    By popular demand we are going to do Sunday at Starbucks yet again. I realize in the last episode I threatened to schedule this event at Alcatraz, but they were all booked up. So we will meet at the Starbucks at the corner of 544 and the Tollway at 9:00 AM this Sunday. A little java and jive and oogling the cars. If you have the time when the event is over to come to the F1 watching party please feel free to do so--see other post.

    Just so that there is no CONFUSION it is this coming Sunday, June 25 at the corner of 544 and the Tollway, that is Plano and there is only one Starbucks there.

    This should make Jim M. happy and he should note the north of the boarder lingo!:)

    Trying to throw a curve at an ol' California guy with the 544 designation vs. Park Blvd? A great spot, the scene of the first S-Bucks gathering. The screaming yellow Lambo beast will be there.....with me along for the ride.

    I'll try to be there with the F40. Dave, I tivo'ed a show last night on Discovery HD about Lamborghinis. More specifically, it was about the building of your yellow Murcielago Roadster...Very cool and interesting. Chris Burch advised me to charge you $100 for the taped program if you're interested in seeing it. Cheers, Eddie

    Well David, you know with this group of detailed oriented folks, you must be very specific! Remember there are two East/West streets in that area that start with the same first four letters and whats worse is that they run adjacent to each other. :)

    544 is PARK. It turns into Hebron if you take it far enough West.

    But the better PARKING is at the Starbucks on PARKER. :D

    The same road has different names in each city

    Flower Mound: FM 3040
    Lewisville: Round Grove Rd
    Carrollton: Hebron Pkwy
    Plano: Park Blvd or FM544

    Now, Parker is also FM544 but only to a certain part, then Park Blvd becomes FM544. At one point in time, there was a road that connected these two. But now, construction refined Plano Pkwy several years back & FM544 just got lost in translation.

    Eddie Lee--Your F40 will add that needed touch of class to this affair, as will your presence. We'll continue our "garage talk." Was the Discovery show on the Lambo factory the one that interspersed the Running of the Bulls up the coast? If so, it's fantastic and I already have it, so no payoff. If not, ask any price and its yours!

    Finally, the S-Bucks is on PARK just east of the Tollway.....period!
