In "Focus"

Dagney · 09-10-2005, 05:00 PM

Well, my Monte Carlo gave up the ghost this week - it was headed that way over the past few months, and I was splitting what extra funds I had between various engine issues and the gas tank.

So, today, I went out with the intention of just seeing what was out there.

And this lil thang followed me home:

She needs a name. I'm leaning towards Stella, but am not married to it just yet.

Hmmm, stealth black Stella.

That's a great looking little car there Dag. Wonder if one will follow me home? The slang mobile is getting ugly as the day is long. Might be time to set er on fire and get a new one.

OH OH Slang TAKE PICS !!!!!
Or donate it to a local gun club for a .50 cal shoot !!!!
Or or enter a demalitons derby !!!!! ( I don't think the race officials would allow you to be armed though )

Or see just how tough a H2 Hummer REALY IS !!!

Or when your contract is up , pull the plates , and the vin number and have fun with the office asshole !!!

Come on dude you can think of some thing better than just burning it !!!

He is capable of thinking of something better ... it's the matter of generating the initiative and energy for the execution where things fall apart.

I can relate to that !!!!!

I need a Tshirt that says "I am disheveled, exhausted, demoralized, drunk and lost."

Gorgeous little Focus, Dag. I really like those cars. Hope she's good to you.

If you're into classic American Musical Theater, may I suggest the name "Bess"?

Does it get blurry if you drive too fast?

Apropos of nothing, "Madame Curie" sprang to mind.

Well, if you want, I can print you up a bumper sticker that says that. I don't think the cops would appreciate it, though.

BTW, I have a Focus Wagon. I looooove the traction control on it. When I hit an icy patch and start to slide, the light goes on and it's as if someone picked my car up and set it on rails.
