On an actual topic related note, I think you all know be to be pretty honest, self-depricating, unvain (?). At least as far as you know. I give you my work desk picture or mug shots as examples. However, I will not post a pic of my garage in it's current state. Yes, that is how bad it is!

It's not the flaming that worries me, it's the absolute shame! (T-minus 2 weeks and counting until the dumpster comes, though.)

I saw two of them yesterday.

One of them, incredibly, was LOWERED!!! If only I had my new camera with me at the time. Unbelievable.

The other was in a shopping center. It was VERY shiny and clean, with huge chrome 22" wheels.

I am sure it was never off road in any real sense. Off Road was the shopping malls. I know it for sure, its chrome license plate frame told the truth:

My Shopping Utility Vehicle . Swear to God, it really said that.

Take a picture of your camera for us. It sounds pretty cool.


Your threads are usually great without photos, I look forward to your future illustrations.
