My wife likes her eggs sunny-side-up, and I like mine over-easy. I always tell her it's not good to have uncooked egg white on top because of the risk of salmonella poisoning. So when I cook her eggs (I'm usually the one cooking breakfast) I use a small pan and place a little water inside and close the lid. The steam will poach the top side and fully cook the egg white while leaving the yolk creamy like she likes it. She'll say that I in effect cooked her eggs over-easy this way. And I'll say that by defiinition over-easy requires the egg to be flipped over, which is not the case here. And then she'll say that it looks "over easy." And I'll say that looks are not the basis of the definition. So we'll quibble back and forth over this all in good fun at the OCBen breakfast table.

You mean as in flipping houses, you don't keep 'em for long? 
Let's see I like 'em sunny side up, bottoms side up, over hard, and when I'm done they always seem to look scrambled and a little runny. But that's just my girlfriends.
Don't tell my wife.

All,
My topic was on the tail lights not the front lights. Fired eggs VS round headlights are for another time another day. I was commenting on the tail lights only, although I had fun reading the controversial replies even though they were slightly off topic.

Hey!! this is Rennlist. Just because you post a topic does not mean we have to stay on topic. Some of the best threads have very little to do with the original posters topic.

Everyone changed their headlights so now mine appear aftermarket because they are so rare. 996 best bang for the buck in the history of sports cars. Paid 25 K with 55 K miles. Runs perfect and I beat the daylights out of it.
Take that 997 forum!

It cracks me up that some of y'all say that you would never buy/own a 996 b/c of the headlights. WTF are you looking for in a car? Me? It sure isn't headlights.

i actually think the 996Mk2 is the most aggressive looking of the 996/997 Carrera series (although the 997 w/ aerokit is more aggressive looking)
