Hi Dean and nice to see you still on here after all these years! I still
have the same email address I did back then even. My ISP closed down years
ago, but I pay to keep this one as the ISP who bought them out still offered
it to me if I wanted to stay with them. With all the free email addresses
available, it seems weird to pay, but I like it and want to keep it so
whatever it's worth to a guy.
You mention about remembering those who are gone. I remember a guy who was
one the list for a very short time when he and Dad were killed in a plane
wreck. I remember he posted a question and not many people answered and
they felt bad when they learned of his passing. I mean he was only on for a
week or 2 maybe when it happened. Scott Yuppa was his name and for some
reason I just never forgot him.
When researching it, it's been 20 years ago this year: CARMINE YUPPA, 64,
of Gilbert, Ariz., and his son SCOTT YUPPA, 30, of Chandler, Ariz., both
formerly of Lodi, died March 20 in a plane crash. Carmine Yuppa was a
retired truck driver and an Air Force veteran. Scott Yuppa was a computer
analyst and a graduate of the University of Pittsburgh. Arrangements:
Lakeshore Mortuary, Mesa, Ariz.
I firmly believe in an eventual afterlife and so I have a list that I
maintain where I want to go find these people and meet them - let them know
they are in memory and I thought enough of them over all these years to make
it worth my while to not only remember, but to make good on it and meet them
in person. I mean if someone were to find me in the afterlife and tell me
what I meant to them, I'd be absolutely floored and honored. If they are
that keen on remembering me, as long as they aren't a creeper or nothing
like that, there is a good chance that person is worth being your friend and
you being theirs.
Stay warm and by all means get those heater boxes fixed up. John Lago
modified his VW bus heater boxes so the exhaust goes on the outside and the
heat goes down the center. He said it makes the heater way hotter since it
isn't being cooled by the outside air. He is a splitty guy who wins best
modified at shows with his beat up old bus that features a hole in the floor
to go ice fishing out of it, swivel lawn chairs for front seats, 13 gallons
of bondo on one side when he was forces off the road, wood burning pot-belly
stove for heat, snowmobile rope start for when the battery gets drained (I
rope started it once at Buses Nowhere Near the Arch), and upholstry done in
velcro so he can stick anything anywhere he wants. He has also authored
several books as far as I know.

I'm glad to see he is still around. It's been 18 years since I last saw
him.

I'm still here, on again off again lurker since the late '80s.
My yellow '71 Super Beetle has her engine out (rebuilt heads) and just
needs a bit of welding on the heat exchangers. It gets nice and cold up
here in NY by lake Ontario so I need to get that in a-one condition.
Nice to hear from everybody, and remember those who have gone.

No but I still have that bug. I got married and then had a house built
in
the country. Li'l Red is sitting in my parent's back yard so it's my
goal
to get him fired up and start driving him again this year. I never get
rid
of anything so I still have all my dubs and then some. LOL!
I'm glad this list is still here - quite a few others I was on are no
longer
so maybe we can rekindle this list for a bit more...
