Welcome back Z, any pics of the new toy? Also congrats on the MBA, I got mine a year ago. It’s a grind but hopefully worth it.

Hey Z-Man. Much has changed but much remains the same. Nostatic was last seen enjoying life with his lovely wife and precocious son so much that's he's dropped off of PPOT and the Board is the worse for the loss. Periodic reports are that he is doing well.

TAB's is still the Board's Oracle. He doesn't invoke MOTHER quite so often, and his prophecy has taken a definite doom and gloom turn, but he still stops by with some regularity.

The spoon threads remain a frequent topic, often curated by the inimitable Mr. Higgins, with helpful input from the Board's deep bench of resident scholars.

PARF has proven a blessing to the OT Board, although life is much less spicy here on the OT Board with the strict separation of the secular and religious boards. PARF has actually become more fun to visit and is now an easier place to have a reasonable debate or trade observations, after a purge of some of the worst offenders of the informal civility rule.

Much of the original PPOT crew has moved on, but if you watch a while you'll still see posts from Zeke, Superman, Paul and Paul, and you'll find the youngsters with less than a decade of experience on the Board are keeping the Brain Trust functioning up to speed and generally making PPOT a great place to be. You'll find that pool, mustangs, the rise and fall of the stock market and continuing signs of our impending doom remain well documented and debated with fun spirit.

Welcome back!

Hard tops are lighter and stiffer. The Cayman is basically Porsche's first mid-engine hardtop. This configuration is potentially superior to all other platforms which are not mid-engine hardtops, in terms of performance.
