oh, and **dctaz** , sorry I screwed up your name by calling you **d_catz_**. :smack: I’m still burning the beer outta my system. Yeah, that’s my excuse. Actually I’m just an idiot who skimmed posts AND new names before posting something myself. ---

Hola. Just piping in to state that for the record, I did indeed purchase a new 16" black & blue leather (elk) flogger yesterday. I found a really great angry rabbit, but alas, leather goods are spendy, so I didn’t buy it. ---

For some reason I thought you meant street cars, like an F-50 or something. :smack: Those are nice tho! And the sound, the smells. Ever seen that NASCAR commercial, a guy in a jogging suit is running down the sidewalk. A car is coming up behind him. At the last minute the jogger swerves right in front of the car. Screech! Jogger shrugs at the driver, and he drives away. The jogger immediately drops to his knees and takes a BIG whiff of the burnt rubber. :grunt: :grunt: :grunt: ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Maureen \* > \*\ ***ROCKY**!!! Missed you! Glad the cars were fun. **6** was kind enough to keep us company in your absence. \*\* WOW! Thanks for the enthusiastic greetings, **Maureen**! BTW, are things taking a positive spin for you and the dear one yet? Yep, **6** is a dedicated student. Keeping the ladies company is one of the first things we’re taught. Seems he’s become quite adept at it. And, **6** , there _were_ a few street cars there on display … F512 and a couple of 360 Spiders. And, up until last year the Ferrari club campaigned a race of privately owned vehicles, mostly F355s. Porsche AG campaigns the Supercup series and provides a field of 996 GT3s. It’s quite entertaining to see the drivers pounding and pushing each other around in $100K+ cars. I haven’t seen that commercial. While I’m not much of a NASCAR fan, I can certainly appreciate the addiction to the sounds and smells. I once put a tankful of racing fuel in my 914 just to make it smell like a race car. Yeah, I’m a geek … deal with it. 😃 ---

**black & blue** actually, **Wyatt** it is color coordinated, as I pretty much only wear clothing that is either black or blue. No yellows, oranges or pinks for me, tho the occasional purple & green have been known to poke in. Pretty much though, everything is black and blue, so yes, color coordination was the point, because otherwise I would just have gotten one that was black, or oxblood or some such. **Mo** Glad to see you had such good luck with the cards. Now, tell me, what is your pick for a low hand, ace - 5 or ace - 4 then 6? **Rocky** Glad you had fun wuth all them cars. Vroom, vroom. **Psalex** Glad you showed your pretty lil head in here. Hope you’ll have time to do that more often. Does anyone else find ironic type amusement that mr bear makes only a few guest star appearances anymore? Spose he’s too busy gobbling up desert or some such? Welcome to Monday boyzngirlz. ---

No, hon…no aces. 6’s or lower. Ace is high. Well…at least, in the card room, it’s high. I’ve heard that some people will allow the ace to be used either way. ---
