Good work guys. For a good guy.

And now I have to move this to Photo Gallery.



soon




pretty soon




a little later





maybe



no, I will, really, just leaving it here a little while because we're all proud of what you guys did, and also for trance for hosting all these meets. I told my wife she could get free ribs, but she didn't want to drive all day to get them so we passed on this meet.

Ethan, congrats on the CAI gift, it was well deserved.

If I stop by the DFW area, I know exactly what gift I'm going to get you.

What an excellent Christmas surprise!

I can't wait for the next time you yell at someone for cursing in a post. They're going to play that vid back to you.

The SL65 is not 215k it's 185k.

Option them out and they cost that much. Hell the SL 55 doesn't even have Bi-Xenons stock! In fact a fully optioned SL 55 is closer to 155k actually.

you are right, but my neighbor did end up paying 215 from what he told me last night.

he ordered it from Beverly Hills. There was a black one and a silver one. He told me last night that Linsday Lohan got the black one...
