"Someone shut that .... up before I go over there and ......... her head."
-Way Of The Gun
Sorry Kev. I guess some of you should rent the movie. The way in which that line appears is quite humorous. Of course, a sense of humor is required (which would probably exclude Turbokev and his wife, who has never heard those words before).
BTW, my dictionary finds Turbokev's post offensive because "rhelm" is not a word. It feels much better now that it has been corrected.

For my quote, I'll keep it in the automotive realm..
Wind-
In my hair-
Shifting and drifting-
Mechanical music-
Adrenalin surge...
Well-weathered leather,
Hot metal and oil,
The scented country air.
Sunlight on chrome,
The blur of the landscape,
Every nerve aware.

"Never invest your money in anything that eats or needs repairing."
--Billy Rose

I know what you're thinking punk, you're thinking did he fire six shots or only five? Well, to tell you the truth I kinda forgot myself in all this excitement. But being this here's the 44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question, Do I feel lucky? Well do ya punk?

One I saw the other day on <a href="http://maddox.xmission.com/" target="_blank">maddox.xmission.com</a>:
"There's always someone as horny as you are ugly."
Fair Warning: Maddox is patently offensive, so if you get your feathers muffed easily, avoid his site. I find his stuff to be brilliant satire, intended or not.

Sauerkraut, HST is something else, eh? I have ordered his next book and am eagerly awaiting its arrival. I also can't wait for "The Rum Diary" to arrive at the theater. Have you read that one?
And now a quote that opened up "Fear and Loathing"-

He really was a helluva guy.
"The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side." HST
"Every now and then when your life gets complicated and the weasels start closing in, the only cure is to load up on heinous chemicals and then drive like a bastard from Hollywood to Las Vegas...with the music at top volume and at least a pint of ether." - Hunter S. Thompson
It was the Law of the Sea, they said. Civilization ends at the waterline. Beyond that, we all enter the food chain, and not always right at the top. HST
And another that I can't remember exactly, but was quoted when he left the courthouse one day.
"As to the charge of rape it is just patently untrue. The guns were all perfectly legal. On the count of Exsplosives. Well if they want to send me to an exsplosives education course or something that's fine by me.
As your attorney, it is my duty to inform you that it is not important that you understand what I'm doing or why you're paying me so much money.
What's important is that you continue to do so.

For those of you who haven't make sure you watch a Movie called "Where the Buffalo Roam." Hunter didn't really like it, but I thought it was hilarous and was my introduction to Hunter.
