Just stopping by to say Hi!

Guerardsgt · 07-17-2002, 01:30 PM

I just wanted to stop by and give a hello to everyone and find out a little bit of information in the process. I'm currently in the United States Army stationed in Germany and a member of Fbodyeurope. I'm getting out in one year with eight years in so you can see it's been a while since I've been back to Mass. I was just wondering if you guys/girls have a main board or if you just go off the main board cz28? Also where are the majority of the gatherings in the New England area. I look forward to meeting all of you and hopefully making it to next years Summer Nationals. Later Ryan

You guys a bringing back some memories? It's been a while since I've seen that drag track. I tried to get up there 3yrs ago but my Z wanted to talk back a little. That's ok though I got my fair share of track time at rockingham before I left. I'm from Quincy but I've also lived in the Worcester area.

I'm stationed at Baumholder Germany. It's about an 1 1/2 hours away from frankfurt. It depends on the traffic because when there is none it's balls to the walls and you can make it in about 45min. I hope you had a chance to go out and look at some of germany it's a really nice place if you ever get some Vacation time.

It was about a year ago that I was there. I got into Frankfurt (flew from Thailand) at about 7 am walked across the street to the hotel (Marriott?) and crashed for a while then took a train about 3 stops to a shopping area, walked around had lunch at the Hard Rock, did some shopping (lots of porn shops

) then headed back to the hotel as I had an early flight back to Boston. Germany is definatly much nicer than Asia, would like to get back someday.

Your right about the porn shops they're all over the place. I remember when I first got here I was watching tv at about 9pm just about every channel was playboy material.
I was stationed in the northern part of south korea for 1yr so I agree with you germany is hands down better than some of those places. I've been quit a few places and I can honestly say Germany is just like the states in many ways. And it should win an international award for the cleanist country I've ever seen. Plus there street rules kick azz (there are none except) Where there are no speed limits there are no cops.

When there is a speed limit there's a camera waiting to take your picture

that tends to suck
