I'm fairly new here and just recently made the jump and bought about $150.00 worth of Pinnacle polishes and sovrgn(sp) wax. I have a great deal of acid rain spots on my two month old car that the dealer is going to wet sand out. My girlfriend also took my car to an automatic car wash last week that must have specialized in swirl marks:mad: . Anyway, I've never been really super confident or happy with the wax jobs I've done before so if anyone live in Alabama and would like to make some $$$ let me know;) . If not, can someone go through a wash/polish/wax explanation for dummies with my Pinnacle products in mind?
 
Wow, I lived in St. Louis until I was 12. I'm trying to think how far away Joplin is from StL. Is it by chance south of StL along I-55? I"ll actually be up that way around early November so I may take you up on the offer;) .
 
Joplin is southwest of St. Louis. You just go west on I-44 for about 295 miles. If you go 10 miles past Joplin, you are in Oklahoma. We are 7 miles from Kansas, and about 40 from Arkansas. Kind of a four-corners thing. Remember that old song "Get your kicks on Rte. 66"??? One line goes "Jopin, Missouri. Oklahoma City. Amarillo, Texax looks mighty pretty." I may be wrong - the song was about 290 years before my time.



I was up in Chicago last year for a couple of weeks with a guy from Austria. He was business associate. Anyway, he wanted to come to Joplin sometime but his company never sent him there - we just would have to do our stuff by email and phone and meet up at the trade show and hope it all worked right. We went out one night and it seemed that every single bar, blues club, or restruant played a version of that song. Every time the "Joplin, Missour" part came up, he would start singing the song in an Austrian accent. Imagine Arnold Schwartzeneger singing. You get the idea. I just died laughing each time he did it.

How often are you up in my neck of the woods?
 
Live in NW Indiana, but work on the 64th floor of the Amoco building. Wave and I can probably see you.
 
I was supposed to be there Sept. 12. But some terrorists had another idea for my travel plans. I get to Chicago about once every year or so. I am hanging on to my rescheduled Bears tickets now (sold the Cubs tickets for 75% of what I paid.) They are actually winning. If they continue, I'll be up there Jan. 6 for game 16! Otherwise, who knows. I'm a Bears fan but I'm not crazy! Chicago is freakin' cold in January.

a) Speaking of the Bears, why did they cut Milburn?
b) Living here for 34 years, I know it can get downright frigid up here. The coldest I recall it getting here was during the winter of '83 when it got to -83 with wind chill. But you get used to it. :D
 
It had to be that United Way commercial he made. You know the one - he was dancing with the retirees at the old-folks home.



Seriously though, I really don't know why. Oh well.

JESUS now that is cold. No more references to winter or cold. Please it is in the 60's today and I hate it.

Today, it's in the mid 60's in Chi-Town. I plan to wash and Klasse Maxine while I have the chance. :D
 
Okay, no bites. Let me raise the stakes. I have a Pinnacle Souveran Kit that if someone uses those products to detail my car, I'll give that kit to the person who does it. I live in Alabama but will be in St. Louis, Missouri in mid-Novemeber. Any takers???

I used to live in Florence several years ago while attending UNA. I now live in West TN, about a hour from Florence.
 
I have three family members that attended UNA. We were in Florence during the first week of Oct while on vacation in TN.



Use to live in Pulaski, TN. Now live in Corn Country Illinois. :D
 
Wow, quite a few UNA alums out there. I actually lived in St. Louis until I was 13 than moved here with my Dad. Bart, would you be around the Lawrenceburg area?
 
When we lived in Pulaski, Lawrenceburg was about a 15 min drive west. Use to go to Lawrenceburg a lot and eat at the Golden Panda, not sure if it is still there.



It's a small world. I hope to move back to Pulaski someday, I truly love it down there.
 
Not exactly sure where Pickwick is. How far from I-65 is it? The only time I've ever been up to Pulaski was taking a short cut from Florence to I-65, so I'm not real familiar with the restaurants.
