Winner gets a case of Mountain Dew Throwback (old school Dew with real sugar). Rob is going down 'cause my shell is going up! Tune into the next Vintage Airstream Podcast for a discussion of the ground rules.


Choose your winner, betting is encouraged but not condoned.

Well, a throw down is a challenge. Kind of like to throw down the gauntlet. I'm calling you out. Bobby Flays Throw Down??? Anything ringing a bell? It might be an American thing lost in translation.

Well...that almost sounds like another throw down right there! There were like 3 of you involved the first time, right?

Not everyone listens to the VAP, so not everyone knows what you're talking about (I, however, started listening to the VAP about 1/2 a year ago....lots of good info)

This might give you some historical reference.
Looking forward to it!

The weather here in Minnesota is balmy for Winter. My college boys are home so the gantry will be assembled this week. I can almost taste the Dew, Rob!

While your at it, can you test the old super glue commercial. Put some glue on a hat/head and see if you can hang from your gantry.

Steve Please give Tim and I a shout if you want spectators/advice. Both of us keep stalling so the other will lift first. Maybe taking part in yours will encourage us. If its a week day lift Im still interested, my employer is used to waiting for me to show up.

We enjoyed last Thursday, thanks
