Ahh, so I'm not the only one with an S2K bug.

That red S2000 is quite nice, I took a quick peek at it over the weekend. I'm on the hunt for a white AP2 with red/black interior, quite rare.

25 is the new 40.

Still have a 2008 S2000 sales brochure that I take out and pleasure myself with.

Married, you don't have to be married to be bored with your girl. I can't even watch the same porn vid more than twice without getting bored.

Yep, everything happens sooner now. Kids grow up quicker, everything is youth based.
A man of my "middle" age would have been considered prime work force material in the past. Now I'm over the hill, un-trainable and outdated. ChuckTodd, NBC's senior White House correspondent is younger than me. For all I know a student could steal my job. Shit, I might be selling things on eBay just to pay the mortgage next year.

Youth are growing up way too fast. My brother and sister in law just gave their 8 year old daughter a cell phone yesterday.... :sigh:

Chuckle. Free pads? Why when I was in school we used chalk. There was dust. Lots and lots of dust. But we liked it, we did. And we were happy. We played with that dust for hours. Heck I can't think of a better time. Most of my friends are gone now. Well actually I moved away, but you get the idea.

I never post here, but figured I'd let some local people know that I'm selling my 6MT 04 TL. Silver/blk. Really clean. I'm the 2nd owner, originally a Portland car.

Contact me if anyone is interested!

and there is why we aren't taken seriously.

Lets analyze:
1. The absurd yellow helmet that matches the equally absurd yellow bike.
2. A suit that is at least two sizes too large.
3. The rolled up pant leg, as if it will actually stay up to keep out of the chain.
4. The large padded bike seat (I wont go into why he has it, look at his record, you'll learn why)
5. The I don't give a shit smug half smile
6. The local "I Care" coffee cup.

This ladies and gentlemen is exactly how the country views Portland. No dignity, completely incompetent and blissfully unaware of just how stupid we actually are...

Amazing what soup can do... lol Tim Allen Campbells plug for the win! They paid him like 30 mil for that slogan. I'm in the wrong industry, maybe I should be the Campbells mayor. I'll work my way up on FourSquare...

You missed a good sale at Dick's last week. I bought 3 boxes for the pistols and a cheap box of 12ga "Gun Club Target Loads" for a future sunny weekend (April?).

What do you guys think of this Mazda3?
Price is very attractive. Not sure if its a misprint or not, but it was listed for $13997 on a used car magazine like a AutoTrader.

Looks like a fully opted model with 2.3L engine. Leather, heated seats, auto climate control, bose audio. All the car magazine reviews say Mazda3 is poor men's Bimmer 3series But concerned with reliability since Mazda=Ford=Mazda...

For a minute I thought that I had Carrie talked into a Speed3, then we got a 4G TL loaner and the rest is history.

What she doesn't realize it that I'm like a teenage boy with pent-up sexual energy. If I don't get a sports car soon, I'll explode at the dealer and come home with 2009 FORD MUSTANG SHELBY GT500 COBRA.

I see you made it to work on time. I didn't. Odd how just a little precipitation and a lot of hype from a TV Weatherman can totally screw up what would have been an average payday drive to work.

I was stuck behind Michael Scott from Dunder-Mifflin Paper who kept letting everyone cut in front of him and was WAY slow on the stop and go.
