If I didn't do what I do now, I'd be a wedding planner. I had a great time planning my wedding.

1! You actually started an OFF TOPIC Topic/Discussion! heheee

I loved your story about the Drive-Ins. It must have been a blast being able to hear the sound through your own car speakers! It's quite a different experience altogether, huh?

We used to go to a Drive-In where they had the one single, crappy sounding speaker on the window... LOL And like a lot of people here, we would sneak in a few people in our car too.

It was always loads of fun but for the life of me, I can't remember what was the last movie I saw in a Drive-In.

Mph, we have a drive-in over by my parents house (a 1:45 min ride for me) that on wed and tue its 15 bucks a car. the one that 20 min north of me on weekends there open is 5 bucks a person for the 3 movie showing or 4 per person on the late comers that only watch 2 movies they have 2 -4 movies going. I will add the reason they close is when its to hot out to sit back with the windows down. they have a lot of people know that bring trucks with some nice systems last time I went we parked the cars and set up lawn chair in front of all the trucks that where backed in place for the movie we wanted to see. It was great we had some extra chairs so we shared and got hucked up with barbeq from one of the other trucks that was grilling, he even got all the meat he was cooking from the drive-in at there cost. I am hoping to bring the soon to be wife and all of are kids (her two and my one) so to a drive-in where they have not gone to one yet. on and they have wifi at some places

Mph, trust me you only want to do it once the second time around is cheaper but o man try to have a small list of people. We are having a small wedding 30 people max I am hoping it is more like 20 because a few people will not show up and then we are having the after wedding party with about 70 plus people. total crazyness

The wedding planner for my oldest cousin's wedding almost messed it up big time. The wedding was about two hours late and that reduced the reception to only about two hours. My middle cousin is engaged to be married next July. I guess things always come in threes. :D

Hi Piyush,
I checked out the link you posted for Flashorn. It looks like a cute little computer... emphasis on little. :0 hehe

When you get older you want to be able to see what you're doing. I think that small of a computer would be better for younger people, or young kids, where they can just put it in their backpack and go! Si? :^0



EDIT ~ I claim this page for MPH going really OFF TOPIC!!!! Good job, MPH!

LOL Hi Adama. :D



Yup, I figured it was about time. LOL


Oh, it was an unreal experience. It felt like I was home watching a movie using my own audio system. :D My car's system is...well......intense and it really made a difference that even movie theaters could not match. We are planning to go at least once a month.

There were a lot of rules at this drive-in...no grilling, no preparation of food, parking lights when leaving and entering, foot off of brake pedal...etc. We both hate cigarette smoke so, for us, that would have been a nice rule to have as well. :D

Since everyone is listening to the same thing, I figured it wouldn't be bad to turn up the bass a bit but the misses didn't want to cause any waves, especially since this was our first time...so we turned up the windows and closed the sunroof/moonroof and let the bass massage us while the movies kept our eyes glued to the screen.

What is the difference between a sunroof and a moonroof anyway? I think a sunroof opens all the way and a moonroof just slides up, or vice versa but doesn't all modern "roofs" do both?

LOL The car is pretty solid so the sound really does not travel outside the car. I got a $300 ticket when I was younger for playing music too loud....you only have to tell me once. LOL

Ok, here's a different one:

I went to see who was online, and it shows the few people who are online, except for me. I've been logged in for a few hours now, yet the system does not see me.

Whenever I've checked before, my name has been there, so I'm wondering why is this happening?
