If the cars in the tunnel won't get out of my way I was planning on trying out my new SUV. http://splodetv.com/suv-minigun-surprise

Either that or bring one of these. http://splodetv.com/video/javelin-test-fire

Now now 45acp, you and the rest of us know that firing a missle in the tunnel would cause more harm than good. :rolleyes: Same goes for the mini gun, you would just cause traffic. :p

I have seen that on History channel, its pretty neat. I have seen the armor cars also.

Its exit 290b south Battlefield BLVD and Great Bridge(sign). Its at the intersection by the Battlefield BLVD North, and Volvo Parkway, easy way to remember it is, Once you get off the exit you need over a few lanes to the left, you will see a walmart pass that. You will see a waffle house on the right, and you will be coming up on a light, TURN LEFT(AT LIGHT) WHEN YOU see a Golden Corral, turn in that lot(ON THE RIGHT AFTER YOUR LEFT TURN) there and go behind that lot and theres a Five Guys also. If you need more help let me know, or use google earth and use the screenshot zoom in's.

Not sure if we'll make it. We came back from Pittsburgh Monday evening and now my wife is sick...if she's feeling better, we'll be there...if not, I may try to come myself; but, may need to stay home to take care of her...

45acpForMe....you compare it to Olive Garden? Really? I think it's much better than that...it may not be as good as a "real" Italian restaurant (I grew up in Chicago, you know what I'm talking about!); but, to me comparing Olive Garden to Carrabba's is like comparing Denny's to a 5 star restaurant...LOL!!!

Sorry to hear she got sick. I wish her a quick recovery. :)

Noodles is Noodles! I guess it depends what you order. From what I had it tasted the same but was just more expensive. :(
