Boot camp? Watch out for the "golden" showers Roy! Congrats "O Exalted One". Now you have to play nice and set a good example for the rest of us.

Hummmm.... Golden Showers, huh... Can't wait to see you when you come this way in a few weeks!
Seriously though, I will do the best I can, with the other moderators, to make this site stay just like it is! The best car site there is....

Doesn't seem like we're getting started on the right foot here , the only golden shower I want to think about is a garden hose on my GT .

Congrats Roy. I hear moderator boot camp will include beer knowledge
and gastronomic training. So get prepared!

Congrats! You should have no problem breaking the 1000 post mark now. Very sensible choice with Roy's involvement with the Carolina Opel Club and him being the organizer of the 08 Nationals.
