I guess I have gotten used to the fact that everyone I know works on thier cars. I have four friends at work who have Porsches they work on them the Vette guys work on thier cars, heck even the couple of Vipre guys fix thier own cars. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) Well tonight I took me girl over to a friends house and knew her dad had a Porsche. Cool I think another P car guy I will get to know. He comes to the door and I ask him about his Porsche and tell him I have a 71 914. He says his is a Porsha ( correcting my yanky pronunciation) C4s. I say cool and tell him I am heading out to Cal. in a couple of weeks to get a 928 for the engine and put it in the14. He has the deer in the headlights look (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) and tells me " I take my car to the dealer when it needs anything" I look at my watch whoops gotta go (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

...indocation of a penis for a probiscus....

what hell does that mean? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chairfall.gif)

Actually, penis for a proboscis would be a dick nose, or a dick mouth (think about the possibilities on that one for a minute (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) )

YES!!!!!!!! A RED LETTER DAY!!

Those who don't enjoy turning a wrench just can't understand those of us who do, and they never will. When I come into the office on a monday with my knuckles all busted up, or a trace of grease under my finger nails that I couldn't scrub out, the boss's reaction is always the same: "painters should paint, mechanics should fix cars, and lawyers should practice law". I've tried explaining it to him a few times over the years, but I finally realized if you have never felt the satisfaction that comes from making a broken car run, the idea that a person might not just have the ability, but truely enjoy wrenching on a car is inconceivable. ("You keep a using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means" )
