My father used to tell me, "Jane, just because you have one, doesn't mean you have to be one." That just popped into my mind as I was reading the OP's posts. I have no idea why.

I have a little plastic box attached to the frame of my car with a plain metal key inside that won't start the car.
but it'll open the door. I end up using it about once every year. Maybe 2 years. Note that the car is an ancient minivan and not a 1963 Ferarri GT California |

Genius. My dad and I once had an argument about slimjims. My dad needed to go down to unlock a guy's car for him, and I knew that slimjims at that time were sold at CarQuest. So we went down to CarQuest and he said "Slimjims are illegal, only cops and tow truck drivers can use them." I said "uh-uh, they sell them at CarQuest." Turns out I was right. +1 to don't be a dick. |

Maybe he needed more time to scrub the truck down to get the grease from the dead body(-ies) out of it.

I bought it brand new in sept of 99 for 10k. It has been without a doubt the best damn car i ever had. the only thing i have replaced other than tires, brakes and battery is the clutch cable, struts and the belts. I run her hard from day 1 and shes gets me where i need to go every single time. i love that car and make it a point to take her for a nice drive at least twice a week. Neons are not gay. the posers who drive neons are the gay ones. |

Didn't he start a thread about wearing women's clothes too?  I'm starting to see a pattern here.
