I don't know why, but when I was a kid I saw a Nash Metropolitan and fell in love with the car. I always wanted to get a red one like this and get a large key made that spins while you are driving.........they were so cute they reminded me of little wind up toys...............O.K. I am weird..... :oops: :oops: :lol: :lol: A few mimes or clowns driving it would be a riot. :lol: :lol:


Fess up, any cars that you guys used to like, or like that would seem a bit weird to drive?

By the way the song "Beep-Beep" was about a nash metro vs a cadilac racing each other.




back in the 80's as a teenager i really liked chevy camaro z28 iroc z's.of course it took me almost twenty years but a few years ago i bought one almost perfect condition for a few grand.


I dated a guy with one of those cars in college. He ended up being a total creep. The car was nice though. :D

I hear your going to see Ryche? You going to see the Cabaret or American Solder tour? 8)


La Cabaret! They do play real Queensryche songs during this show, right? I saw something about drag queens and just wasn't sure. :shock:

I'm hoping they dont add the Cabaret show to my area or I'd have to get past all the BS they add to it and go.

Yes, a "real" setlist. I found one on their forum from a couple months ago.

Hit the black
Desert Dance
I am I
Sacred ground
Promised Land
Disconnected
Lady Jane
Another rainy night
Art of Life
Thin line
Jet city women
The lady wore black
Tribe
Liquid sky
Roads to madness
There was you
Right side of my mind

That set list is missing about 18 songs I really want to hear, LOL! At least I'll hopefully get M&G passes so I can hang out with the acrobats, jugglers and jigglers! :)

They're all about the same width and it doesn't mess up the page... even though, Lynn's and B's are a little longer (giggity!) it's not bothersome because they are contained <---- way over there and not running amok all over the page.


How about this one? It's longer and not as wide.

Ok, I think I figured something out today... At home I use a 22" widescreen set on 1680 x 1050, and they just don't look that big. At work, I run dual standard dimension 17" displays set at a lower resolution, and I can see what the beef is. I'll start paying more attention to the actual pixels rather than eye-ball it from now on.
