This spring I broke my leg and tore my knee up so today I was at St. Croix Orthopaedics in Stillwater and had to have some x-rays taken. The radiology staff seemed terribly nice and then after my appointment I was standing at the counter waiting to see when my surgery would be happening when the guy who took my x-rays walked by. We started chatting a bit and I started to tell him that my having to have a bionic knee put in reminded my that last week I had to have my transmission rebuilt in my Crossfire and this would be sort of the same kind of deal, only it would be my body that would be getting new parts. But… I never got past the word “Crossfire” as his eyes widened and he repeated “Crossfire? I have one too.” Not quite at my sharpest I had to ask, “have what?”. Sure enough he has an ’04 Crossfire Coupe. What are the chances eh?

I invited him to join in with our little group and maybe he can make a get-together in the spring. I do hope he jumps in here.
