Just a couple of observations. First, I am a Car Guy. I'm always noticing the cars around me in traffic, in the parking lot at work, in my neighborhood. When I see something out of the ordinary, I simply have to check it out.
I drove my 914 to work today, and went out to lunch. Like other Car Guys, I parked in a "safe" spot near the restaurant, and sat where I could keep an eye on it. Some guys walked out of the restaurant and walked right by it without a glance, giving it the same attention they would a Camry. Others, walked by with their heads swiveling as they passed. One guy almost walked into a sign. Thing is, I just don't understand Non-Car Guys. Help me, what's wrong with those guys? |

I'm not a sports fan either... And I live in Indianapolis, we went skiing and snowboarding today at Perfect North slopes near Cincinnati,, We had a blast, only bad thing people kept updating us on the lift about the game even though we could care less, Now we are back home and sore as hell, I finally did a good rail grind in their terrain park, and I was the old man the "kids" ( (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) people under 21)kept giving the old guy advise and I finally got in a couple of good ones, By the way I'm in my middle 30's, but I'm old as dirt to them. but again we had so much fun... I have skied for years, but took the last 2 years off because my knees could not take it anymore, I was a decent skier, so I decided to try snowboarding this year, and it is a whole different animal, I am not so good at it, but it is so much easier on my knees, but it takes its toll on my ass (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) when I fall which is all the time. It was funny in their parking lot there are alot of craptastic cars with ski racks that are worth as much as the car, let alone the gear.
