Yes you did, and I thank you for it.

Looks like I am on my own with the all black thing.
Dave, what do you think ?
So, what am I? Chop liver? I think the all black would look kinda neat.


I recently saw a pic of an X350 XJ in Onyx White, what I have, with black wheel and dark tint.......it looked really sleek.

Just ordered a galaxy tab with verizon and the base data package......I'd been meaning to cut back some of my account options I don't use and they equaled the cost of the data package for it.......the tab was on an internet only special for $50.........I can't wait......looks like a neat little device from which I'll get a good bit of use.

If she likes you, next time she runs into you on campus maybe she'll smile back and ask if you've got any stashed in your backpack.
She usually has a coffee mug in the mornings but I think I would be grasping at straws if I thought M&M's would get me anywhere. Seeing as I never bring snacks I imagine it would be pretty transparent to her. Plus I've never run into her around campus other than in class.

Am I supposed to cruise around the campus with no particular destination or something? That only works between classes and on week days.

Naked...see no self-confidence. Most college guys have the beginnings of the beer gut commonly called love handles.

When I was in college my house mate (a swim team competitor) dared me to wear his speedo to the campus outdoor pool. Being the extrovert I am I wore it out in public. it backfired because none of the girls would talk to him in his swim shorts but they would go out of their way to actually bump into and talk to me. He was a swimmer so he was much more fit looking than my beer drinking love handled self. It must have been the speedo because I could also beat him in a race swimming across the olympic size pool.

Thanks ,Joe.
I also like the all black, but the others all make a good point.
If you had not used the word "neat" I would have more confidence.

Still looking for opinions on the wheels.



Thanks Rick Stick and D, so far.

Hey, what about me, I gave my opinion and even posted pictures?
Yeah, how come you don't care about what I think?

Interesting. I might do it on a dare. I wear shorts that fit normally and are at or above the knee and I have some tighter shirts that I wear sometimes. I don't really know if it helps or hurts. I never really notice anyone paying attention to what I wear.

You are right, though. I don't have much self confidence. I have more with clothes on that is for sure.

I've seen much less color coordination on modern Porsches on Mulholland.

That sounds like it would make for great enjoyment for the Stijn thread.

I think I will try to hit up some of the racing outfits at the POC race this weekend and see if I can get a summer job out of it. I would like to take summer classes though so probably won't be able to find one up here with hours I can do at the race. A couple of the World Challenge / ALMS GT3 cup challenge cars have had Cal Poly students/grads on the team.

And of course Craig Watkins, Flying Lizard Chief Engineer, is a Cal Poly grad.
