Haha, that was me mentioning the lime green pinto. Yah, as if I wasn't already a dork in HS, my parents thought it was one cooooool ride for me! Cruisin the streets of Philly, I'll tell ya the ladies were impressed (NOT).
This picture is close, but the "green" in this guy is closer ==>

I know someone who cvommutes from Pleasanton to S. SJ every day. His drive is hell. He consoles himself that it's now better than it was before the bubble burst. What a life.

This is a great place for people to vent their frustration about the idiots out there that have no respect for other peoples' property...I think this post might set a new record for length at the rate it is growing.

My personal motto: "Stupid should hurt"

I did the commute from Manteca to Pleasanton for about a year...then found employment in the valley. The commute is a KILLER!! You lose so much of your life.

Oh boy!! That pinto brings back memories! My parents had one (Can't remember the year)...it was the station wagon in Pinto orange!! Eek that car was sooooooo ugly!

I thought we were all nuts with our parking issues...but not after today. I park my 996 at the end of a row when I am at one of my stores. Today, I'm talking on the phone looking out the window and a lady in a white Bentley pulls up and QUADRUPLE PARKS! That's right folks...4 parking spaces...two for the front of the car and two for the back...one for each corner.

The funny thing is that it took her three attempts to walk away from the car 'cause her alarm would trigger everytime she closed the door.

Her car cost about four times what ours did, it seems only fair

When I parked there were no other cars in this section of the parking lot, so weird
