Studio Eight has crossed the 40,000 post line.

I don't know who made the 40,000th post

but whoever it was, they can pick up their Cadillac and their publishing contract when they present their lottery ticket.

Well, I hate taking credit where credit is due but just this one time I suppose it won't kill me, so "put her there".

Is it a cadillac el dorado? I'll take no less!

Only one prob...I ate my lottery ticket, so you'll just, once again, have to take my words for it..because really that's all I have, pesty words.

Well, this is indeed a 40,000 post day! woot woot :D

Hold the publishing contract though...I am not yet worthy, plus I'm awfully humble.

mousey,

what color would you like?

Pink? We have a used ElDorado that we got from Mary Kay.

Or you might consider this:

God drives either a yellow or an orange cadillac
and it doesn't run on gas, no
because in the tank are many happy minnows
and each one's last name is perpetual motion

it's a hybrid car

God may drive a Cadillac, but Jesus drove a Honda.

I can't recall the exact book chapter verse, but it says something to the effect that Jesus and his apostles were "in one Accord"

Bugatti Veyron , nice!

Must have a carbon fiber monocoque body,
13 inches or bigger disk brakes on all four
corners ,cross drilled Brembos i guess .

What i would like to ear , is the whine of the
engine when the quad turbos kick in , man!
And for this reason ; Delete radio , you wont
need it. This monster V-16 must rev well over
the 10,000 rpm mark , closse to a F-1 engine
which is at 19,000 rpm.

The interior though , man ! For 1.7 mil you think
they would have placed the tach and the shift
lever on the steering wheel and make it
detachable like F-1 cars , as an anti theft .

Anyway , i'm only at 285 posts including this one.
So i guess i'll ride shotgun with Artguy , and
leave you two gentlemen with your indecently
priced and decadent motorcar. :wink:

I was thinking what it must be like to drive one. I don’t think I could stand to really own one. For one thing where the hell would I park it?

Thinking about Frank Sinatra's song about A Very Good Year, remembering the women that I have loved and the cars I have owned. And the sail boats too. Now I buy a lotto ticket once in a while when my depression is in full swing. The poor man's stock market. Or is it a tax on the Statistically challenged?

Well it's been a while. Got a real kick out of this thread. I loved my 74 Plymonth Duster--real muscle car. Ran the S.O.B. in the ground between Lexington and Louisville, Ky one year. And Truck don't think i need that kind of speed either, sure looks nice though. Full speed ahead warp 3.

Love lots
Deb.

Must be like watching a movie on fast forward.
Holding the steering wheel so tight , your knuckle
turn white , brushing the brake pedal with your
heel and tapping the accelerator with the big toe ,
as you negociate a tight curve. :twisted:

Pool a Drool at my feet. :mrgreen: 8)

P.S.: Park it in a museum...
