He's 2 and battling cancer, I think.
Cool to see, but under sad circumstances. Hopefully the little guy pulls through!

You'd rather have canary yellow?! What is that all the way on the right? A Ferrari? Can't tell.

Saddle would be my number one choice...
When pricing the 2011 5.0 that was my first pick, Saddle, projectors, track package and kona or sterling silver. Grabber blue is awesome too but I have a feeling I'd get tired of it.



Well, I still want the Mustang a lot and will have to get it out of my system at some point. My main thing is the sound it makes...maybe I'll just make a tape of the sound and listen to it.

I had a conversation with a co-worker of Betty's on Friday night who is a die hard German fan and has done the European delivery on his 135 and most recently his M3. We shared similar perspectives on what a car should be and that convo pushed me in a direction to want a BMW. And if you're gonna BMW, you might as well get M. The idea that I could once again get a convertible and this time be hard top...makes me VERY happy.

Then again, I can't see a good reason to move on from the very reliable TL in the foreseeable future. Especially given my short commute to work.

So that's why the guy insisted on leaving the ski mask on. I thought you and I were closer than that, Jamie. Anyway, I'll be looking out for your van!

Wait, oddly enough, there was an old school dark green ford van parked outside my place for a about 10 days, not too long ago, lol. I really wish I took a picture of it. It belonged to a framing crew that was building a new house across the street from me. they would just throw all of their tools into the van and leave it there over night. After the first couple nights, I was like wtf, why is this thing here all the time? So I walked by to take a look. No one inside, but it did have this green coloured carpeting. It even had blinds for the rear windows, but they weren't drawn closed, lol.

Jamie, you could probably have a different coloured GT3 for every day of the week, for the price of one P1!

Yes, I know. I've already accepted the fact that I'll never be able to spend a million dollars on a car. I could probably have 10 million in the bank and still wouldn't spend that kind of money on a car. I'm a tight wad!

RS, if I had put the time and money that you have put into your TL, I'd never be able to sell it. I'd literally cry watching someone drive away in it!

You and me both. It's hard to make money. It's way to easy to spend it though, lol. Although if I did have 10 million kicking around, I think I would justify buying a GT3

A one year old one, that is. Gotta save my pennies.

Thanks boys...

Jamie, we're fucking with you, we know you meant no harm, man.
I got demoted to being called RS

Adam, she's 8 and a half...I actually had her Mom but gave her to a friend of mine with kids since I was all fucked up over my ex that brought her home, then conveniently left her with me when we broke up. She was a black lab that got knocked up by a huge white Murika bulldog. I've literally been the first scent she smelled in the world, as I pulled her from the mozzarella sack when she was born. I wasn't certain I'd take her, but I'm grateful I did. She's been a best friend...same with Sunny and now, finally...Kali has grown on me tremendously too.

Took them with us to Betty's Vero Beach company party...nobody on the beach, let them go nuts and run around. They fucking loved it!

I love that Mustang too...but Jamie is right, I'd cry over giving up the TL!
Can't get rich AND keep up with the Jones'!

Good Monday morning to everyone!

J, you and Betty look so cute together! Annie looks like a sweetheart! But, Cali (I think that's right) looks like he/she would take someone's arm off if pissed off.

And, just curious, whatever happened to Vlad? Is he being held hostage in Malaysia?

It's not a tummaaaaaa

Thanks a lot Jamie.
Funny enough, Kali is as sweet as Annie. I've not once seen any reaction or aggression from her toward dogs or people. Her main and only goal in life is to get her tongue on any strangers face...which can be annoying. And of course, the more the person doesn't want it, the more intense she gets.

Hey folks, hope y'all had good weekends. Sure looks like it!

So Ryan decided, after a few weeks of "hurrdurr kinda maybe I dunno," to call things off between us. Fuckin' sucks... I think he's just not ready to be in a legit long-term relationship, no matter what he said (date one, we discussed how neither of us was looking for a fling). He's only been out for a few years and I think there's a mix of "I'm not sure what I want" and "what if we have something long-term and I miss out on meeting someone who's more ___" going on.

We both bought Christmas gifts for each other, so we're allegedly getting together to swap those. Not sure when, I told him to pick a day and call me. I'm not really that upset because we had a big discussion a few weeks ago about how things were going... so he didn't catch me off guard on Friday. But I am kinda deflated.

Someone tell me I'm pretty.

Jake, you are definitely one good looking attractive man!!! It's his loss for sure!!! Who wouldn't be satisfied with a great looking guy that drives a BMW?! When one door closes, another one will always open up! With that said, don't you dare start to feel sorry for yourself one bit! Your best days are still ahead of you.
