Special bene for old farts that aren`t as agile

as you young studs. 8-|

However there was a second email. It expired on

the 2nd of Feb. About the same but had more

fine print--zero bucks for the `09 ZR-1!

(However one meager kilobuck isn`t going to

influence that sale in any way.)

Didn`t bother to click for a PIN and can`t tell

which of our three eligible vehicles generated

which email.

Temp is headed for the high `70s this weekend --

will DVR the playoffs and spend a day on a

mountain tour w/apple pie, a la mode, (Cinnamon

ice cream) at Mom`s in Julian. Gud stuff!

Poor Devil, how do you endure that, we`re going to be blessed with

single digit temperature and 6 to 10" of snow. No apple pie, just a

dish of caramel ice-cream with a shot of Glenlivet to push it through

my heart. Warm fire and watch Dr Zhivazo so I know how good I got it.

Enjoy

Title: Saturn Sing-along
Date: Fri, 25 Sep 2009 00:28:45 +0000
Author: typehype

Here’s the story / of Suzy’s Saturn / which was on the market ready to be sold

All the problems it was having / annoyed it’s owner / most of all, that it was old

It’s a story / of a girl named Angela / who was forced to live in her parents’ home

They were three people / living all together / yet they were all alone

Till the one day when Angie met Miss Suzy / Then she knew the Saturn perfectly met her needs

That she wanted to park that car in her driveway / About that time, the Saturn began to overheat

Title: BMW Lovos Concept is Secretly a Porcupine
Date: Sat, 26 Sep 2009 17:44:44 +0000
Author: dustin61

Although this car design is just a concept, and most likely all it will ever be, it is definitely something interesting to think about. The design was created by Pforzheim University alumni Anne Forschner for BMW. The concept has many different panels all covered in solar photovoltaic cells that can both charge the car and act as wind brakes. A great car in theory, but something tells me most people wouldn’t be too happy if they saw this car flare its panels on the highway.
