Well, J. plain, I dunno. Sounds to me as if you need relationship advice
as much as auto advice. Luckily, I'm good at giving relationship advice.
My impression has been that you're a very religious person. So I figure
what you're looking for is a like-minded woman who is going to be
attracted to you because you drive a blue Corvette. So, a shallow,
immature, materialistic, but very religious, woman. Does this sound like
a sensible approach?
If it does sound exactly like what you have in mind, I would suggest that
a *red* Corvette would be more effective.
Finally, if you buy any sort of Corvette, you will have to change your
signature to something like "Putting on airs Phil" or "Pretty fancy
Phil." Hasn't the same ring to it, somehow.
