That's funny!

I don't think many of us women would be able to utter anything, let alone talk about our passions.....not shared, I'm sure!

Celebs are one thing on screen, but in person they're people just like us..., they eat drink and poop like the rest of us...(even if he is kinda cute on screen!)

Okay, okay, okay! Becky, thanks for the tipoff. Obviously I've extended my trust too far. Thanks for blowing my cover (and revealing that mods can't read everything. ) It's obviously a severe oversight and retro backwardness that my San Antone birth hospital is known only for Carol Burnett being born there. I'm really, really, really peeved and the only way to settle down is go play my bongos! (Livecam here )

Matthew [can't even spell my own last name]

I like it here quite a bit. Where does she want to go to school?


To keep this on topic and for the record, MM went to The University of Texas here in Austin, as did I, and at approxiimately the same time. MM also happens to share the same initials that I have.


Maybe I am him...

Matthew on Jimmy Kimmel

I just finished watching this segment. Jimmy Kimmel commented on how he loves Airstreams and covets his neighbour's. He asked Matthew about his 3 Airstreams. Lots of fun...I'd love to see the one Matthew's working on with a crescent window in the bathroom. Jimmy Kimmel definitely needs to get one.

Arrow Lone Star Looks

The boy does make the rounds.
Ever notice how all us Texans look so similar??
I saw the Kimmel show 5-1-09 by chance. Interesting banter about Airstreams.
Indicated he has one being refurbed at Plattsburgh N.Y.
Most likely with Colin Hyde I suppose. Tho MMc did not mention Colin.
Doubtful MMc does any of his own re-work.
He's certainly a good ambassador for Airstreams. Says he has to have at least 2 "road trips" annually.

Somehow I have this vision that ol'MattyMac won't be found in a Wal Mart lot nor probably within eyeshot of any other Airstreamer or SOB'er when he stays for the night. Most likely staying on private property far away from a public camp.
Anyone have any input otherwise?
As for him being a member here..hard to say. But I will bet he has perused some of the place. Maybe even this thread. A moderator not hardly.

aw, nuts! you've found me out!!! ok, I admit it. I am actually MM, posing as a mile-mannered airforums mod for the last 7 years. you found me.


Ok, seriously: yes, his trailer is being re-done by GSM, and the project is being serialized by Airstream Life magazine. The whole thing was organized by Rich, for the magazine.
guess you don't subscribe, eh?

Nope, never seen a copy. I missed the free online views a few months back. I do look forward to one day seeing some of them though.

I thought MattyMac was into Vintage Airstreams, apparently not so. It seems all of his are late models. Has Colin Hyde ever discussed the MM trailer on the VAP casts?

I think it might have been mentioned, although, I don't recall it being a major topic. I've missed the last couple of VAPs, so I need to catch up.

One of my customers was in Malibu over the long weekend and saw McConaughey's Airstream.

He's towing it with a ProPride 3P hitch!

I didn't know that. I guess it was purchased under another name. Based on my web stats I knew his company had been on my site a few months back but never knew we shipped one to them.
