Anybody got a spare $180,000 laying around?
If so, Christmas is less than a week away, and I would like this, with a giant red bow attached, as a gift.

I promise to give you a ride; heck I'll let you take it for a spin. Once.

Please. Pretty Please. :)

12. That won't even pay your property taxes!
Sure, you can have some fun - but don't expect to exceed 50mph on I-5, with those damn slow PacNW drivers! x-(

(Hey! We're having dinner with our mutual friend in an hour - I will say Hey!) :D

Please pass along my best wishes and hellos!

The key is to drive SLOW, so everyone can bask in my coolness. ;)

18. I was checking the weather
And I am stunned at the severity of your weather right now. It's rare this time of year to get this much snow this early. Out of the 15 years I was there, only 1996 was as bad. The day after Xmas, an ice and snow storm paralyzed the region - no shopping, nothing. But usually, the worst weather, when it hits, is February, and not every year. The mountains and Madrone's part of the state gets it worse.

19. Her part of the state got pounded the other day.
Edited on Sat Dec-20-08 06:55 PM by GOPisEvil
This part of the storm is supposed to be worse than Thursday. Today will bring high winds to knock over trees and power lines. Joy.

Here, it's just softly snowing. (Edit - check that, it's snowing HARD now.)

Yeah, I was told there would be no snow. I want a refund. :P

21. Get... Out! (shoves GOPisEvil)
$180,00 for one of those things?

I used to see those things on the street in the early '70s.

I now officially regret collecting all those Star Wars drinking glasses.

22. Whoa! It's got an 8-track player!
I had one of those in my '67 Mustang, when I was in high school.

23. That was pretty much the budget for "Spock's Brain"...
...a Star Trek episode that ought never to have been made. Had Roddenberry simply banked that money, he could have bought about fifty Shelbys--and saved one for the "Chain of Command" episode of The Next Generation.
