I am going to have to practice saying "I am taking Sampson to the store" or "Sampson and I are running to the store." I like that better...

I like that better... it's a girl thing. my wife named hers 'the bee' with a plate of 'bzzzzzz' since it's a 96 yellow convertible with a black top, and my car is 'penny' since it's a copper 94. i still call it 'my car', much to her chagrin.

Daughter named mine "Sampson" because it sounds so powerful. She is only 12, so I could not tell her my suggestion. My Vette is so loud I would have to just call her "Bitch!" But I see somebody else already mentioned that.

Did the Skipper & Giligan have some type of weird bear, twink relationship going on or what? Put's a whole new twist on that "Little Buddy" comment.

I have > a `99 FXSTC, what you got? You called my bluff..... :^( Mine is just too much of a project at this point. I just got her out of I.C.U. 84' Vette, got her running pretty good (Took a lot), had instrument cluster rebuilt by Delco, Getting a new wind-shield today, Flow Master exhaust mid week, trans overhaul next week, then the big job..... Taking all the paint off, then paint it (two tone charcoal metallic with charcoal silver flames), then new tires, then replace the interior (If I get that totaled Vette with the front crunched for $400, keeping my fingers crossed). When she looks good, then I will consider having the engine rebuilt and hopped up, but at $2,000 it won't be this year.

Mine is simply referred to as "the car" because the other things in the driveway are just "transportation"...

truebluebowtie - 15 Oct 2006 19:52 GMT INstead of complaining, why not follow the thread. Read the post right above and figure it out. You DO know about posting threads and trees right? Better this than wading through lines and lines of previous posts to see a one sentence answer. All programs should cut out the crap that was already posted and cut down on the noise, which you have helped create more of.
Dad - 15 Oct 2006 20:03 GMT You make an assumption that all news readers are the same, not so.
truebluebowtie - 15 Oct 2006 21:54 GMT Agreed, they are not. However, the one he's using can be seen by looking at his posting info which tells me he's using is MS Outlook Express through Road Runner in Houston. Options include a Read tab which can be set to Expand all group messages so you can see what was said and then replied. In MS bulletins, they suggest you set this tic on the box and in upcoming new versions of MS browsers and ng readers, it will be a default so anyone can see threads as they are meant to be seen by default.
Scubabix - 16 Oct 2006 00:31 GMT Yeah, she does, thank goodness
> Whew.......I hope she says that with a smile.
