Steve, Jordan, et al... On my profile page in my high school year book, i wrote a paragraph that was something to the effect of: "i'd like to thank Mr. so-and-so, Mrs. so-and-so..." and on and on... Then i wrote a poem; the first letter of each sentence in the poem (each sentence started on a new line) spelled out the following: F-U-C-K-T-H-E-R-E-S-T-O-F-Y-O-U; the end result being that i thanked a specified list of people in the beginning and said my peace (although surreptitiously) in the last part... Not able to contain my craftiness, i told a friend of mine what i had done... She, in turn, told her friend... A game of telephone ensued and my eventually my teacher found out; upon this realization, she immediately contacted the principal... The year books were already printed and distributed, so they couldn't retract them or reprint new ones, so i was banned from graduation; i found out that i was slated for an award for all the graphic DESign i had done for the year book and i missed that, too... Oh well. As for a quote, i just got off the phone with a client who was complaining that she longer has any energy to complete the day's tasks. Her words: "Youth is wasted on the young." i thought it was cute. Good luck with this whole thing, let us know what you go with and how everything turns out... | ||

Steve, watch what you say. The WP year book team botched my quote last year in 3 places, not only did they mispell a few words, they misquoted my Andretti quote and left out my friends; yet Adam Kaplan used the same quote as me and they had no problem with his. Keep checking up and make sure that you see the quote before they print it. Seeing that you love Vipers soo much, why don't you find some Carroll Shelby quotes- he's the posterchild for horsepower. | ||

Heres the only "car related" famous quote I know of: "car designers are just going to have to come up with an automobile that outlasts the payments" -Erma Bombeck Not really a yearbook quote, but its is espically relavent to a Ferrari. How about something more traditional like "aim for the sky, even if you miss you'll land among the stars" | ||
