Wease

Thanks. I started out kinda high and I knew that. But I've dropped it like three times. The price I have it at now is it, I won't go any less. And I told that guy that as well. So hopefully tomorrow, it goes...

I've had the worst selling experience trying to sell my Navigator. I've literally had it for sale on Craigslist, Autotrader, and this site for almost 6 months. I've had two people want to buy it, but they both backed out. I've had calls and e-mails, but no one ever follows through. Drives me nuts. Then today, I get three calls on it and supposedly this guy is coming down from Toledo tomorrow while his kids are in school to buy it. He sounds legit, but we'll see...

Fixed it for ya... :funny:

Or, we could have waited for our wives to come home and gotten some then. Which is what I did...

2004 Cobras were offered in this color. It was like a $5K option, including the paint and seat inserts that changed color as well... :nod:

I just wasn't driving it enough. I get far more use out of my '86 GT, which is what I bought after I sold the Galaxie. Some day I'll have another large convertible...

Here's my old school pic of one of my cars: http://home.columbus.rr.com/wease/Galaxie_-_1.jpg

You got that right...

Yes, it's a fake. Been around for a long time... :nod:

Saving money when you are young is SO important. I know you've all heard it before. If you can put anything in your 401K, do so. At least getting to your employers match is most important. What that money will make for you over the years is amazing when compared to someone who just starts saving in their 30's. I was in the Air Force until I was 25, but for the past 7 years I've been maxing out my 401K every year, along with some other investments on the side. My house is mortgaged for 20 years and I pay on it every two weeks. I'll have it paid off sometime in my 40's. Sooner if my company sells within the next few years. I'm not gloating or giving anyone crap about living paycheck to paycheck. Sometimes, you have to do certain things to make ends meet. I did for sure until I got out of the Air Force. But if you can start saving in some way, do so. 401K is still the best route to go, as it's tax free up to a certain point. Personally, I could afford a much bigger, nicer house, and better, more expensive cars. But I don't. I live under my means so that when I retire, I won't ever have to worry about working a part time job, or lessening my current standard of living. So do what you can to save, as soon as you can. Because when you're 65 or whatever, you'll be so glad you did... :nod:

That's hot. She's got some nice lips... :thumbup:

OK, if anyone's up for playing, we (my neighbor, his kid, and me) cleared off a bunch of this pond today. It's a huge pond, at least 1.5 times the size of a hockey rink. Probably closer to twice the size. We are going to play tomorrow at 12:00 for a while. His kids will be inviting a few of their friends (high school age who play hockey) to play. Here is where we are playing. At the end of Highlands Dr., it dead ends and there is a large pond. If anyone wants to come out and play, be there tomorrow at 12:00. We're also possibly playing next weekend, weather permitting...

There are two ponds near my house, but I'm not sure if they are big enough. I'd have to shovel them off as well. I'm really hoping someone already had a big game planned and had one cleared off, or planned to clear one off. This doesn't change my hate of winter and snow. It just makes it more bearable and reminds me of my childhood...

Come out on the ice and I'll show you what sucks. Ask Daron...

I know we have a few hockey players on the board, so is anyone playing this weekend, now that we finally have some seriously frozen ice out there?

You're welcome.

I have no sympathy for you. Don't drive like a dumbass in a parking lot. Enjoy that insurance hike...

Rob and Don are good guys... :nod:

Thread failure.

I'm from Rochester, NY. We hardly ever closed school. A snow day in Rochester meant there was literally 2 feet of snow on the ground that fell within a 24 hour period and someone held a gun to the superintendent's head. I laugh everytime they close schools here for 3 inches of snow or cold temperatures...

Slow the fuck down...

I agree. Hair is hair. Let them wear it how they want, for the most part. No matter how they wear it now, they will look back in 10+ years and go "What the hell was I thinking?" And just remember that when they get older and if they want a real job, they'll have to cut it. You can't go looking like a fruitcake your whole life...

Find a decent Geo Prizm. Most people don't know that it's a rebadged Toyota Corolla. I've got one and it's the best car (for the money) I've ever bought. 187K miles on it, AT, AC, cruise, paid $700 for it, runs like a champ, and looks good, too... :nod:

I'm with Shawn. The kid doesn't need it. We didn't get our daughter a phone until she started high school sports, as she was going to be after school, needed a ride, just giving us an update on things, and if there was an emergency, etc... :nod:

Get it from my server instead...
