It's been awhile. who still has a Cougar here?
Just thought I'd stop in say Hi I'm an old schooler to Ohio NECO.
Mark, Andy, Brian, Chris, Jason, Aaron, Slade, Diane, Dan and John...you guys still around?
I talk to Jeff sometimes cause he's on OMR one of my quad forums.
You know I still have my girl:biggrin:
Filling the bottle up and taking her out while the good racing weather is here:evil:

Mike! How's things?
I think most of us are still committed, except for Slade, Diane, and Dan.
Haven't heard from Jason, George or John in AGES though.
But we still got me, Brian, Mark, Aaron, and Chris all the time.
Get some pics of that baby up in here!

I'm still around and I plan to go to cougarfest one last time this year too, but no more cougars for me. Although with gas prices on the raise I might just pick up a I4 cougar to save a few bucks. Paid almost $60 for gas today, and that will only last about a week.

Wow I was just thinking about the same people. Hello to everybody and you say hello to the rest of the family.
I dream about the car constantly. I really miss it and have considered maybe getting another one. I thought I saw mine in Akron because I only caught the wing, but didn't see taillight covers or anything else.

Man,
Crazy cuz I was just home looking at my baby this weekend. She is so deprived, dad washed her to get the dust off, since I was too busy to even cover her last winter :( But it just isnt fair. I gotta get a better paying job and kick my roomie out so I can garage it here and drive it.
I havent had it out since about August, but dad said he charged the battery for me, gotta reset the ZEX and I wanna drive it alot more this summer. However I say this and never do.
I bought a travel trailer last winter so we are redoing the inside lately and havent had time to work on the Cougar.
I always wonder how the northerners are doing. I read the boards daily but still dont post much.
I miss the people from Cleveland area, chime in guys/gals.
Diane how is life?
Mike/Brooke, wats up, how is the youngone?
Jason/Lisa, wats up how is the youngone?
Jeff/Becky, wats up how is the youngone?
Slade, dude are you still around? I miss you dawg. Time to come see the house!! And u mine.
George, you got married dude, where have you been all my life?
Im still working in Cbus, but I have a new life goal, well my 5yr goal that is, by age 30 I will be living in Colorado, hoping to relocated iwth my current company, but if not then Im just packing up and moving. I decided this spring that its just that time. By 30 Im gone.
Love u all!

LOL Cool glad I started something here.
It's been a bit since I've talked to anyone here and I was missing my
NECO buds the other day and Brooke was asking how you were all doing...So
I stopped in. Glad to see RacerX Brian is still around too.
John haven't seen you in a while. Same with Mark Andy etc etc.
Hi Diane! Brooke says HI!
Hey Chris thanks dude. I forgot you moved to Indiana right?
If you plan a meet give some notice I will do my best to make it.
Hey Hicah nice to see you are still around how's it going!
I got a new job up in Wickliffe Ohio finally making
the money I should things are getting better now in the money department:biggrin: Kids are expensive and I'm racing alot now
so gas is pretty rough since alot of my races are about 1-2hrs away.
Here's my little girl Madison:
the pics are a few months old
she's 9 months now and laughing, trying to talk, and standing but not walking
she loves pears and squash!

Mike, she's adorable, it must have been the day for blue eyes (James has very bright blue eyes). For those that don’t know they were born on the same day at the same hospital. I will try to get some pics up soon. He is saying Dada, standing but not walking, rolling and crawling everywhere, and his favorite foods are bananas and sweet potatoes. I will try to get some pictures up soon.
I'm around, I usually check in at least 1 to 2 times a week to see what's going on, I just don't have much to say. I still own the cougar, just took her to E-check a couple weeks ago (for some odd reason they couldn't use the OBD2 and had to put it on the rollers). She will be getting new paint in a month or so and is still in the 30K range for mileage. I think most know, but I ditched the Pacifica not long after James was born and bought an 05’ Dodge Dakota 4X4 Quad Cab with the Magnum V8. I LOVE the V8!
Lisa, James, and I are all doing well. We did have to put our dog down last weekend (she had kidney failure). I am hoping to make it to at least 1 meet this year. TTYL

Cute baby. Baby's scare me though, too young for that stuff yet.

Anyway, How ya been Mike? I haven't seen ya since this summer! You definatly need to get some pics up of your other babies (Mustang and Cougar) here soon! Hope all is well!

Beth - congrats to you.
John - What up yo? Miss you :(
Slade is doing well. I've moved in with my man so he took Paco. He's a better parent than I am. We talk every week and I get dog photos daily. He's working on his house and is involved with a girl. I've known of her for a while so I know that he is super happy.

Nice Aaron! I believe you. yeah I'll get some pics of the stang and cougar pretty soon. The weather is getting nicer. I'm doing pretty good. I just took a 28% pay increase (not counting the annual 6% bonus) with pension, full medical at a low price for Madison and I. With free life insurance over 100K, 401k profit sharing etc. Brooke is doing well too. We're just working playing having a good time with life right now. Sometimes her work is crappy but hey that's work ya know. I just got back from a 2 kegger 8 person camping trip friday to Sunday. WRECKED that's all I can say wrecked:tongue:
John don't worry dude it'll happen you're young and only out of college for a little bit. It took me a few years too get a decent cash flow going too.
Jason, James is looking good man he's workin those clothes:cool:
Madison does baby talk right now that's pretty much it. Although she
says caca but I don't think she knows why or what it means. It's pretty
funny.
Congrats Diane that's good news. Tell Slade and Paco Brooke Madison and I said hi!

Man, we sure have some cute kids here! Adorable!
John: all is well with Josh and the house. Josh is still at Newman. Thanks for asking! Lauren will be FIVE in July, can you believe that? She starts KINDERGARTEN this Fall! We live right up the road from Crestview so it is convenient :)
Here she is from our 2007 Christmas card:
Jason: that poor boy is forever scarred! He needs a Steeler's jersey! :biggrin::tongue:
Diane: glad to hear both you and Slade (and Paco) are all doing well and are happy!

Hey Guys! Haven't been on in a while and thought this morning "what's up with neco these days". The gang is good over here, Erin is getting big and keeps us busy.
Plus her baby brother will be here in September! Jeff's pretty happy about a boy this time and I'm happy to be done being pregnant soon :)
Congrats Beth!! Looks like it is a boy round this time of neco babies :) who's next??

Wow the memories are flowing for me, Cougarfests and all.
I just got done changing a poopy diaper (better wipe this keyboard) and putting Erin down for her morning nap. Things are good, getting the house rearranged for #2 and keeping busy. There will be NO STEELERS or UM jerseys in this house thats for sure!
Thats it, Jeff
PS wow Little B's girl is 5!

05-02-2008, 04:01 PM
WOW! Congrats Becky and Jeff!!!
Any names picked out? We are struggling!! We aren't revealing the name to anyone until he is born anyways but we can't even come up with a name we both just 'love' know what I mean?
Unfortunately, this pregnancy has proved difficult/challenging from the beginning and he will be delivered just as soon as his little lungs are ready (around 37-38 weeks). We will deliver at OSU Medical Center since I am high risk (rare anti-body issue..he is being monitored for anemia).
Needless to say, this is our LAST. I am too old to be birthin' anymore babies! :tongue:
IIRC I think my top choice of name is actually your Erin's middle name, :biggrin:
Bexcat
05-02-2008, 05:28 PM
So far Luke is at the top of the list but I'm not sure I "Love" it. Atleast we both like it though. They will be 22mnths. apart. IIRC your first pregnancy was no walk in the park either correct?
Are last too.
Erin's middle name Q---N
(quarterback for the Browns, Becky's maiden name)

Yes...Quinn :D Josh isn't sold on it though. I love it as a boy or girl name but more for a girl really.
With Lauren I was sick but not nearly as bad as this time.
For much of mid-December through late January, I was very ill. After three trips to the e.r. for dehydration and losing 10lbs from puking so much they hooked me up with a medication pump that continuously administered anti-nausea meds.
Then we find out about the anti-body issue.
Then we find out his umbilical cord is 'not normal' but thankfully he doesn't have any of the malformations connected with this (heart & kidney issues).
Then the heartburn and reflux set in (thank GOD for Prevacid).
Then I had/passed kidney stones (which I swear to God is the worst pain I have ever felt in my life. Labor and delivery were cake compared to that!)
So, yah, I'm DONE!!
I like the name Luke. Very traditional/classic/biblical.
Josh is friends with a Luke so that was out for us.
:bowdown: to you for having yours close together. I'm sure Erin will make a great helper/big sister!

Dang, everyone having babies, getting boy/girlfriends, then theres me. I mean I still have my dog Basco does that count? lol.
Glad to hear everyone is doing so well, eventually Id like to find a nice female for a long termer, but the issue is I dont party or go out anymore.
Yes I know no one from the old days will believe that, but instead of drinking and partying I lift alot of weights and run alot. Hard to believe I just admitted that, but o well.
Therefore Ive had some issues meeting females and the gym is a tuff place, altho there are some nice ones that come there as often as I do, maybe I should just talk to one??
Thought I would pop on and say HELLO OHIO!
I miss my cougar.. and I have thought, espically since gas is going up, of getting a cougar. As long as it doesnt have as many mechanical probs as my old one.
Congrats to Lauren and Becky on your soon to be little ones.
And My oh My have your little ones have grown Jason and Mike!
Nothings really new for me...
graduated college in Jan and now I am going back in about a week for more education/certifications, The boyfriend (the Mini owner) and I went our seperate ways and Im going to be an Auntie in June!! :) (Man, lots of people having kiddos..)

Im still here, just havn't been around in forever. Working a lot, and we've been planning to move to Florida. Although I think we've decided not to now...the economy is too bad in shape.
Cougar is running awesome, just some annoying things with the body I wanna work on. Get some of the dings outta of it (damn people don't know how to open car doors), and it needs a wax job.
Nice to see Fimilar faces though :)
