DCAWD Meet/White Elephant - Wednesday 12/14/11 - Hard Times

Post by Sabre »

Hello all,
The next meeting of DC All Wheel Drive will be on Wednesday, 12/14/11 at 7:15pm. We will be meeting outside for a little while, then going inside to grab some grub! While we are outside, please stay out of the right of ways. No standing in the road and such, just stay in between or in front of the cars :) If hoods open, only leave them open long enough to do your business.

This is the White Elephant meet. If you would like to participate, bring something, otherwise you can watch the rest of us exchange!
Gift guidelines are as follows:

1) Please wrap your gift.

2) Please bring a gift in the $10-20 range. We don't want anyone to get short-changed.

3) Car themed gifts are HIGHLY encouraged. We're a car club, after all. What better way to ensure that the person tearing into the gift you wrapped will enjoy it? :D

3a) No gag gifts. I doubt anyone wants a package of gummy nipples.... at this gift exchange anyway!

4) This will be a 'white elephant' style gift exchange. Participants will pick a number from a hat and pick in numerical order. The first person will pick a wrapped gift from the pile and open it. The next person can either choose another wrapped gift or steal the first opened gift. You may choose another gift from the pile or steal someone else's gift (you may not steal back the gift that was just stolen from you). Post-game trades are fine.

5) Have fun!

Hard Times is located at:
6362 Springfield Plaza
Springfield, Virginia 22150

Most up to date information found in our forum here.

Let me know if you are coming so that we can try to keep an accurate count.

Note: This is an AWD, we meet no matter what Mother Nature throws at us! Even if you do not have a AWD car, feel free to come!

What color of elephant don't you have?
This is the same night of the office holiday party.
I'll try to knock out early and come on down.
I will be shocked if any car club person shows up better dressed than me.

I'm an equal opportunity elephant guy. Except the pink ones, since I quit drinking those have been scarce.

I've never been good at these things. I always find the crap gifts. But I think I have have somethings decent this year and I need to get rid of it anyway.

I'll be there. Unrelatedly, I discovered that I have an extra box of tampons taking up space in my bathroom.

I believe the folks from Top Gear found those very useful for their vehicles in the Amazon.

This would make a very interesting white elephant gift... you could use them to soak up stuff while working on a car etc. etc.

That would have been a great addition to our gift from last year.

I'm sorry to say this, but that is weak. Inception had just been released around that time. Everyone has seen it now. It is like saying, I'm going to get Independence Day because that was popular like ten years ago.

If you want to get a movie, you should get one that was recently released on DVD that was super popular.

I suspect that Raven's comment was facetious.

LOL- I agree... We have it and we know someone else has it in the group... There are so many things you could get... if you needed help all you had to do was ask someone (pm or something).

On the tampon note- I used a tampon to work on an art project at a track meet in High school... lol. I had forgotten my cotton balls and well you get the drift.
