Well, I know for a fact that he was alive a couple of weeks ago. As for the present, who knows?

Posted by: Racer Chris Nov 10 2004, 05:59 AM

I saw him at STF last night.

Posted by: crash914 Nov 10 2004, 06:17 AM

I got it...!!!

A Where's Dave contest....right now, up to the minute.....oh yea, not up yet....

Posted by: ClayPerrine Nov 10 2004, 06:55 AM

OK... I HAVE to say this....


"Dave's not here man."

Posted by: Part Pricer Nov 10 2004, 06:59 AM

WTF does that mean?

We are vendor neutral. We'll complain about everybody.

Posted by: Brad Roberts Nov 10 2004, 09:41 AM

I personally have been getting the cold shoulder from him. Another person on the admin team has been getting the "cold shoulder" from him also when we meet locally for events.

I suggest someone ASK Dave what is UP..


I forget the movie Clay... but it was funny as hell..LOL

Did anyone ever think that many on here are always pizzzzzing on what goes on at the PP BBS and Dave works there? I wouldn't be too fond of being seen hanging out with a bunch of dorks who did that either if they were slicing at my bacon.

My opinion is my own. Yours will probably differ but who cares. LOL

Posted by: SLITS Nov 10 2004, 10:25 AM

I don't blame Dark, Damp Dave for hanging in other places. This BBS WAS the anthesis of the PP BBS and his affiliation is with PP. Wayne is a good guy, but can get testy at times with his affiliates/employees over conflict of interest. You figure it out!

And Clay - you're busted!!!!!!!

"Hey man, you ran that red light"

"It ok, I'll stop twice for the next one"

Posted by: nebreitling Nov 10 2004, 10:26 AM

it's a shame, he always adds a lot to any group.

Posted by: vsg914 Nov 10 2004, 10:29 AM

Dave spent a day in my car at the MUSR (rally and dinner tour), and I enjoyed his company and conservation. He took ton's of pics that I would love to see. Hmm, I think I'll just email him and see what's up.

Posted by: ClayPerrine Nov 10 2004, 10:44 AM

For What? Liking that movie?

Posted by: mike_the_man Nov 10 2004, 10:52 AM

I miss Dave around here. He seems to know everything. I know he's still active over at Pelican. How can we woo him back over here? This board is way cooler than Pelican!

Posted by: SLITS Nov 10 2004, 10:55 AM

Yea.................Riiiight (from The Earth to The Moon - Geology Professor)

Posted by: ppickerell Nov 10 2004, 11:01 AM

He told me there are not enough political discussions here and he was bored.

Posted by: ppickerell Nov 10 2004, 11:03 AM

Uhhhh, now that his car is running he is out driving it and not on the computer all day anymore.....HE GOT A LIFE :finger2:

Posted by: SLITS Nov 10 2004, 11:04 AM

He also obtained a "legal GF" - she served him a "cease & desist" notice on BBSs

Posted by: ! Nov 10 2004, 11:10 AM

"Dave's not here...."

Was from the original comedy skits that were released on records back in the 70s...the lines, skits and other situational comedic situations were mixed in with the later movies.

In High School....yeah I was a 75 grad...what about it? :finger2:

We all had bootleg cassette tapes and could quote them by heart.

Posted by: Rhodes71/914 Nov 10 2004, 11:23 AM

When I first posted here Dave was a great help. Seems like he pops in every once and a while. I guess I figured that there was possibly a conflict of interest. Although he did manage to plug PP whenever he could. How could his boss complain about that.

Posted by: ! Nov 10 2004, 11:27 AM

He doesn't actually work there....he gets a deal on parts and a spiff here and there for being the resident 914 expert, moderator and such on the PP BBS...he gets some travel and face time at the shows as well.

Posted by: rhodyguy Nov 10 2004, 11:36 AM

good thing he's not getting spliffs. . what's a spiff?

Posted by: tdgray Nov 10 2004, 12:03 PM

Better yet what the hell is a spliff

Posted by: ! Nov 10 2004, 12:10 PM

Freebies...spiff is a semi yiddish word from the wholesale liquor/garment "such a deal" trade

Posted by: cooltimes Nov 10 2004, 12:13 PM

"what's a spiff?"

Isn't that a stihy WinXP extention?
Back on Damp Dave topic,
Damp Dave is one of the unsung heros of our 914 world so what is wrong if he gets pizzzed and jumps away from all the tizzies when he feels like doing that.
Does anyone question when Jack jumped from his box? Same thing.
I see mail from him frequently at another now less mail place for 914 interests.
Don't take it wrong. I like this place too because I can just visit whatever thread catches my interest just as this one did. Why can't it be like that everywhere?

Posted by: Sammy Nov 10 2004, 01:41 PM

Dave's a smart guy.
iffn my boss pissed in my cornflakes for visiting this "forum" I'd just change my screen name and go anony...annon.... anonnnymm..... invisible

Maybe here's here and we don't know it.

Posted by: Dave_Darling Nov 10 2004, 05:46 PM

Sorry, B--I don't mean to come off that way!!

Time, time, time, time is my problem. Not enough hours in the day, and I really overbook myself... (BTW, anyone know how to separate a Honda ball-joint without using explosives or air tools? Aaah, heck.)

Nobody has given me any grief about showing up here. Well, nobody except me. I spend waaaaaay too much time at my "day job" surfing the net. In order to get any work done at all, I needed to cut down on my surfing time. This BBS is the largest one, and the one I can spend the most time on. So I had to cut it out--most of the time.

It was easier before my attorney... I could take all the time I wanted in the evening to surf, and I could at least somewhat keep up with things that way. Now, my evenings are pretty much all spoken for. I'm taking part of this afternoon off to do some chores, including a couple of small projects on her 911...

So it's not because I don't like it here. It's not because you do sometimes piss on the "Bird board"--I can generally take being teased. Heck, I refer people to the Club board all the time in official Pelican emails!! It's simply because there aren't enough hours in the day.

Heh, now I probably won't get the laundry started because I got sucked into the 914club board!!

--DD

PS--Curt, I sent my MUSR pics in to Wayne a while back. I'll pester him to see why they haven't been posted yet...

Posted by: ematulac Nov 10 2004, 07:40 PM

Nice to see hear from ya again, Dave.

Posted by: Racer Chris Nov 10 2004, 08:03 PM

It's what's sticking out of the green smiley face.

Posted by: ! Nov 10 2004, 08:05 PM

A "spleef" is a canadian term for a marahojee and tobacco joint....in Eagle Rock....we called it a pocket rocket....

Posted by: seanery Nov 10 2004, 08:07 PM

dude, tell me you never lived in Eagle Rock!
That place is like the friggen Twilight Zone!

Posted by: Dave_Darling Nov 10 2004, 08:30 PM

"Spliff" or "spleef" is also a Jamaican term for a doobie. A joint. A number. A jay. (And more synonyms abound.)

--DD

(BTW, I'm appreciating how simple the 914 is--every time I try to do anything on the 911, I learn how neat my 914 really is!! I'm batting 0 for 2 tonight.)

Posted by: ! Nov 10 2004, 08:37 PM

YUP...ER in CA....

911? WTF.....? The GF have one?

Posted by: Dave_Darling Nov 10 2004, 08:38 PM

I think those of you that were at the last McBreakfast heard that my company was doing to have a 25% layoff in the near future. Well, that happened last week, while I was out at the dentist's. I was among the 75% that will still have jobs come December 2nd. That was just a tiny bit stressful, let me tell you.

Ditto the whole "mountain of debt" that I am signing up for in the next month. I'm buying a condo that is 2 blocks from where the McBreakfast was. Dealing with loan companies is very very aggravating indeed... One won't stop calling me, the other never returns my calls!!

Anyway, it's time to give up on the left-front turn signal of the poor SC and head back to the GF's. I'll make a PartsHeaven run tomorrow and pick up a fuel gauge, because the sender seems to be working properly and the gauge only reads from full down to 3/4 tank...

--DD


Yes, Mike. The GF now has an 82 SC. Nice car, lovely sounds. I'm beginning to dislike working on it almost as much as on my Honda!!

My lady friend was the bartender at Toppers.

If you can remember them the next day

Posted by: newdeal2 Nov 10 2004, 09:25 PM

I was away for a month and no one missed me

I'm glad Dave surfaced to stop the rumor mill

Posted by: dgw Nov 10 2004, 10:45 PM

BTDT.

I've come up on both sides of that. Stress is the same up to to the official announcement. I was on PTO once, called in from Las Vegas to find out that I had lost. Got the hell out of management after that.

Posted by: rick 918-S Nov 10 2004, 10:54 PM

Dave go away! You stopped the rumor mill!

Posted by: Meredith Nov 11 2004, 12:40 AM

Yeah, really. Who can we gossip about now?

Posted by: neo914-6 Nov 11 2004, 12:42 AM

So that means your work load has increased 33.33%! My company tends to have layoffs right before the holidays...maybe I should see the dentist

Posted by: Steve Nov 11 2004, 12:57 AM

Good to hear from you Dave!!
I was utterly amazed how ridiculous 911's are to work on.
I can't believe all the crap I had to remove just to get to the two oil filters and drain plugs on my 993.
What a pain in the ass....
I felt really comfortable working on my 3.2 in my 914 and thought how bad can a 993 be.

Best of luck with your GF and her 911!!

Posted by: Mark Henry Nov 11 2004, 08:18 AM

A spliff is a hash oil and tabacco joint....or so I've been told


Ahhhhh...High school....the joints...the booze...the parties....

I wish I could remember it...it must have been fun.

Posted by: rhodyguy Nov 11 2004, 10:58 AM

Rastas don't do tobacco. Jah, the lion of the desert. Jamaican holidays for everyone.

Posted by: SLITS Nov 11 2004, 11:05 AM

Dave's not here man!!!!!

Did anyone ever use the giant rolling paper?

Posted by: rhodyguy Nov 11 2004, 11:11 AM

the "BIG BAMBOO". me? never . you have to have a Rastafarian explain the WHOLE thing to you sometime.

Posted by: Carl Nov 11 2004, 11:36 AM

The Dave that doesn't show up here anymore is going to be my neighbor, down the street anyway, so, when he moves in, we won't see him when he doesn't show up here then either.

We'll have to quit the b'fasts at Mickey D's when Dave moves into the condo. It's an easy walk. It was hard enough to get him to fix the 914 when he had to drive.

Posted by: ! Nov 11 2004, 11:41 AM

Rolled my dirty gym socks in that big paper....with the shitty bunk they called POT back then....nobody could tell the diff when we fired it up....

Posted by: rhodyguy Nov 11 2004, 11:55 AM

"Lively Up Yourself", Bob Marley w/spliff.
