Thanks Bay Area AZ!!! I'm heading down South now.

[neoprufrok]

Hey all...

I know I've been MIA recently. Finishing up my surgery training program got me even busier than usual. Anyways, I've moved to LA now near UCLA as that's where I'll be training in Cardiothoracic Surgery.

I just wanted to thank all the NorCal peeps for the support, friendship, and memories over the years. I'll be back around but not too often with my schedule.

Shout out to Dawn, Dave, Curtis, Ken, Ed, John, Ted, Ben, Mike, Eugene, G, Anthony, Jen, Benny, Chard, Frank, Leonard, all y'all who've been there and helped me in my Audi addiction.

Look me up when you're in Socal!

Rich

ps... yes I still have an Audi A8.

[shehatezme]

Rich good luck with everything! What you are learning now can save many lives in the future!

We definately need an OG meet once you get back to Norcal.

[Kievskiy]

too bad noobs never saw your car, but even thou we never met, i wish you luck with your training, that would def. save alot of lives. Peace

[SeKKeY]

is the eugene you are referring to eugene kim?

[piaadoll]

oh man doc rich! i was just wondering when you were moving to so cal.

alright rich, you said it, i'm going to look you up when i'm so cal! take care!!!!

[Anthony]

Was wondering how you've been and what you're up to. Best of luck in SoCal, and with your studies. I know you're a busy man, but maybe you could bring the A8 out for the Big SoCal GTG in August? I should be down there.

[dbtong]

Hey Rich. Congrats on the opportunity and good luck in SoCal! You still have the place up here as a weekend getaway?

[neoprufrok]

Thanks for all the well wishes guys...

Anthony - I'll try and make it. I just gotta see how my schedule works out.
Dawn - of course you're welcome to stop by, stay, etc.
Dave - yes, we still have our place in San Carlos - chi has to stay up here to finish her MBA program.. but she'll likely be visiting me more than the other way around.

[jenzTTerama]

Awww, the real 'dr. burke' is leaving norcal

best of luck to you doc!

[lawong]

I'm not worried. you'll be back. :)

[andre5]

Congratulations!

Best of luck to you.

[audidood]

good luck rich! audi on..

[dom]

so cal sounds fun. wouldn't mind moving there at all especially now that sf weather got really outta control. tired of breathing in all that damn smoke.

[3ohAvant]

woohoo, a place to crash at in So Cal ; )

although parking near UCLA sucks. do guests get perferred driveway parking ; )

but really. best wishes with everything down there, and when ever you are up here, make sure you let one of us know, and we'll do a hooters meet or something.

[neoprufrok]

lol benny...

unfotunately in my studio apt there is no guest parking.. only street. but where I live is infested with good looking females of the mid 20s persuasion. unfortunately with my hours... i never see them.

TTIWWP(from the web cam mounted on the exterior of your building) : ) oh scew Pics, just give us the "security" cam URL so that we can always make sure none of those hotties are breaking into your pad. ; )

[cdub]

Good luck in Socal Rich! As a Bruin, I know you'll enjoy living on the Westside, just stay clear of Tommy's chili cheeseburgers/fries unless you want to hang out there and troll for bypass candidates


Be sure to swing over to Sawtelle Blvd. for some decent curry at "Hurry Curry of Tokyo" http://www.hurrycurryoftokyo.com/ Unfortunately, for really good chowfun, ya gotta schlep to Chinatown, or better yet, Monterey Park/San Gabriel (kinda like SF Chinatown versus the Clement Ave./19th Ave. in the city). If you're at UCLA medcenter and you wanna hang with the king of OBGYN, my friend, Dr. Michael Lu, is an associate professor there.

Once again, good luck and let me know when you're autocrossing the A8 and I'll be there to videotape that action


Here's to the good ole days...



"Where's Rich?"

[neoprufrok]

Ah those photoshops bring back some serious memories. How is it that Curtis Az's version of Sagats... but for the real people. Always knowing not only the high falutin eats but also where we can get our grub on for cheap.

Benny - I think most of my neighbors would find it very creepy if I took pics... I mean.. i'm not trying to brag or anything but I swear I hit the mecca of bitchy hot chics. I look like a sore thumb in comparison in my scrubs and white coateveryday.

As for autoxing the a8 curtis... I think I'd like to see it in the hands of our better tracksters Leg Breakah Ken and Special Ed and Audiboy and Chard...

I probably will set the record for slow.

[quattro30v]

good luck down in socal.... i'll be in el toro in 3 weeks for CA divisionals, come by.

[Chard]

Wow, I haven't been on NorCal AZ in quite a while, but I just so happened to be bored at work and logged on. I'm glad I saw this post...good luck down in SoCal, Rich...best of luck! You'll fit right in with the high-paying job and baller ride.

ps: your OZs are still doing fine here in Hawaii

[quattro30v]

nice pic chard, i can see the your old pad.... moana pacific in the background hahaha good times

[neoprufrok]

Lookin good chard! Those oz's look so much better on your car man. Thanks for the well wishes everyone!

[Audiboy]

haha. I think we should just cruise around with it and score with the looks, nothing that our current rides can match

Hope all is well Rich! We usually a bit of time down south with family, but that might change with our little one due any day now.

Maybe we should kidnap Kentot for his last freeman party and take him down there

[speedydragon]

whoah these are the members you'd never see posting in regular threads haha. Nice to see the OG'ers still roam around every now and then :D

[audimus ed]

hey rich, good luck down south... see you when ur finished with your program and in a new r8 =) hehe

[spxxx]

aww same goes for me heading down south to santa barbara for school, but not only am i leaving norcal but also buying a wrx...

[quattro30v]

Maybe we should kidnap Kentot for his last freeman party and take him down there

im going there next week, wanna go?

[Saturnine]

Rock on Richard!!

[Mike M.]

Man, I've really been out of AZ for a bit, but great to hear Rich. Congrats on the next step. I just hope in 6 months you're not reporting back from Robertson Blvd. with your A8 then equipped on 22's, murdered out.

Chard, looks good. How come it seems like your Audi keeps moving farther away from the ocean in pics?

And Ken, to quote another, what is up with the "groom shower"? <-----gheyest term evar btw.
