I can't blame them since there are so many stores to stock.
I agree. I do like their sugary 1M calorie coffee drinks though but basically because they taste like crappy candy bars. Candy is good.

Love that 968! Great pics.

You and this guy...http://www.nhregister.com/general-ne...-70th-birthday

Big question is...are you a pirate, too?

Yes, things are getting good.

FWIW, I drive a Prius with a 996 body shell and a bird of prey perched on top...because that's the way I roll.

You caught me off guard with that and elicited a good laugh. Thanks

If we can't laugh at what life does to us we are taking it way too seriously.


And well, just cause

Actually, I do. Quick question for you, why express, "THAT color"? I just said Guards Red only because of the blind ******* stating his smart *** reply about the Prius and Cab.

No, I wasn't aware of that. Link please?

Well, I gotta go punch into the Keurig to make a Sumatran Reserve Extra Bold coffee. Then I'll probably check out the newspaper, play my waiting turns on on-line scrabble, and if I feel like it, sample the goods at a bar or two so that I can pay for it all.

Nah, maybe I will just snooze in today.

Thanks for the warm wishes, I do plan to have a great day!

Well, everyone knows that guys that drive Guards Red Porsches and drink designer coffee are just poseurs who are making up for their insecurities and/or certain physical shortcomings. Especially when they attempt to belittle posters on an anonymous forum by implying they have better jobs and presumably have more money than the other members, which of course means they don't, or they wouldn't even bring it up.

Does that answer your question?

Not all of us were smart enough to get into the apparently lucrative arena of Hairdresser Tort so we have to do something with our lives.

Great thread! Cars and coffee have always gone together. Throw in some needling, some raging, memes, ***** and battleships and you've got the quintessential 996 forum thread. Happy Friday!

People laughed when I got it, but I KNEW this phone would come in handy.

Kicks butt on the track, and I can also hide behind it.

It also makes coffee.
