As a few of you know, I have finally unloaded the Evo. I miss it...a lot. It will be remembered as one of the greatest cars I have ever owned.
In its place sits a white '98 Chevy Silverado 4x4 with 55K miles on it. It is in pristine shape inside and out and I am very happy with it and the lower cost of ownership. No large loan payments, much lower insurance rate. Only thing theoretically more expensive about it is the gas mileage, but since I don't have my foot in it like I did with the Evo, and it doesn't require premium that remains to be seen.  I'll try to get some pics up sometime soon. |

Waaahpish!
 Since I first owned a truck, I've found it impossible to live without one.

I got it wet this morning thank you very much!
I didn't end up with a kid by spankin the wank, though I do enjoy taking that nostalgic trip down memory lane every once in a while.  <--- Gotta remember to where eye protection though.

You used to be cool too. But then you tried to bring back that thing from junior high where you say something like you mean it and then wait a few seconds and exclaim...NOT! That is kinda cool though. I might have to start doing that again...NOT! I'm still hip. (dances macarena) Tukatukatukatukatukatukatukatukatuka. |

The way I see it...
not ever having to explain why you're going to the strip club on a saturday afternoon > having a bathroom that smells like flowers instead of dried piss and.... having the option to eat nothing but braunsweiger and malt liquor for breakfast, lunch, and dinner and relish the subesequent burps, farts, and other gaseous emanations > having another 'side of the family' and all their drama BS to deal with on holidays and emotional occasions -------------------- my cars breath smells like car food

Everyones different and how their life changes as they get older is different. Ya'll know this...Kris I know you miss haveing Natdogg on your beck-n-call when you can't find someone to keep you warm at night, but you have to get over this thing man. He's been taken for a LONG time now. You need to move on to another man-hore.
