Capturing them....

Ahh. So, Oakwood Dr., or Featherstone and Squirrel? Maybe even 26 mile road?
Maybe we need to start off small. I mean, they don't let you fuck the glumpers at Glumpees without a level 4 FuckPass, do they?

Oh, and thank you for not labelling the Mark II as a Lincoln.

I feel like I've seen that Continental before.  The owner's name Barry by any chance?

Why yes it is Barry's, I was at his house last night; the Continental wasn't there (old picture) but I did get to drive his Porsche...

I fucking called it a Lincoln and had to fix it...

Is the car still at Lincoln's design studios or wherever it is?


Funny, all the bashing that VWVortex gets on this site the owner of that car is a member there.  :lol:

It was at the Ford Rotunda for a while, back in the late '90s.

It was at the Lincoln Design Center for "inspiration", probably still is..  I met Barry 10 years ago on the Motor Trend Forum, also members CJ and MustangFan.

Barry invited me to visit so we loaded up the Mini Cooper S and drove to Detroit from the heartland of Kansas. He cooked us fillet and his wife played the piano and it was a good...

The 1955 Porsche Continental Cabriolet 356 will be in the Concours d'Elegance of America at St. John's tomorrow and Barry has provided me two tickets to the event... I am looking forward to it and will take a ton of pictures...

Sounds sweet.  I remember reading his story about it going to the design center.

First time I had met him in person, very interesting guy. He seems a bit elitist online but is far from it in person. Here is a picture of him backing his car out so I could drive it... I was little nervous since it was to be in a Concours in two days...

Hi I'm Cale.  I buy squishy white bread, but I also like potato bread.
God damn potato bread. My mother went through a phase where that was all she would buy when I was in high school, so my sandwiches at lunch always looked like someone had urinated on them. Now she buys white/wheat like a normal person of course.

You're my age.  We're getting old.  Plus, now that you're married, your life expectancy has gone way down, since you're more likely to be poisoned by your wife.

Thanks... I have been looking for another hang-out. I seem to run into the same trollish character from Nebraska at the forums I have joined and I am here seeking asylum.

I love potato bread.  The best is potato buns on hot dogs.  Awesome.

This might not be the best place to seek asylum from trolls. :lol:

Hope you stick around, though.

It's fine bread I'm sure, I just have unresolved childhood hatred towards it.

Maybe it's better to tell people you got hurt lifting an engine block or something.

I ate a knife through the palm of my hand last August.  Relax.  Hand injuries happen.
