What Else Do Ferrari Owners Talk About?

I've been lurking on Ferrari boards lately, and you know, those F-car owners are boring - they've got nothing to talk about, it seems - take a look at this wholly representative thread on FerrariChat.com - tell me you're not grateful we don't have any of that here -

My uncle used to talk about how he wanted the simplest part but it was unavailable, so he would get redirected to the factory ($$$). The factory would say that the part is hand made and Mario is on vacation right now and won't be back for a month...

well boyz I don't think they liked me....they told me I was a "Whack Job" a "Nut Case" a "Legend in my own mind" and they told me never to come back. Twice!

How did they get to know me so quickly? Hey I think they must really be smart to have figured it out so quickly. Does that mean that Ferrari owners are smarter than Porsche owners? You boyz have let me hang around for years now! Or is it that Porsche people are a little nicer and have a little more humility than Ferrari owners do. Maybe and this is nothing but perception on my part that Ferrari owners have their heads so far up their culu's that they can't see the ground in front of them... Christ said, " A rich man has as much chanch of entering the Kingdom of heaven as a camel has of passing through the eye of a needle." Further what does it gain a man to gain the world yet lose his soul?" Boyz I tested them on the issue of tolerance and they have none!

OK tabs I'll bite, what user name did you use? This could be entertianing. I guess if I spent six figures on a museum piece & countless thousands more in mantainence everytime I wanted to show it off, I wouldn't exactly be bubbling over with love & patience for an instigator like yourself.

Haha - I went and looked - you got banned. I got tired of looking for the posts though (the call of the pit babes was too strong).

I wouldn't be too proud of it. Being called a "Legend in one's own mind" is not write home to Mom material.

What user name did you use

Lets not get too excited - the who of who tabs is, is actually old news. It isn't really that relevant IMO.

I don't know Tabs, with all your biblical references, the "man of wealth and taste" title (Stones reference to the dark one himself), and this recent admission of how your pops perceived you, I'm starting to think you ARE the Anti-Christ!
