• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Pictures

So here is the pictures that I saved-----I down loaded 50 more to some place. I have no idea where they went.

This time I was careful to put the pictures in order---it still did not work.

We met a guy at a bridge that had been restored----He drove up in a truck and started telling us about Rt 66---all good stuff---then about towns down the road that were speed traps---really good stuff.
He asked me if I had ever heard of "Crazy Legs" I was honest and said no.
He tells us that Crazy Legs was on Jay Leno's show and good morning America plus in a number of movies the names of which I forget. Anyway he asks me how far I would go to see him-----I asked where was he and he said 4 feet from me.
I WAS STANDING NEXT TO CRAZY LEGS.
He turned his feet around back words and I took his picture.
Its gone
Then at a gas up Two young girls pulled up to take pictures of PeeWee.
I said stand by him and get your picture taken. Then we took a group photo with me being hugged by the girls
Its gone
The rest of the pictures were of the land around Oklahoma and Texas.
They are gone

Sorry to see that you have lost most of your pictures, I'm sure your buddy Irish has a bunch that will be posted later... Thanks for sharing what you have though...

Oh . . . . .

. . . . now I understand why the guy's computers would not work as they should - they were still in the Gene-Luddite-Field.

I guess they should just be happy their computers did not just burst into flames and disappear. :yikes:

Hi all -I'm home, too. Didn't realize that Brian's page didn't explain my disappearance (which I did explain in another post here today, thanks).
Have to say that I'm sorry Gene's (and PeeWee's) Big Adventure didn't work out as he had planned but am truly glad that he's home safe and sound, too.

The few days I shared with the guys provided me with lots of laughs. Too bad Gene lost the shot of Crazy Legs (underline the crazy..cause he is!) BTW not only did he appear on Jay Leno with his legs/feet pointing backward but he was in the CARS movie, which was, of course, based on Route 66. Larry the Cable Guy was Crazy Legs' voice in the movie.

The shot of the girls with PeeWee and Gene could have been a movie, or at least a cartoon, on its own. Here's that story: We've all pulled into a gas station with multiple islands of pumps to get gas. Each of us are at a different island with Gene being on the last one on the edge of the lot and I'm at the one next to his so have a clear view of the action. A car with two young (and cute) 18-20ish aged girls in the front seat and about the same aged young man in the back seat come across the lot and turn to curve around the last island where Gene is gassing up. Now Gene's got the PeeWee Herman doll strapped to the top of his trailer, resplendent in his trademark gray plaid suit. The girl driving screams out "Look at that cute little man on that trailer!" (I don't think she's old enough to even know who PeeWee Herman is.) But the young man in the back seat explained it to her. Gene, never one to miss an opportunity to flirt with a cute girl (or two!!) walks over to the car and explains about "The Great Adventure". They all want to take a picture and get out to do so. The girls in the predictable tight jeans and low cut t-shirts pop out and run over to PeeWee, lean over on each side and kiss his cheeks while the boy takes a picture. Gene is standing to the side enjoying the sight - especially the low cut blouses as the girls leaned WAY down. Never known for his shyness - Gene asks to take the "same" picture...and they cheerfully recreate the "cheesecake" pose with no modesty involved :yikes:.
Next the guy we think was a brother to one of the girls, using Gene's camera, takes a picture of Gene between the two girls with his arms around their shoulders. When Gene says "take one more" the next thing I see is the two girls snuggling up to him - one on each side, throwing their arms around him, each putting a hand on their hip and really throwing themselves into a pose that would have made Hugh Hefner proud. I walked over to Gene and told him that he's probably the only guy I know that could use PeeWee Herman to pick up girls! He kept me in laughs the whole time!

Prove it???? Anyone that has ever met you for more than 1/2 a minute KNOWS I didn't make that up. You're just lucky that Virginia knows it's all in good fun and it would scare the baggy yellow rain pants right off of you if anyone ever took you seriously :roflblack:!
