Confession Time. Spill it!

When my mother was an intern she use to work late through the night, sleep through the day. So the only time we ever got to talk about anything was when she'd get home. So what I used to do, I used to lie in my bed and try to stay awake as long as I could. But it never worked. The harder I tried, the faster I'd fall asleep.

Funny thing is sometimes she'd come home early. I'd pretend to be asleep. She'd stand in the doorway looking at me, and I'd keep my eyes shut. And I knew she just wanted to find out about my day. So she came home early, just to talk to me. I still wouldn't move I'd still pretend to just be asleep.

I don't know why I did that.

It was a control and power struggle between you too
you had power over her
the staying awake and doing it is a deep mystery for dr phil

I see what you did there, Wade.

You have got to be joking if you didn't recognize that reference.
 
Sorry for rudely intersecting myself into your conversation, but for me, it was 135 in a 1977 Trans Am, without a stock motor. It belonged to a friend, but, I was driving it....we traded vehicles for the day. It was a nice car, but another fri3nd has the same year, way low miles, and bone stock, adult owned type of investment type car. Anyway, it's definitely a trip driving that fast. I did 103 on my old Harley...which was REALLY fast for an old shovel head, but i built the snot out of that scooter. The best I can claim in a truck, is almost 80 in a day cab 18 Wheeler. I would like to go over 100 in a semi, just once to see how freaky it is.

As far as the Road Runner goes, the one muscle car I would get, if only one was the way it had to be, would be a 1969 Super Bee....which was basically the Roadrunner, with thar package. Has to be a 440/6 pack, with a 4 speed...because the wife can't drive a stick...and the color choice would be Lime green, with a flat black hood, or all black, or Plum Crazy purple.

Anyway, that's my little interuption into your conversation.

Bought a seriously fast Subaru last year(already have a light speed straight line 78 corvette) and took it north of town on I-5 where you can see for 5 miles lifted off when the speedo said 145 it was quite the Rush.

No interruption. Glad you chimed in. I never get tired of hearing muscle car stories.


When I was 18 I had the chance to buy a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS for 2000 bucks. It was metallic brown with matching factory metallic brown wheels and looked mint. I begged my mother to loan me the money and she wouldn't budge.

Needless to say it would be worth a king's ransom today.

If we'd only known... and had some money back then. :(


Also, my muscle-car dream list is about a mile long, but I have two words: Hemi Dart.

Mine too. And it gets longer every time I watch Barrett-Jackson or Mecum's. One of these days I'd like to go to one of those auctions. Not to buy anything - just to watch. I'd rather do that than be on the set of a porn movie.

I've never seen Jurassic Park (any of them) or E.T. and I don't want to. However, I do own the Atari 2600 E.T. video cartridge (and a console to play it on) and it as terrible as the urban legends say it is.
