... apparently I am the ultimate MB fan...

the scowl line on my forhead between my eyebrows...

is in the shape of the MB Star!


I was sitting on the couch, watching cartoons... DBZ... she started badgering me to do SOMETHING with her... anyway, she is looking at me, and exclaims!!!
"you've got a Mercedes symbol on your forhead!"

I went into the bathroom to look, and sure enough, the famillar MB star was staring back at me...

I even scowl in MB colors...

I'll try and snap a pic in some better light.

I recall where they used to show pictures of pets that looked just like their owners...... Maybe it's something like that.

Someone I knew had the Mercedes symbol (w/ wreath) tattooed on his arm. He owned the Citron-colored (light green) W203 coupe w/ 6-speed manual after he sold his 300CD, which he told me was something he regretted so much.

I am anti-tattoo because of what the Bible says, but that's kinda cool but at the same time against Christ's teachings. I still think it's kinda cool though!

I agree with you here. Nobody's gonna put a tatoo on me! Anyway, I've enough scars to last a lifetime - who needs ink?

Anyway, can't wait to see the pic vstech.

now I just need some guy to punch me in the face with a circular ring on his hand, and I'll have a circle to go with the star!

I don't think you really want that.....the punch would probably break your nose which would lead to a lopsided star.

So, John, what decade were you born? You've got the sideburn thing going on.

Sideburns rock! I've had mine since 10th grade. Now if I could get a beard and a 3 pointed star on my forehead I'd be all set..

Well I'm glad you said that John! I was going to warn you of the dangers of a mono-brow in the play ground...


...you've definitely got a Stutgart star thing going on there though. How long did it take to cultivate?
