I lost my dad when I was 19.

All the shit a young man never thinks about is lost at that moment. Simple stuff like what kind of insurance to get or manly bonding stuff like car maintenance, or having him come over and help you work on the plumbing, watching a ball game. He never met his grandchildren.

Right now the boy is 18 about to be 19. He thinks I'm going to be the guy that can climb on a roof , crawl under a car or fix a computer for the next 40 years. He thinks he's going to be 18 for another 15 years too. He just doesn't understand it yet.
I like the stinky pinky but only up to the first knuckle, I do not want a GD thumb up there--I've told her multiple times and I always catch her when she tries to pull a fast one---it's my butthole for Chrissakes I'm gonna know--so cut out the BS.

I'm a big fan of the 240Z

not so much the 280z

My wife's dad had a 240z he restored and left to the youngest daughter in his will. My wife got a stamp collection and his navy uniform

but I'm not bitter.

My brother had a 240z that he inherited from a friend. Cool car at the time, but I bet it would feel like a bucket of bolts compared to any average new car now...

I loaned some money to one of my brothers clients a few years back, she signed over the title of a Porsche and a Supra as collateral. She was adamant that the Supra was worth more than the Porsche and she certainly felt more dearly towards the Supra than the Porsche...

I had a 944 Turbo (951) and a Twin Turbo 300zx in a period of about 2 years

there was no comparison, the 300zx would eat its lunch. It also had 4 wheel steering.

Now my wifes Acura has as much horsepower as that 300zx

probably but I'm at an age where I would probably appreciate it more - with weber carburetors and what not.

Yeah I am paying for a monthly service even with her living at my sister's house and they used it the day she fell. Last year at Xmas she didn't have one and I had begged her to get one.
Sure, I've been called a xenophobe, but the truth is, I'm not. I honestly just feel that America is the best country and the other countries aren't as good. That used to be called patriotism.

It works. My mom was stubborn as well. If she fell she just waited till I stopped in which was daily. Broke a bunch of stuff. Spent more time in a rehab facility than at home after awhile.

The game was handed to UK by the refs in the double bonus with ten minutes left UNC does get the 1-1 until 3 minutes left

I pray to play Kentucky in March with Pinson Monk might go for 15 with a good defender on him, WIlliams is just to small

Roy again not using timeouts to set up play twice up 2 and down 1 he will never ever get it

Bam missed dunk should have been basket interference

Berry first foul on Fox should have been a travel

Fox used his off of to make lay up over Bradly and they call Bradley for the foul,

I guess the refs had to call in that way or UNC would have won by 15,, so at least we got a good exciting game but UNC is clearly the better team not worried at all to face the Kentucky team at all
