SPOOKY Halloween pictures of your Porsche-
-There's just something about cemeteries that has always fascinated me.
I guess just the notion of "finality" influences me. Time never had a beginning, and it never has an end. The fact that our bodies have a finite pair intrigues me, I guess, and the contradiction between body and physics never seems to evade my attention. I haven't figured out what "death" is, so I'm still trying to work it out. Thus...I went to Evergreen Cemetary in Fort Lauderdale today and took some pictures. I went through them and this is the best- Motley Crue: "Shout at the devil!"  What about some other spooky pictures of Porsches? N! |

I'm driving the 911 to work today and when I get home I'll take some Halloween pics of the car. With the weather rapidly getting colder, I don't know how many more days I'll be driving the car before storing it for the winter.

Isn't that kind of like dressing your dog up in a costume?

Not auto/Porsche related in any way, but a classic:

Trust me for halloween horror, I have you all beat!!!
OH THE HORROR OF HAVING A 70 YEAR OLD LADY IN A FORD TAURUS WAGON HIT YOUR 1982 MINT 911SC HEAD ON, THEN PUSHING YOU BACKWARDS 35 FEET AFTER THE IMPACT WHEN SHE FLOORS THE GAS PEDAL AFTER HER AIRBAGS WENT OFF.............trust me I'd like to put razor blades into her trick or treat candy.  sigh, welcome to my nightmare healing up the last 3 months. Quote per Star Trek "She's dead Jim........." but my wife and I are alive, VERY banged up with pins in my wrist and steel pates'screws in wifes foot, but we're alive and thankfull for it..  nice and perfectly straight front shock tower strut bar, really, it'll all buff out?   Here are some real life blood and gore halloween pictures for you.......  Happy halloween  APPRECIATE YOUR HEALTH, you don't, till you loose function of your wiggling fingers and toes. 9 weeks after the accident we're still in limp mode. sigh.

Jack, you're maturing nicely...no longer the honeymooning kid I met back in '01. Enjoy the parenthood ride. That baby will be 38 before you know it! Ask me how I know...

YUPl another dented hood and leg you're worthy, yup, nasty xrays. aint life a PITA, but grins.....
I'd rather have 6-12 months of pain and wrist/leg re-hab than having babies and kids that will ALSO be a PITA for 18+ years........."dad, can I borrow the porsche and a 6 pack, betty and I are going to the drive-in theater, can I have the keys"...... Parents are such silly people showing off their kids photos of the grub spitting up apple sauce.. awe ain't they cute.

Geez Dave what a mess. Luckily though you were in one of Germany's finest. Anything lesser and I doubt you'd be writing about it. Glad you and your missus came out fairly unscathed. That could've been a whole lot worse.

I think Beau's leg xray is an even tie, or DOES have me beat. Amazing seeing the energy absorbtion these cars take.
Beau, I'd like to see your pedal cluster, I'll go shoot a picture of my mangled mess.....so much for "both feet in", I've still got a limp and sprained ankle 9 weeks after the collision. my floor boards are all buckled up, clutch pedal not moveable, dead man pedal on the left pushed back 5-6 "........my left wrist went THOUGH the fuel gauge on the dash board......
