Posthumous Pinto was a tough little car, got its back broken on a 24 hour drive back from Montana one summer and kept going for another year or two.<BR/><BR/>The Blue Meanie was my Dad's old Ford Fairmont, one of the ugliest, boxiest, least imaginatively designed models to ever roll off the factory floor. We called it The Minimal White Man Mobile as well, since it was the absolute automotive baseline you could drive around in St. Louis and pass as an Upright Citizen.<BR/><BR/>Two great cars, though.<BR/><BR/>And if it goes down to the Super Delegates, I think O has the edge. They don't want to turn off the massive flow of new voters and money coming into the party.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02724666608588750757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26142433.post-26222467971792220822008-04-24T15:29:00.000-04:002008-04-24T15:29:00.000-04:00John,O.K.

Just trying to add to the story. <BR/><BR/>Although, I think we did steal some beer one time at a Christmas party by your house. You distracted them with your x-mas caroling, and I became the look-out.<BR/><BR/>And, to be fair, you did get a car. The radio only worked if you applied the brakes and opened the glove compartment at the same time. After awhile, I even got used to the door opening at random or the windshield wipers always on. You were happy to have wheels.<BR/><BR/>Didn't mean to dis your car.<BR/><BR/>Don't worry about Hillary, I have a feeling that the "super delegates" will save her. Why do we have "Super Delegates"? <BR/>Are we too stupid to elect the proper candidate?<BR/><BR/>I feel like it is a "backdoor" to skoot in someone. Ya know, us stupid people who stand in the long lines for the show, and only to find out that there was back entrance the whole time. <BR/><BR/>Just me thinking out loud<BR/><BR/>Have a great dayLorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07412101960096409601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26142433.post-73079344716365938252008-04-24T12:47:00.000-04:002008-04-24T12:47:00.000-04:00All true.

She had the wheels and an actual job, so I just provided the jokes and a running commentary.<BR/><BR/>And to be fair, besides Christian and Bill and Scott and a few others, none of us were actual "thieves". We did a lot of breaking and entering, sure, but rarely for personal gain. We never thought it through that clearly, or we were just too high in the actual moment to remember the plan.<BR/><BR/>That's my recollection anyway.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02724666608588750757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26142433.post-72250323098382670552008-04-24T11:32:00.000-04:002008-04-24T11:32:00.000-04:00JCWhen blaring Diana Ross or Donna Summers on the ...JC<BR/>When blaring Diana Ross or Donna Summers on the record player..... I was... a young black child. So yes I am still the same girl you dated in High School.<BR/><BR/>I did try to become Baptist, but got kicked out of the "Summer Carnival" for bringing beer and shots. <BR/><BR/>What's the BIG deal. Someone mentioned softball and I was all about it.<BR/><BR/>We Catholics like a good beverage.<BR/><BR/>Now don't get all jealous girls.<BR/><BR/>John's "dates" consisted of me picking him and the tab up. Oh and not to mention his band of thieves, he called friends.<BR/><BR/>But, I will tell you, something funny, weird and stupid usually followed.<BR/><BR/>Have a great day.<BR/><BR/>LoriLorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07412101960096409601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26142433.post-68080629876075425152008-04-23T12:39:00.000-04:002008-04-23T12:39:00.000-04:00John, Susie Q and I will be there and be square th...John, Susie Q and I will be there and be square this evening.

I do love this country.<BR/><BR/>What I do mind is the government throwing money at situations and still not fixing problems. <BR/><BR/>I am tired of my money going for shit that doesn't matter or too lazy to care.<BR/><BR/>How hard is it people? Here are the priorities and when money runs out... that's it.<BR/><BR/>That's how it works in my house.<BR/><BR/>Sorry Billy, you will not be getting a new car when you turn 16.We can't afford it. <BR/><BR/>O.K.

According to polls, if I vote for Hillary, that puts me in the over 50 female demographics. <BR/><BR/>If I vote for Obama, I am younger, black, and Baptist. <BR/><BR/>I want to be in the "tired of paying taxes" Demographic<BR/><BR/>I fixed the Eureka problem!!!
