It's Valentines day and for the first time in ..... EVER, I have
someone to go spend it with. In the spirit of my celebration this entire
message is completely inappropriate and off topic, and you'll note that I've
gone to some lengths to make it that way. Considering how many bad things
have gone on here in the last couple of years (see how many cars I gave away
listed in my Sig) I think I'm entitled to this one moment of happiness.
vheciles <--- dyslexic topic? Didn't mean to poke fun, but really now,
everybody saw it and said nothing. You know, like the whole Iraq rebuilding
it's army thing.

Well this really is a good point. Same point that was made for the
whole Y2K prob "What will we ever do without computers!!!" Hey, they're
only 50 years old really, and cars only 100. We for one had a Delta 88
Wagon back when they were still square (mid 80's) Before that we had a mid
70's Pontiac Parisienne nicknamed "The Tankmaster" for obvious reasons.

As far as I know he's a guy who founded a small town just to the west of
Toronto Canada called Guelph. He's our Jebidiah Springfield if you will.
Guelph (pronounced Gwelf) was named after the royal family before they
changed their name to Windsor.... Or so I've been told, I'm to young to give
a damn.

Who are the Mets?? No no.. wait.. don't answer that. I don't want to

Personally I like to call my God Mr Winky. But I'm deranged and
supporting off topic nonsense as it is to start with.

Do you mean like the American Media does? People in France, South
Africa, Oriental countries, and anywhere else in the world that gets
anything OTHER then US only media coverage back me up on this one.

I once did a powerslide up an on ramp to a highway in my Audi Quattro
and got pulled over halfway up the ramp and the cop let me go because...
well I don't know why, but the guy behind me got a ticket for not wearing
his seatbelt. <--Triumph over my own stupidity.
Going down a merging ramp in two feet of snow the chin spoiler on my
Jetta dug into the fluffy white nuisance and spun me around, then my
momentum took me to the middle lane of a 6 lane highway during rush hour
narrowly missing one 18 wheeler and putting me in the path of a second.
Thank MR. WINKY for FWD and a clear head I did a reverse front end spin out
and doomed the underwear of two truckers and one VW driver, but slid safely
into the emergency lane out of harms way. <---Triumph over life and death.

Well c'mon, a 10 year old with a divining rod can find Oil in Iraq,
until "Sadly Insane" (Iraqi Dictator) bops him on the head and says it's
his. In this case availability breeds contempt.

Never again will I tell someone to go drink their Washer fluid
(Variation of go play in oncoming traffic which, YES, I have already done
... see above). Is coolant still ok?
And now I await your flames.
