I was at the Parker 425 pre-run last weekend and the guys I was with both have a very nice high end 4 seat pre-runner cars. Were are standing there and this guy walks up and says, "that is a really nice car...what did you pay for it?" The guy that owns it Scott looked directly at me and smirked and said "enough". The guy asked again a minute later and Scott answered again "enough". .

He knows the value...so next time just say: "you can pick these up at repo bank sales for $35-$40K all day long if you know where to buy them", then politely part ways with the conversation. He will stay up for the next month thinking about that statement and where you bought it. :D:D:D

Retired fireman of 22 years. Not my choice to retire, but, shit happens.

Since July of 2001 I've operated a great restaurant/bar, ROC;s Firehouse Grille, with a "Fire Department" theme. My wife Jayme is the brains of the place. Smart woman. I talk to customers and hang stuff up.

ROC's Firehouse Grille, Station #2, is gonna open this summer.:beer. The location couldn't be better for the LA and OC boaters, about 200 feet off the Cook Street exit on I-10. A perfect "river-bound pit stop" for lunch and a bathroom break.:beer

More to follow on that:D (HUGE Ribs & burgers & salads & sandwiches etc.....fire station style)

FYI, THIS IS NOT SPAM:D:D:D

I sell Harleys. 6 yrs and I get busier everyday. Hard to believe with the way everyone talks about economy. I love what I do. It is a lot of fun dealing with somthing you love.

Harleys are like gambling. People gamble when they have tons of dough and they gamble when they are depressed and broke. People will always ride.:beer

I need a new gig. My professional burn-out is off the charts this week.

Anyone hiring a smart-assed bitch with zero social skills, a sour disposition and an overall hatred towards the human race?

Sales perhaps?

You just described one of the employees here to a tee. Being that you are at least 100lbs lighter, you definitely would be easier on the eyes too. :p

Today I get to stomp around on someones old graphite mine to figure out how we can gain access to drill it. Apparently graphite prices are on the rise. I'm a Geologist and I manage a drilling company (not oil related).
