Wow. That's pretty bad. Does the plate on your R8 read "5810"?

Having no idea what the reference was, I Googled "038F porsche". The second result was your Twitter feed. :laugh:

Ohh okay. Makes sense now. I can't talk to you though, you're in timeout

How long is his timeout? General guidelines say 1 minute per year of age ... Will he get out by summer?

Does anyone know just how old he is? If not, we can ask Alexa. Surely she'd know...

I finally remembered to order the E38 style 5 wheel removal tool with today's parts order. The previous 5 orders I've placed in the last 3 months I've forgotten it every time. That's a success.

We spent a week & 1/2 in the US, but are back in Deutschland now. You know what I miss the most about the US? Toilets that don't require the use of a toilet brush after you take a dump.

Ok, maybe I miss some other things more than that, but the toilets here are just... Inspection platforms? Are they really necessary? :roll:

I seem to remember from my time over there that them Germans are entirely too interested in poop. Hence the popularity of scat pron, methinks.

How's Kandern these days? "Chabah" still open? I really liked the old wartime-era passenger railcar parked there. I really regret not getting a pic of that, any possibility of you getting a quick pic or two of that and either posting or PM'ing me? I've a railfan cousin that would love to see that... Thanks!!

I just spent 20 minutes trying to find an old thread I authored and I never did find it. I can't remember the exact name of the thread!

There are three days people I know will regret...

My wife... will regret the day she told me she doesn't care what I do with the cars as long as she can still go to Disney and that we can still save for college and retirement.
My mom... will regret the day she told me I can use her second garage bay.
And this forum... will regret the day I figured out I can bump my threads so everyone can see me talking to myself.

Now I'm fresh, dressed, like a million bucks, and went to see Snoop last night. It was everything I thought it would be and a bag of chips.
Me and my young bride hung right in the center front so I could harass the sound engineers and also be within steps of the beer tent. Yuenglings were 4 bucks so I only spent about $80. Really perfect evening. Really fun show with Dougie Fresh opening. If you're going to google Dougie Fresh right now, you probably shouldn't be reading this, you smell of Gouda, and your parents are ashamed of you. They probaby didn't whip you with Hot Wheels track either, so go ahead. Google away.
The crowd was awesome, and it was one of the biggest smoke outs I've ever seen. Was like trouncing through a damp meadow with all of the different scents tickling the senses. I swear I saw Tigger bouncing on his tail. At one point, a really tall dumbass hipster came and stood right in front of me. Wrecked my vibe so I wrecked his shirt with my bear hands and sent him packing. I was going to grab him by his beard but I was pretty damn irie and didn't want to have to reach up that high.
UBER driver kept asking us to walk deeper and deeper away from the venue for an hour and was promptly disassembled verbally. He misunderstood the whole "driver" part of the deal, and was quickly informed about his future with that company, the possibilities that his parents were never married upon his conception and that having relations with farm animals was the only avenue his career path will travel. Called a friend instead and kept the party going 'til 6 in the mornin'. Now to mow the lawn. :(

Ya know, coming from most I'd just dismiss that as another pretentious crack. Somehow coming from you I see it far less so. :up:

Even if you were nowhere to be seen at St Pattys day in SD. :roll:

There are a lot more WTB ads over in the Cars for Sale sub-forum lately. Definitely a seller's market.
