This ad would soon be followed by a headline, "Driver found dead".

Mine would be runs better then the day I bought it new, no mechanical flaws, easy starting, great to look at, easy to drive, rare, priceless, one of a kind. There are many fine cars in the world to drive, but, this is the finest :-)

No WAY would I sell mine...took me to long to break her in ...she'd say the same about me (and after nearly 23 years, we're still working on it)

Of course...considering our courtship of 11 days...I guess 23 years is pretty good

Well I tried the purchase program twice,but that was back in the 12mo or 12,000 miles days,and as soon as I signed the contract things went south,FAST!So I figured I would check out a lease program,but found out those were only legal in Vegas.And I have always thought it was wrong to borrow somebody elses,so now I am looking into one of those foreign models,,,,,

Marriage is just a legal contract. I told my lawyer that we needed to make one with an experation date with an option to renew anually.


Course I have also had my hands on an unenforcable prenuptual. After a friends fire, I was helping him recover things when I found his nupts and they contained the clause that he would support her and she would provide him removed for content

<!with oral sex 3 times a week!>



Yes, it was Notorized.

King,
I just have three questions:

A) Does your spouse belong to FTE?
B) If so, does she know your user name?
C) If you answered yes to the above two questions, do you have place to stay?

Last one I had problems with I left sitting on the side of the road. Ofcourse I took my tag off from it.

I tried donating it for a good cause, but goodwill wouldn't accept it. I knew then that I was in trouble when it was to trashy for goodwill.
