A quote from Hunter S. Thompson will cure that depression. "By any accepted standard, I have had more than nine lives. I counted them up once and there were 13 times I almost and maybe should have died"
Boxes, what do you hold?
@UDMan: And this is why You The Man. Awesomeness Did I tell you that Murilee was sporting the Team Trailing Throttle Oversteer t-shirt at Nelson Ledges? I almost hugged her, but, fear and respect prevented such a display.
The bookend hood emblems are bloody fantastic. #truckmonday
Looks like a rescue Pontiac to me. The donor door, less than judicious use of bondo and wheels that have not seen polish for a while point to some years of neglect, possibly abuse, by a previous owner. I do see a lot of potential. I did not see a GTO right away, so I thank you, Murilee, Novaload and others for helping me with that. #1968
And let's not even talk about the Department of Labor overtime pay violations on the Deathstar. Congrats to Ash78. Live long and prosper. Oops. I mean nanoo nanoo. Oh, no, also wrong. Um, may the schwarz be with you? Ooh, so close you can almost feel it. Oh yeah, "We're doomed." #cotd
Hooray for engineerd! It almost seems like your wife was right and you were wrong. Nah, I must be missing something; I'll reread your comment. ;)
@Ralph Wiley's In His Grip: Almost useless, you say? What about this? What other vehicle can adequately convey a mammoth rooster?
That snazzy steering wheel did remind me of something. Not a complete match, but, what do you think? Similar?
That Scroggzilla knows his way around YouTube; he has a knack for finding and sharing race footage and toonage. Thanks to him and thanks to you, Murilee, for passing it on to us.
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. I love thee to the depth and breadth and height My soul can reach when seeing fins and chrome and red that is not turned pink. I love thee freely for the raised white letter tires mounted on unabashadly beautiful wheels. I love thee purely for the dual driver mirrors with no sign of a tow bar. I love thee with intact trim and badging. I may not ever know how the photos with the elevated perspective came to be, but I love thee surely as Carroll Shelby will always act in his own interest. And if I ever happen upon thee in Alameda I can love thee no more than from afar.
I can report that the Trackaddicts, at 77th place, were a very hospitable group. Also, Team Cougar Bait was a lot more show than go in terms of baiting for cougars. ;)
@aSoundofSleep: Your comments are full of unequaled wisdom: Yes. But that has nothing to do with your confusion.
Well done, Tim-Tim! I brought you some brownies. Enjoy!
Congrats, Ash78. Be well.
@Tanshanomi: Do you mean these wastelands?
Roses are red Violets are blue Your comment is smart And so are you. Congrats! Color me jealous.
@pauljones: I wasnt' even going to open this post. Thanks for making it relevant for a motorcycle loving, licensed to drive one, person who happens to be female.
