Ok, good. She's ok then, but the rest of you have to die now.

Can't you just increase the amount of sterine that you add to the wax mixture to stabilize it?

I wonder if Bruce could give me some lessons.

Coolness factor?

I commit people.

In my spare time I practice witchcraft and read tarot, both of which I did before they became trendy.

I would wax eloquent about my national television appearance, however, I think that given the venue and circumstances, I might actually lose points.

Well, I'm cool because I drive a beat up 4x4 '92 Ford Explorer with a stick shift and I've done Imogene Pass all by myself from Ouray to Telluride going the wrong way over a one way jeep trail to crash the Telluride Blue Grass Festival and didn't get caught. In the old days when Highway 160 over Wolf Creek Pass (elevation 10,640 ft) was a two lane highway with no guard rails, I held the unofficial 4-corners championship for driving the pass at an over-all average of 50 miles an hour under winter conditions for 2 years straight. I've been on the front page of two newspapers and I write my own, called THE MANITOU MULE. I'm not a musician myself, but my boyfriend is a classical guitarist who gets paid very good money for his gigs. And Bill the Cat is my role model. So there!

JeepNGeorge · 04-30-2004, 03:42 AM

So you been up black bear pass? I'm jealous now, we are planning on going out there around the fourth to see if it's as bad as they say. Do you live around the area?

Silent · 04-30-2004, 08:11 AM

My job involves designing and building stuff I can't talk about.
My secruity clearance is such that I must get permission to visit a rather extensive list of countries.

On the down side, I drive a Corolla.

but what car you drive has a lot of influence too.

I can't figure out if my gas/electric car is cool or just geek.

And I want to be the first on my block with a fuel cell car, but only as long as there are several places I can 'gas' up nearby.

What about the 95 Ford Escort... if you bought it yourself?
