Spotted in the firm parking lot this morning
« on: June 04, 2020, 11:22:46 AM »
Not quite sure of the year.
"Low she sits on five spoke wheels
Small block eight so live she feels
There she's parked beside the curb
Engine revving to disturb
She's the princess from his past
Red paint gold stripes damned she's fast"

And two of a lawyer from the office taking a picture of me taking a picture. And no to a suit today. What for. Courts are still closed and I have back up dress pants and a tie in the car if I am challenged on it.

Glad to see you were social distancing, I think I saw a Camaro in the background
Owned since 1971, now driven over 245,000 miles, makes me smile every time I drive it and it makes me feel 21 again.😎

Get ready to pay some cash for these photos and make sure you get the negatives also....

Maybe in a parallel universe. If such a thing exists.

I think we are in one now. Where is the fast forward button so we can get to 2021?

No fast forward button but there does seem to be a slow mo button for this trainwreck happening.
