Burple! Tell your paint guy he’s got it all wrong. He can’t CALL it that no self respecting woman would buy a can of paint (or run behind a color) called ‘burple’. Call it royal eggplant or Godiva Blue or some such.

Just got in a little while ago from the AW TOE RAH MAW (this name cracks me up) I am so happy for the guys here tonight, we took that little 68 mustang coupe and dropped it splat on the floor of the DALLAS O'REILY ANNUAL AUTORAMA. And they had all kinds of nice (crazy car people) telling them, you should have had a tool kit….one wheel pulled off ……mirrors under the car for the suspension…. Display board…. judges handbook……your own set of ropes and stanchions around it…..it all counts for points……(all we had was the car)
There were three awards in its class, “Conservatively Modified Ford 60 to 69. Two “Outstanding in Class” and one ‘Best of Class’. They won an ‘outstanding in class’! Since we did not have the ‘details’ or knowledge (first official show) of how these people set up to show a car. And unlike all car owners we spoke with on the floors,,,ours is not trailored and garaged but a semi-daily driver, I’m very happy for them. This little mustang home project incidentally is partially responsible for driving me into AV, I had to find something to do while they were holed up in the garage.

which I've had up to 130 ….. all such bikes is the insane acceleration. Here they love to gather round the, “worst wrecks you ever saw in your entire life” specialty sport shows. I’ve seen those guys sliding ‘off’ the bike and down the pavement for about a mile before they lose steam. I HOPE your wearing Kevlar Leathers or something! Incidentally I love the idea of a bike, (and I have been found at terminal velocity myself) wind in your hair, long mountain backroads, but I see them buzzing in and out of 5 o’clock in the DFW area, (which is getting as bad as the last I remember downtown LA, - or worse) and I FEAR FOR THEIR LIVES.

i could do it from work but i'd have to sneak a digi cam out for the day. been meaning ta buy one of those I know the feeling, We have access to a dig cam, I have miniscule web space somewhere that comes with my DSL line, and the software’s loaded. Just never done it or figured out how to set up and post. SWB does not make it easy, I called them to ask "doesn’t your DSL come with a handbook" for all these services to walk you through setup…..No they don’t put that out.

Jeepers Outlaw its been one of those weekends, maybe its time for an ‘afterhourslounge’ or possibly that would be far too much encouragement for blowing steam and virtual mental road trips.
