[Gold Metal Flake]

[BarenakedLady]

3. ......

geek. GEEEEEEEEEEEK!




:hi:










ok in all fairness to my geekessness I'm in the middle of doing a cross-stitching project.

[Oeditpus Rex]

9. Twistin' tiny little wrenches is geeky?

:shrug:

[BarenakedLady]

33. Awwwww

Don't sell yourself so 'short'. I hear size doesn't really matter. :evilgrin:

:rofl:

(I crack myself up)

[Generic Brad]

4. El Camino! Real?

Is it in good shape? I have always loved the look of those cars.

[Oeditpus Rex]

7. The engine's great, as is the interior

and most of the body. The driver's door was replaced and primered after some fuckpie smacked into me on election day 2004. :grr:

I've got the interior almost completely restored. All that's left is the headliner, but I'm not doing that until I build new speaker enclosures.

[Generic Brad]

12. Drive your car proudly

You have obtained a classic!

[Oeditpus Rex]

21. I've had the big one for...

heebus, 25 years. :wow:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

5. Enjoy your inner witto kidness!

Very cute!

:bounce: :bounce:

[KitchenWitch]

8. Ah yes, the mullet of cars!

[Oeditpus Rex]

10. Oh, you are SO gonna get it!

:spank: :spank: :spank:

[KitchenWitch]

15. I expected nothing less!

:evilgrin:

[Whoa_Nelly]

11. Make it look like your big one?!?!?

:wow: Oooooo, Baby! :party:

[Oeditpus Rex]

16. Contrary to popular belief

the automobile is not an extension of the Jenis.

[Whoa_Nelly]

28. And true to popular belief

Jenis has infinite extension... :P

[Oeditpus Rex]

30. Infinite...?

Gee... that's kinda... :scared:

[Whoa_Nelly]

31. Jenis is infinite!

[Oeditpus Rex]

32. The Jenis is being sucked into a green hole!

But we will fear no evil, for His Rod and His Staff are indeed stalwart.

13. early one morning, after a very late night in Nashville

I was awakened at the house where I was staying by the most awful screeching noise you ever heard. I literally thought that either I was having some sort of aneurism or the world was ending. SCRREEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!! SCREEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!! Then it stopped for a few seconds. I was out in the hall by then, pulling my jeans on and trying to remember where the door was when it started up again. SCRREEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!! SCREEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!! SCREEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!! I staggered out into the morning sunlight and saw the next door neighbor standing on top of his station wagon, a bottle of Jack Daniels between his feet, trying pretty successfully to cut through the top of the car with a chain saw. He stopped, took a pull from the bottle, saw me looking at him and waved. I waved back and asked, "What in the hell are you doing?"

He said, "I'm makin' me a El Camino."

[KitchenWitch]

17. great story!

:rofl:

[leftofthedial]

23. It's now the catch phrase whenever someone is tilting at windmills

I'm makin me a El Camino!

[Oeditpus Rex]

25. I feel a song coming on...

This is my quest — to build me a truck
You might think it stupid; I don't give a fuck
To hack up my ride with a big power tool
To be willing to look like an ass so I'll have somethin' cool

[leftofthedial]

26. We'll be watching someone in the studio trying for the 1000th time for the perfect take

on a track that will undoubtedly be zotzed in the mix, and we'll say . . .

"Don't stop him now. He's makin' a El Camino."



"To be willing to look like an ass so I'll have somethin' cool" --- wouldn't we all? wouldn't we all.

:toast:

[Oeditpus Rex]

27. He was just hoping

to add some measure of grace to the world.

:rofl:

[Oeditpus Rex]

18. LOL!

Well... they are cut-down station wagons...

:rofl:

[leftofthedial]

24. have a blast!

[graywarrior]

14. Get OUT! The actual cars, or just the pics?

[LeftyMom]

19. He's had the El Camino.

It's spiffy. Plus it's easy to tell it's his, because of the stickers.

[Oeditpus Rex]

22. You remember the stickers?

Cool. :hug:

[Oeditpus Rex]

20. Huh?

What about 'em? :shrug:

[SeattleGirl]

29. Woohoo!

I love El Camino's!

[lizziegrace]

34. Yes!!

It's great finding your inner child, isn't it?

Have fun. :)
