Is imitation the most sincere form?
 
Has anyone else been getting "Tall Car Tales" from Alex Manos at BHCC?
The first one was poorly edited. The latest one has a link to the (sic) "Indie 500".
Will the "Indie 500" have subtitles in French and a soundtrack by Edie Brickell?
I think maybe Alex has a "bromance" in mind for our own Adam Wright.
So far, Adam's stories are far and away better. Maybe Alex can hire Adam as a ghost writer?

Admin. Move this to the “What the F$&k Is this Nut talking about Forum”.

I can send him an autographed poster of the latest Registry cover, think that will help?
Or I could send him a fat stack and he could wallpaper his BH breakroom.

LOM- I can type more slowly and use little words if it will help you.
Admin- Please don't move the post- I don't want to crowd LOM's personal forum.

I don’t know how I got on Alex’s list but I do see these email blasts about once a month. Can’t say that I’ve ever read one.

I do read Adam’s editorials.

Oh. My apologies.
The Tall Tales is a newsletter? I thought the tall tales was your reference for “BHCCs” various listings and their “mechanically sound” moniker for any car that runs.

It's also worth pointing out that while Alex is basically blogging about cars he buys what people like me are doing is getting articles published in actual magazines like Porsche 356 Registry, ESSES, Excellence, 9 Magazine, and on places like PCA.org

Adam,
A quarter buys what, a clue? You are not up to date on inflation. A quarter now only buys me saying F U...and not all the letters of FU bc of inflation.

On the flip side - yes, great articles!

Which reminded me of this gem:
