I'll do you one better dinonz - you want to keep the collection mint right? And you understand the benefits of cryogenic freezing right?

Well, I can offer something that feels pretty close to cryogenic temperatures for ABSOLUTELY FREE for approximately six months of the year if you ship them to me and I just leave the garage doors open....

I mean, you really can't beat that. But I too will need the keys. For....well does it matter, just give me the keys!

4WD or AWD? I only ask because I suspect the former means you probably aren't offering an exotic, but instead a truck. Ah, who am I kidding, beggars can't be choosers, so I'll take it anyways.

Yeah - in modern use of the terms it should be AWD, but I think that distinction is newer than I am.

Actually - seems that distinction is mostly North America - rest of the world generally uses 4WD to apply to any vehicle where all 4 wheels drive.

Well a "heated conversation" is what will happen because we need to act "civilized" and such.

But by "throwing hands" I meant getting in a fight, because I'm tired of this shit

I just texted the plumbing lead, and she said "the quantities are subject to change because we altered the design". The execs are on my ass to give them an accurate design but I don't know shit about plumbing (along with many other things that go in a home) so I am not at the liberty to make those changes myself.

In the US it's a meaningful distinction because we have so many mechanically-locking 4WD pickups and SUVs here, and the guys who drive them are horrified by the notion of being dumped into the same category as a hair stylist who drives an A4. Those trucks, and that attitude, are much less common in most of the world.

Yes - those "trucks" are pretty much an American thing, especially here in Texas. Like they said in Educating Rita, I think it's BCSD syndrome.

Lol....same here!

As long as he isn't throwing around the "whacked" terminology.....I suspect he's okay!

Send that one to me. I'll mount a snow plow on it and plow my 1/4-mile-long driveway with it. We'll call it a "storage fee," and I wouldn't need any further compensation beyond that.

I'd say no, I had dibs since he offered it to me first, but on further reflection, I actually really want to see you put a plow on a Countach or something similarly low slung.

And then I want to see just how long before the guys near you see it, realize this was a car from a poster they once hung on their walls and you've pretty much committed a sacrilegious act and show up at your house with pitchforks and torches.

Edit: You guys don't have guns down there in the States do you? Pitchforks and torches is still an appropriate term?

I'm well and off for this Lundi Gras. Well, I did have one meeting with my atty at 9 but now I'm chilling at home watching Hunters in the quiet. Will meet E later this evening.

Hey! I only get the Stuff AFTER they're dead. AFTER. I'm not out trolling for Stuff from people who are still alive. You're not even letting them get sick with the Corona Virus. C'mon!!
