.ORG members visit Montreal

[marc@getty.net (Marc Getty)]

Montreal is one hell of a town, thanks *A LOT* to Paulie and company for
showing us around! Having an evil tour guide like Paulie was the key to
our good time....

Paulie's white rocc is so solid and a dream to drive! Flying down the
highways at 120+ MPH in 100 KMH zones sure was fun, definitely similar
to Getaway in Stockholm! 

Here are my 23 pics from this weekend:

> We got downtown and proceeded to drink like fish, Paulie, as

> Once we got back, I dealt with a lil'somethin'somethin while

> 
> I woke up the next morning at about 8am, and discovered that

> wasn't ready to head out till about 10:30am. At that time I 
> discovered that Getty is NOT a morning person since he didn't

> 
> Once he did get up, we went for an extended cruise on the

> we told him to get his ass in gear couse we wanted to do some 
> real drinking!!
> 
> So after Marc and I got back to the hotel,  we had time for a
> mid afternoon nap to ready ourselves for the night since Paul 
> didn't show up till about 6pm, I decided to not opt for some 
> more somethin'somethin' at that time.
> 
> So Paul and Marc and I went off, found a nice little

> By this time Ivan, Pauly, the Doctor, and myself had all

> We left The Hilltop and found a sweet Mini S in the parking

> Now, I had stopped drinking awhile before when Getty made it

> I get out and expect Marc to have me drive his car...not

> after we all protested this decision we finally had to relent

> 
> We got to a main intersection where we were turning left onto

> sunk when Marc decided to just floor the Benz and get to the 
> next intersection about a 1/2 mile down the road. Thankfully 
> there wasn't any traffic and there were no cops.
> 
> As soon as Marc got back to our side, we adjusted the driving
> situation a tad, needless to say the madman was banished to 
> the passenger seat for the rest of the ride.
> 
> We got back top the hotel about 3:30 or so, and kept the
> party going for a few, then crashed and burned.
> 
> When we were finally able to function enough to leave about
> 11:30am, Marc discovered he was still a bit under the weather 
> so I got to drive the Benz all the way back to Albany.
