I was down in GA for a wedding last weekend- Albany. We flew into Atlanta and drove down to Albany, and damn you guys got some nice roads for driving on, straight and flat Too bad we had a Malibu for a rental It was a lot like driving in NH where I live but hotter, flatter and less trees But seriously, nice area down there. And I got to have Waffle House for the first time, which I must say was kickass

Good Lord , man! You LIKED Waffle House? It is only good for soaking up alcohol in your stomach after a late night partying spree! The humungoid amounts of grease in the food coats your stomach lining.....

Homemade biscuits, gravy, grits...etc...or better yet...do what I did and marry a girl from Louisiana....damn good eatin...and if youve ever seen me you know...

Hey guys, I'm getting ready to do a A4/M6 conversion, and since I've never done anything like this before, I'm not sure I know the best way to do it. Any of you experienced wrenchs out there have any advice for a newbie? I'm located in Newnan. It is 20 miles SE. of Atlanta. I am looking at throwing a beer and food party at my house on the day of the install. I have about 2 days to get this done. I need as much help as I can get anyone interested in free beer and quality time with wrench turning.

Rally you in georgia perhaps you would like to be the dude with the loaded up beer belly. I am serious as a heart attack about this stuff. The parts will be here thursday and it will be everything I need. I just need someone to help me get everything in there. You wouldn't be willing to help would you. I do know what im doing just don't have 1 week to do it 6-7 hours sounds good to me.
