...missing windows?

I learned to drive in a standard (the Corolla) -- it's much easier to do so with thin shoes/slippers/socks. Other shoes muffled the clutch too much for me. My sister is itching for her permit so she can drive the standard (1.7 more years...).

Oh yeah? Well, my Corolla is gonna beat the stuffing out of your Mer...

Roy posted up some horrendous pictures of what Hello Kitty fans can do to a gun / car etc => I wouldn't wish that on any Benz even a slightly broken one with massage seats...
Here. That is horrendous!

At least you didnt try my trick ~ second hand bobcat for their 10th birthday. I was in the dog house for months over that !! All their friends at school wanted to come & play with it.
Maybe she would be better teaming up with Roy's daughter & comparing notes !!
If Stretch is going to ship you chickens, can you send me the Bobcat?
