[Mike Becker]

We're glad you could come down Laurie.  I have posted a bunch of pix on
the SDP web site.  Click on "News" and then click on one of the recent
update links ("Little Italy" is near the top).

Ah... that must be the bottle of 'vinegar' I won at the POCA  Raffle.
(j/k)
 
Laurie....just back from San Diego's 2nd annual Italian  automobile
festival, 
in "Little Italy," where many streets  were closed off for an all
Italian 
marque extravaganza.  We  were a short step away from the water,
lavishing the 
superb  air, lots of great Italian restaurants, deli's, pubs, quaint
buildings  
and shops, beautiful Italian cars galore, and Ducatis too.   I refrained
from 
buying Italian perfume from the street vendor, any  T-shirt from
Symbolic's 
exhibit or the $150. Ferrari Barbie. I think I  may have finally grown
up.  
About 15 Panteras from the San Diego Chapter  and one Mangusta.  I've
got a slew 
of good photos.. like a close up and  personal shot of Klaus' interior,
Mike 
Becker's new (Kodiak) wheels,  Marshall Smith's black beauty, George 
Bagdaserian's head turner, my brothers'  only upgrade (his radio), a new
person's (Brad 
Diez) bright red modified version  of a '74 w/ Corvette Z06 tailpipes, a

totally lovely looking cream  colored suede headliner, custom dash
w/wild gauges, 
Kinesis wheels, Brembo  brakes, fuel cell, many upgrades and a photo
album 
showing  all his work on this originally green P. It was interesting
although  it 
made my (stock) brother cringe.  His shop, Speedzone Paint and
Bodyworks, is 
in Santee, no wonder!  He just may become a new San  Diego member. Many
more 
P's and pics; and Bruce Mallory womanizing in front  of his charcoal
gray 
metallic P, I wont tell you everything so I have some  content for a
mag. article. 
As a final P. viewing, on the way home,  quite late at night (incognito
in my 
Trailblazer) Gordon and Yvonne  Albrecht had no idea I was trailing
their 
yellow P. on the freeway;  every time I sped up, Gordon went even
faster.  Good 
movin'  Gordon.  
p.s. Thanks Ken Green for mentioning the Open House at the High
Performance  
shop but due to this grand event, I was unable to partake.  How was  it?

I also have many bottles from the factory with Santiago  Signature, yes
I 
really enjoyed the wine when it was fresh, but then I love  Lambrusco,
been 
drinking it since I got the car in 75, but then I really  don't drink,
except 
in Vegas and Lambrusco, but hard to find in  US.

Claudia gave me as many bottles as I could carry home from the  factory,
she 
said it had stored in a very hot building and might have turned  to
Vinegar.
