again.

Celtic · Skill Level 3

And I was sooo looking forward to seeing all of the animals. We went right by the Zoo exit, and didn't even slow down. Jeez!!!!!

If you paint figures at all, any type, that's the show to go to in the East. The quality of work is simply outstanding! And with Tholian as your driver, you will have a good time. I never knew that a sun roof could double as a tank turret hatch!!!! There are some Long Islanders who will never be the same again!!!!
