Buddy had a Formula 400 Firebird (very early 70's and quite souped-up)... that thing was scary to ride in. He would pass up people on the shoulder, screamin' down the highway... did 150mph in that mean machine.

UNCLE MILTY,
WAS A BORING WEEK WITHOUT YOU!!
EARY 70'S LOADED ON PEACH SCHNAPPS--DRIVING IN A DEMOLITION DERBY. DESTROYING THE LAST CAR OUT OF 10--I GUESS I JUMPED OUT OF THE CAR LIKE DAISY DUKE--WALKED A COUPLE OF FEET (WAVING AND ENJOYING MY GLORY) THEN PROMPTLY COLLAPSED.
WOKE UP IN THE HOSPITAL WITH MY 2 FOOT TALL TROPHY WATCHING OVER ME. MY FIRST THOUGHTS WERE "TOTO--WE ARE NOT IN KANSAS ANYMORE".
AFTER AN MRI, CAT SCAN AND BLOODWORK. THEY FIGURED OUT I WAS JUST DRUNK. BILL WAS IN THE MAIL WHEN I GOT HOME.
SINCE I--WALKED AROUND NORMALLY--TALKED TO PEOPLE--DROVE IN A DERBY--WON A TROPHY--AND HAVE NO MEMORY OF THAT 5 HOURS-- DOES THAT COUNT AS AN OUT OF BODY EXPERIENCE??????
OUTSTANDING!! I JUST TOOK A QUICK GLANCE AT YOUR SITE: HOPE TO GET MORE TIME SOON TO EXPLORE. YOU ARE NOT ONLY INTELLIGENT- BUT BEAUTIFUL IN MIND, BODY AND SPIRIT. AGAIN, OUTSTANDING.!!!
WE ARE BOTH CORVETTE LOVERS!! I HAVE HAD SEVERAL AND STILL HAVE MY 1ST CONVERTIBLE--1987 WHITE WITH THE TURQUOISE BLUE INTERIOR. BARELY HAS 30,000 MILES. IF WE EVER DO MEET UP AT THE PROVERBIAL BOOTS AND COOTS WE WOULD HAVE MUCH TO TALK ABOUT.
BUT FIRST THINGS 1ST. WHEN CAN I GET MY BELL BACK???

is there a pattern emerging here? i wonder if there are as many armanti suits trading the bigs that have had and continue to have as much fun as the po' penny people. what a great bunch intelligent locos we have here. diana, your peach schnapps is my sloe gin. never again since the early 60's.
purl, wild thing...............i'll bet that stop sign isn't all that effective. cute mill too! wow, 190 would have left me as a grease spot on the vallejo cut off. that benz diesel is going to feel extra slow today after those photos.

Great post purl girl !!! Even if it did get sidelined to something that I like almost as much as trading ! But you're definately right; I've looked at the chart on USNA, and it seems to have hit bottom around .15, and now seems never to have looked back. 'Would've been like a 13 bagger by now. I'll let you all know when I have the ability to spot stocks like this !!! Good luck !!!

my only sloe gin experience was when i was 14 i think, my buddy and i snagged a fifth from his dad's stash and drank it all after school one friday, before dinner. the original tgif party i think. i remember bouncing of a few fences in front of all of the neighbors, pink barf and being stuck in the shower and having total paalysis under the cold water treatment, followed by the cold parent treatment (much worse, at least water eventually freezes).
the next morning my dad said if you are going to drink at least learn to drink good stuff. he poured a couple of ounces of haig and haig pinch and put it in front of me. as i was having trouble even holding down the air i was breathing, the smell of scotch sent me running to the bathroom for a round of pink foam. when i returned the booze was gone and all that remained was being grounded and regular breath and eye checks once i did my time. motown 1960.
i used to live in oregon. near silverton.

You thought maybe I was joking about my freinds only taking that one ride--Life of an adrenalin freak-LOL
A long time ago my aunt had a huskey. It was beutiful animal with one blue and one brown eye.Great family pet, rolled on the floor with the kids, kept the cats out of the flower beds, slept at the foot of the bed most nights. I dunno though-- maybe the two colored eyes were a signal. He would sit next his waterbowl in the backyard for hours still as a statue. The starlings would come by and start bathing. Every Once in awhile a starling would just disappear. I could see him do it. But the poor starlings they would stop what they were doing and look around for about 10 seconds and then go back to business. You see starlings can't count. And until there were only three left they were all doomed. This Huskey also had a bad social habit. He somehow acquired the taste for skunk. We don't know why but every once in ahwhile he would wander off and kill and eat a skunk. He would come home with that doggy grin all pleased with himself even though nobody wanted to get near him for awhile.He knew it, he didn't seem to mind three tomato juice baths and two weeks in the doghouse. Eventually we would let him back in the house and life would go on as if nothing ever happened. And the skunks--well there's always plenty more.
When you're on the street-- You have to be able to pick out the easy meat--with your eyes closed.Then moving in silently, down wind and out of sight you've got to strike when the moment is right without thinking. And after awhile, you can work on points for style.--Roger Waters and David Gilmour

I live in Oregon now. Albany, just south of Salem and Silverton. Nice little town, Silverton. Fifteen minutes from the park and the falls. Nice place to be on a hot, summer afternoon.
