 |  WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THE TAS BOAT RACE?
I don't see anybody mentioning the subject, TAS is around the corner and the boat race is as important as the flying competition. What day this will take place and who are the competitors?

| Re: WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THE BOAT RACE?
Snap, great post, great questions. The answers are very simple. It takes place final day (Sunday) right after the winners of the flying thingy are announced. The competitors are the US HEAVY WEIGHT JUMBO TEAM. And Bogan's team. Last year, Bogan, Alan, Mike, the Guzzler, and anyone else they could find with an accent. The US TEAM JUMBO SUPER HEAVY WEIGHT TEAM has a few suprises this year. I wasn't too happy that our Team seemed to be down a bit on weight. Ususally 260 is minimum. Frazer calls us "The kegs with no necks" Prepare to be humbled again Bogan. Alan, Mike and Guzzler. Looking forward to sipping a cold one with you guys!!

Sorry I can't be their to represent the Jumbo super-heavyweight team this year at Tucson Biff. I know you boys will do us proud! No way the international team can compete when we have them beat by 10-fold when it comes to sheer ton-age... just not possible

| It's official, thanks Verne...  | Re: WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THE BOAT RACE?
Yo Biffmeister, It looks like I may be headed that way, and I don't have to report to work until the first of Nov.. That leaves my leaving day from Tucson to Del Rio somewhat open... Do you guys need a heavyweight partner in the boat race???? I'm really thirsty!!!

Remember to check them Kiwis for wet beer backs, they gotta habit of putting half full glasses on their heads.. The New Zealand All Blacks is an awesome rugby team, but the New Zealand Wet Backs boat race team gotta whatchem..
