Craigslist Missed Connection! Woo Hoo!

i finally made it into my local craigslist missed connections! and it was all because of my benz! i think it really is me, i was driving this route back from dropping off my injectors at the bosch shop in binghamton!

http://ithaca.craigslist.org/mis/1378715667.html

now, it is a gay man, which is not my thing, but i don't care, i'm still excited to be turning heads with my car! my wife is a little annoyed though...

i've been home sick and my boss and co-workers called me at home this morning to ask if it was me!

i got a hot wife, and now dudes want me too!

I'm a little annoyed just reading your remarks... Can't imagine how much bragging you are doing to the wife.

I think you've got too much time on your hands. You need to get another hobby...like working on your car or something instead of scouring missed connections looking to inflate the ego.

Alright Adam I'll admit it. I saw it in there too. I didn't want to contact you because of the, "wtf is this??!!" type of response.

Congrats man ahaha. I almost died laughing at the "early 80s blue benz".

If he was real smart he would have looked up the correct color name.

The real question is why were you all looking in the M4M section

A lot of times people don't put in m4m or w4m or what not. They'll leave it blank so I browse at the highest level.

For example,


http://ithaca.craigslist.org/mis/

See?

I think Tyler deleted it. Ask him to dredge it up from his files.
