Wallybob Posted January 14, 2005 Share Posted January 14, 2005 My pride and joy was a '76 Ford wagon. Ford bought 'em in 76 to use as fleet taxis. They sold them in '77 when they figured out they used too much gas. Ford had dumped some engines they had not been able to sell into them. The biggest V-8 police interceptor engine made. 460 cubic inch, dual four-barrel carb. The rear end gave out I had gotten one from a junk-yard police cruiser with a faster gear ratio. the thing would suck in air below 40 mph, but if you stomped the gas over 40, the thing would fishtail. I have fond memories from high school of passing a 280Z and a corvette that were drag racing at 2 in the morning in my home town. They both got passed up in the family wagon doing about 130 mph. Regretfully, I was a mo-ron and didn't maintain it. Change the oil? What do you mean? Life is a bit better here. One Mo-ron student has been caught with a knife in my class, and he was upset because "they" will revoke his probation. Awwwwwwwwwwww. Mo-ron. Turns out to all angryolized maggotty types.

Soddball Posted January 14, 2005 Share Posted January 14, 2005 And to think that all the poor, ignorant Europeans could produce in the 1960s was the Porsche 911, the Aston Martin DB5, the Ferrari Daytona and the Jaguar E-Type. The Ford GT40 - now that was a car. Probably IMO one of the few worthwhile constructions the US car industry has ever churned out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_Axe_ Posted January 14, 2005 Share Posted January 14, 2005 You guys kill me. It's the kitsch appeal of the car. Like the Beastie Boys' Sabotage or Hey Ladies videos.

Soddball Posted January 14, 2005 Share Posted January 14, 2005 Today's kitsch is both yesterday's and tomorrow's fashion disasters. AC Cobra - hmm. It always struck me as more about noise than driving, but it does look nice. Front engine and rear wheel drive is never going to do it any favours on handling.

Dave H Posted January 14, 2005 Share Posted January 14, 2005 <font size=6 font color=blue>Good Friday Morning!!</font> How is everyone in Cheery Wafflemania today? Time for some MUSIC!! Here's a little tune entitled "My Culture" by Maxi Jazz and Robbie Williams. Enjoy. I'm the sum total of my ancestors I carry their DNA We are representatives of a long line of people And we carried them around everywhere This long line of people That goes back to the beginning of time And when we meet, they meet other lines of people And we say bring together the lines of me When I look back over the years At the things that brought tears to my eyes Papa said we have to be wise to live long lives Now I recognize what my father said before he dies Vocalize things I've left unsaid Left my spirit unfed for too long I'm coming home to my family Where I can be strong Be who I planned to be Within me, my ancestry Givin' me continuity Would it be remiss to continue in this way Would you rather I quit Come with the other **** Making people's hips sway Lip service I pay, but I'm nervous I pray for all the mothers who get no sleep Like a lifeline, I light lines 'cause my compassion is deep For the people who fashioned me, my soul to keep And this is who I happen to be And if I don't see that I'm strong, then I won't be This is what my Daddy told me I wished he would hold me A little more than he did But he taught me my culture And how to live positive I never wanna shame The blood in my veins and bring pain To my sweet grandfather's face, in his resting place I make haste to learn and not waste Everything my forefathers earned in tears For my culture Fall back again Crawl from the warm water For my culture Water to air You're on your feet again Your feet again Hello Dad, remember me? I'm the man you thought I'd never be I'm the boy who you reduced to tears Dad, I'd been lonely for 27 years Yeah, that's right, my name's Rob I'm the one who landed the pop stars job I'm the one who you told, "Look, don't touch" And the kid who wouldn't amount to much I believe in the senses out of sound I have always been too loud Won't you help me drown it out? I'm what I feel And what I'm feeling is surreal I'm a massive spinnin' wheel, always digging in my heels Now I got the faith Fall back again Crawl from the warm water Water to air You're on your feet again Your feet again Ha, lace up your booty Going back to the roots, continue my interlude Feed freakin' for loot And my spell's been to check what your future brings is now And your forefathers further know how But now, what happened to the world without the hatred Use your head, if the needle is wise, be the thread And weave ancestral wisdom, yours by best Spreading the Lord's word over this broad Earth This is what my Daddy told me I wished he would hold me A little more than he did But he taught me my culture And how to live positive I never wanna shame The blood in my veins and bring pain To my sweet grandfather's face, in his resting place I make haste to learn and not waste Everything my forefathers earned in tears For my culture Fall back again Crawl from the warm water Water to air You're on your feet again Your feet again For my culture Fall back again Crawl from the warm water Water to air You're on your feet again Your feet again For my culture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watson & Crick Posted January 14, 2005 Share Posted January 14, 2005 Game updates: I am "fighting" DaveH and Must be Toejam in the Rune bridge abomination. Occasional some arty falls or a tank gets destroyed, but nobody has attempted to cross the bridge into enemy territory. It looks like it will be a war of attrition. My Kraut forces destroyed Pseudodonkey's troops in a bocage battle. He commanded a company of Brits, a lone sherman firefly, an AT gun and carrier against a Tiger, a gun halftrack, and a half-strength company of infantry. Given what he had, I don't think he had a chance from the start. If he wishes a rematch, he may send it my way. I am frying Willynilly's krauts with flame-carriers in Sockpuppet's Cheery Waffle scenario. It has been cheery for me, but I'm sure that Wally ain't so cheery. And last and certainly least there is Axe. I picked a very nice CMBB scenario from the proving grounds. It would make Mastergoodale misty-eyed. TNT, tanks and grunts Oh my! Ask Axe what happens to Kraut tanks leading the way for infantry into a city. I really don't think he liked the last turn. He won't like the ones after that either. :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J. J. Posted January 14, 2005 Share Posted January 14, 2005 Aiight Pengers.... I've been silently reading these wack Cheery Waffles threads for at least a year now. They offer me a mixture of entertainment and abhorrence that I cannot find in other wargame threads...and I've looked. Believe me. But this current fetish involving posting of song lyrics has got to cease. The only song lyrics I want to see are from Generals Patton and McAurthur and maybe a few ballads from Stalin. But none of Mussolini's operatic hard rock. That crap stinks. So as a Waffles thread stalker, I humbly ask that you guys continue to entertain me with your incessant sarcasm and LAY OFF THE LINER NOTES! Get back to PBEMing each other and tossing TNT-flavord insults. This silent "fanboi" has spoken. I shall disappear once again. And I just have CM:BO. And it's not installed at the moment.

As for spending $10 for CMBB, NO alcohol, drugs or wimin ((not even Mike the hoor) can be had at that price and give one that much pleasure. Pick it up. I'm sure that one of the maggots here would love some fresh meat to feast on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
