Hi all

Got a little overzealous with the Magnum this morning when I pulled out and left some nice marks on the street in front of the house.  Any way to clean them up before the wife rips me a new one?

Heh, my mom just smiles when I leave a bit of rubber; thoguh she'll nag on me a bit when we're at the gas station. But then, she wants a new Challenger.

Just don't do like my brother does, and leave rubber at every chance you possibly can get.

Not to hijack, but right outside my subdivision, some hot shoe left a couple of nice 50 ft stripes.

First my wfe interrogated me, making the assuption it was my handy work.

Then one of my buddies made the assuption they were mine.

Next a couple of neighbors asked me about them.

I make it a rule not to make a nuisance of myself in the neighborhood,  :angel:  but dang, for all the grief I've gotten over those marks, I may as well have put them there myself.  ;D

If they were good ones I wouldve told her it adds value to the house!  These are just chirp marks.  Got kids in the neighborhood, so its not a good idea to rip a good pair here. Besides I cant give her too much grief.  she bought me both of my Chargers as gifts!

UMMM lets make excusses. 

1.  The throttle spring broke.

2.  My leg had a cramp and I could not let off the gas

3.  Some thing is wrong with that Damn trasmission.

4.  My foot slipped off the brake and hit the gas.

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

How about:

I wanted to see if the traction control worked!

I wanted to see if I could feel the engine management system go from 4 cyl to 8?

I sneezed?

:icon_smile_approve:

Is CUTE too overused, or did it not seem feminine enough for you ?

Guess we know who wears the pants in your house. Sounds like your wife would just love me, to death that is.
