Cool *** Anonymous no more! ***

Kuan:

Your Sig-Quote? I saw it this weekend in a "Spencer's" at our local mall.

It was attributed to Chuck Norris - they were selling t-shirts that showed Chuck in the middle with your SQ surrounding his pic..

Apparently, the kids are getting into Chuck 'cause of the Dew commercials.

Well at least it was a wagon. Impressive video though. I would have really cried if it was an S class

The video prompted me to look at 1995 w124 wagon prices and I am surprised how cheap they are now, for less than $5000 you can easily own a decent one with reasonable mileage.
