I want a PT Cruiser with flames painted on the sides...
I don't know what it is around here... people hate Fordses, and love Chevyses... given that choice, I'd pro'ly take the Ford... our 92 Explorer that I traded in fer theDodge was very reliable... got $1500 on the trade in, and that was with 163k miles...
Dodge Cummins Diesel is hard tuh beat....
bwahaaahaaahaaa....
Thanks for the info Talon. This Macross 7 has at least 49 episodes. Is what you were talking about a movie or a series? Do you have a timeline for the Macross/Robotech series?
Heh, I remember I was in 2nd grade when Elvis died, and this girl in class was crying (I figure her Mom must've been an Elvis fan), but I didn't really know who Elvis was so I was like, "Who's Elvis Presley?" :)
This'll be mostly for around town and the occasional haulin' of crap.
More importantly ~IF I get it~ this'll be the first new vehicle I'VE had since I drove the Honda off the lot in 1984. I don't count the van since it's primarly for the Missus to drive.
When we lived up north there were some NASCAR fans in our church and they taught my oldest son one of his first phrases..........
...."Junky Ford!" ;^)
Sheesh! I was headin' for my sophomore year at college.
I do remember bein' unemployed tho. I had spent most of the summer working for a family friend whose company built equipment for coal mining operations. With the coal strike, they just didn't have the demand. So I had three weeks "off" at the end of the summer.
I coulda used more money. But I had a heckuva tan...
He he he!!!
I do!!
I wish I had an old VW...but I understand they are hard to drive in hot climes, due to the way the engine is cooled...I dunno exactly.
Seems like I vaguely remember hearing the news about the coal strike--have this vague image of Jimmy Carter responding inadequately to it--of course given it was Jimmy Carter I could be mixing that up with any number of other events. . .What brought the strike on again?
And this beanbag I got Matthew for his birthday is so comfy I may replace my entire furniture with beanbags!
I gotta do something because I've nearly taken over Matthews!
You've never been to a rural state up here, obviously. NASCAR is HUGH.
Heh...cracks me up that the local sewing shop doubles as a NASCAR merchandise place...NASCAR license plate holders and hats and bumper stickets and stuff.
My memory ain't that good. Specifically, I don't know. Most likely it was contract negotiation time.
Yep, there's a lotta racing here, too--has been since I was a kid, at least.
Heh...you ~DO~ know I said that just to get a reaction...dontcha?
Here for this afternoon.
My area was supposed to get hit about as badly by Charley as Orlando was hit. Really dodged the bullet. Things look very bad in Southwest Florida!
Good to see you LCS. Glad you did okay.
I figgered.
Did you see the photo of the 100+ gallon fish tank, full of water and fish, sitting on top of the remainder of the roof of a totally destroyed house? Strange and sad!!
