During OPL is it typically an all male event with fart jokes and crotch scratching?
Hey hey...ALWAYS good to see anyone whatsoever involved in pinball in any way whatsoever.

Your wife is very likely to meet some pin-ladies there too!

Other women there to play pinball with, she may take more of a shining to it...get very good...and school a few of the guys...ya never know what can happen!

If there are ladies present and the language gets a little too "paratrooper", I'll conduct the appropriate action by sweetly reminding the offender with the words "Hey ya f*ckin' shit-pump, mind yer f*ckin' language. Can't ya see there are f*ckin' ladies present? ya f*ckin' stoopid Cee-u-next-tuesday"

Ok so busy pinball workshop weekend for me gearing up for the big party.

Fixed T-Rex on JP (hopefully for good this time!), installed a new ramp on Space Station, T2 received a new pinbits h/k ship LED mod, and I made some adjustments on Centaur.

My to-do list still has a number of things on it before I can say with confidence that the pins are dialed in but we're getting there slowly.

Night Rider is a real wildcard right now. After sitting non-working since October 8, 2010 I finally got to a point where I could fire her up. The MPU is booting and the solenoid driver seems to be somewhat working but several problems are apparent such as flippers not working, player 3 & 4 displays are blind and all kinds of lamp problems/issues and I still need to put the chime box together and install.

I was scheduled a business trip on the week of the 20th. I get back late on Friday. So I told my wife no pinball. Family time is more important.

Sorry guys... I willl catch you next time.
Lee,
Thank you for the kind invite as well. Much appreciated my friend.
I had hoped to attend, but must decline due to work and family obligations.
My apologies. I hope to see you guys again soon. Have a great one. Cheers.

I can probably bring a couple of the toppings (diced green onions and diced regular onions) but probably a good idea for someone to bring one of those vegetable platters. I'm up for that, they usually get eaten up good too!

I think Zach means a bottle of Pimms and the latest Harlequin romance novel.

Do not know what Pimms are, but as long as they go with cheese. Also, Tom Clancey is my fave author of romance books.

Late night last night getting some of the final gremlins out of Night Rider. Lamps and flippers are fixed. Now just have to put the chime box back together/install and play test / dial in.

This thing is going to be off the hook. Brand new NOS CC'd playfield and almost everything else is new. Like a NIB pin from 1977!!!!!!!!! :mrgreen:
