Yes, but I then traded that pair of shoes for a hunting dog and a pint of moonshine.

Bruno said: "the richest guy in Arkansas called me up the other day to see if I wanted to help him take the wheels off his new house."

This can't be true. I know for a fact that last year, he loaned those wheels to the second richest guy in Arkansas. I believe he traded them for a pair of shoes.

Stillets better not be closed down, don't worry me like that Tim. The one down in the Meadowlands should be open, I can't see why it wouldn't be. I would say Bada Bing (Satin Dolls) but you gotta be 21 to get in, or have a fake, which with anyone who wants reading this I'm sure you "don't"...

In pennsylvania the weather has been horrible since 10-01.By far the worse fall in a long time. Very hard when your hobby is cars and you cant play with them. Perhaps a strip bar. Badda Bing maybe.

GT3 is great. It's an excellent substitution for being productive and a great reason to stay up til 4am. I got my 1113hp Pagani Zonda, 1060hp C5R, and 1010hp Skyline (plus a bunch of "slow" 800-900hp cars, but who needs those) to drive around in even if it is cold and raining here in CT.

I really feel bad for you guys in the snow belt. As I was told in an e-mail, at least you guys can sit in your cars and make Vroooom Vroooom noises...

Cheer up, it will be spring there soon.

You do realize I live in California and you live in New York right? It's a long drive and then I would hit the bad weather you guy have then we will all be in the same boat.

:::shiver:::
can someone turn the heat up, please...?


Lemus, you bastard...! Forget the coast, drive 'cross country and pick me up... or at least drive by my house and let me see your car... (please?)

Tom, i caught some of the classic lemans on speedvision... they had some sweet-looking cars on there... i think the really flat, wide one was a Ferrari 240 GT, right...? number 11, i think it was...? rally sweet car... i wouldn't mind getting in that bad girl and touching her in that special DES way...

It's almost 2:30 AM (est) here and i'm gonna go get dinner in a little while... ah, what it means to be free... Andrew, if it weren't so damn wet outside, right now, i'd be driving... rain is my withdrawal period... if i go too long without being able to drive, when i finally CAN drive, it's not pretty... i just got my insurance renewal quote earlier this week... as of the beginning of next year, i'll be paying more in car insurance than i'm paying in rent, per year...!


...And if you guys are THAT bored, go smell Paul's thumb...!

I think I will beat myself up tomorrow and do cambelts and seals on the GT4 as well as check valve clearances. Rain in southern Idaho at 44��

I suggest Kazaa.com for anyone wanting movies/videos/music... you can download just about anything you can think up. This could make anyone un-bored. Plenty of Ferrari clips.

Went to Blockbuster and rented "Scent Of a Woman". I've seen it before, but I just love watching the part where he drives the Ferrari around town. Tried to find "Against All Odds" too but they didn't have it. I love the race scene between the 308 and the P car in that one as well. - That's my excitement for the eve. (Seattle, cold & wet)

Met Jennie after work for dinner and drinks at Bahama Breeze, rented Star Wars II, fell asleep 15 minutes into it, woke up and watched last 15 minutes, wide awake now and working on the new server. I'm sure I'll be up to 2-3am. That's good I guess as I'll sleep in and be rested for the DFW Exotic Car Nights that actually starts at 1pm tomorrow. Jennie leaves for Kansas in the AM and I'm a bachelor for two weeks!

Tom I watched that tonight too, what an awesome show. Too bad that damn Jaguar kept on killing everyone in the early 60s class. Damn British. I was impressed they have a 250GTO in there too.

I'm so bored it's ridiculous. We have finals this week, and I have four. My finals are pretty much the either you know it or you don't deals so for the last three days (no class, study days) I have gotten 30.1% of GT3 done. It's too crappy to go biking. I fall asleep at like 5am and sleep til noon. I think I'm actually going insane. I'm gonna go hit my head on the wall for awhile.

My local is the thriving metropolis of Bondville Vt. We are expecting a lovely rain/ice/snow storm to start after midnight and continue thru Sat. into evening.Matt you must have some funky dreams after eating dinner at 10:00!

Bored? Of course. So let's ponder this question. Has anyone actually sighted Bigfoot while driving their Ferrari? The small town of Fouke, Arkansas has had numerous sightings through the years of Bigfoot or, as it's called down there, the Fouke Monster. If I bought a Ferrari and drove the back roads of Fouke, Arkansas until I actually saw Bigfoot and was able to photograph him, would I hold the title as world's first Ferrari driving, Bigfoot witness?

Don't feel bad. It is going to rain here this weekend. But next week looks so good, I am going to take the boxer out for a nice, long warm weather drive up the coast. Or better yet, the 308 gts with the top off for Lunch in malibu...?

Decisions, Decisions.....

But I'll be asleep by 9:00 while you are having a grand ol time.

Guys, I know what you are trying to say but there are times when you just can't find anything self fulfilling to do. It's Friday night so I don't want to start a project, I've read the paper and I would prefer to go out but it's just not in the cards tonight. It's not like we are sitting here saying "poor me". Don't tell me YOU have never been bored. (I'd make a smily face here if I knew how!)
