Bad news Fellas

We are apparently just not marriage material...

I quote,
"According to the researchers, women found a man who chose to purchase a flashy luxury product (such as a Porsche) more desirable than the same man who purchased a non-luxury item (such as a Honda Civic). However, there was a catch: Although women found the flashy guys more desirable for a date, the man with the Porsche was not preferred as a marriage partner. Women inferred from a man’s flashy spending that he was interested in uncommitted sex."

- See more at: Does driving a Porsche make a man more desirable to women?

Me at 20, was it the car?

The trick is to get a lady who likes your car and wants to have your children. Still have the car, still have the girl, even another kid!
I should send this picture to whoever wrote that study.

Like the targa, love the boy.

Just be glad that I am not a crossdresser with a fluxed DeLorean and that Ronnie was not on the Eastcoast when I hit 88mph.

Growing up I had a buddy who used to say,"finger banging is still banging". Maybe in the eyes of the church, but in the eyes of your friends you are still a virgin...
