Last summer I was heading to Maryland to pick up a roll cage for my 944 and had some fun on the capitol beltway. If you have never been on the capitol beltway the only way I can describe it is, free range insanity, the western. Well I was in the left inside lane doing 80 (just going with traffic) and since I detest tailgaters I was keeping a decent distance from the cars in front of me. Well there if you leave a 10 foot hole that means some jack-wipe can stick a 12 foot car in it. After the third time I had been cut off I decided that I was no longer going to slow down for some moron who cuts in front of me then lifts off the gas so as not to hit the car in front of them. Sure enough it wasn't but about 3 minutes later that I was cut off by a beat to hell saturn, he cut in, lifted off the gas and Peggy simply knocked his tail lights out. Plastic flew. I started to pull over to wait for the cops and to take my lumps, but he had other ideas. He hit the far left lane and got outa there. I still giggle about that one. I hate driving in DC (no offense Jim)

Good morning.

A friend of mine's mother is in her late 70s. He was afraid of the other aggressive drivers so he got her a Crown Vic clone of the cops undercover cars. It does not have any illegal markings or lights but it has 8 antennas (that are not hooked to anything) and plain steel wheels, and dark window tinting. He said it is a hoot too drive. No one ever cuts her off or tailgates. At four way stops everyone else comes to a complete stop.

GH85Carrera 02-15-2010 11:28 AM

Finding the perfect rich, lonely old lady with no kids is the tough part.

I love the story of the French lady that was in her 90s and sold her house to a lawyer for cheap with the understanding she could stay there as long as she lived. The lawyer was in his 70s. She lived to be 129 and out-lived the lawyer.

Let me know if you find more of these than you can handle.... I could use a source of income...

svandamme 02-15-2010 11:34 AM

she sold the house cheap, was allowed to stay living there, and was payed 2500 francs a month... his family had to keep paying for it after he died, and in hte end she had been payed 3 times the actual value of the house...
tough old lady, screwed over a lawyer at the age of 90, and kept screwing him till after he died

Sid, you might eventually get laid too !

porsche4life 02-15-2010 11:38 AM

Hey.... I'd get laid if I started dating the skanky girls that my room mate chases.... As it is I prefer girls that I am not ashamed to be seen in public with... they take more work....


Have faith.....

svandamme 02-15-2010 11:42 AM

get the practice on the skanks , so you know what to do with the decent ones, once you get around to getting some work done for em..

Rick V 02-15-2010 03:27 PM

You say skank like it is a bad thing.

Been doing some reading... I need some money.... And a 36mm socket....

I'm getting pissed at the person taking my clothes out of the washer before the spin cycle is done. Now my jeans that I need to travel with tomorrow will be damp. Now I have to babysit the dryer and make sure they don't take my clothes out, as the wash will be done before the dryer.
