TAN #29 The case of the disappearing TAN (Page 4)

That I can see....  The silver lining in the whole gas price thing (if there is such a thing), is the industry probably being forced to make more green and efficient things as the market demands them.

ALSO, more motorcycle and skooter awareness is good for me for selfish reasons.

I guess it perspective.  Going from a Hummer (A GMC PRODUCT - SO DON'T YANK!) to a hybrid makes a big difference, but for me to go from my Acura to a hybrid is probably not as much.  Say I could save 20% on gas bills, but if I was living so tight that 20% causes me to change cars, maybe I shouldn't have had the acura in the first place.....

Spokes - 2008-06-12 2:04 PM Yanti, sorry to hear that. When are you flying home? More importantly, are you going to stay and not come back ?

Weeeeell ... that's always a risk when going home. I've got a lot of stuff going on here, but I'm going to put my ducks in a row, so to speak.

I'll probably leave on the 24th/25th and return after 4th of July weekend.

All of a sudden I feel very strange, and heavy, and sad. There's just been so much lately.

All right, back to the light yet overly suggestive TAN banter.

I think it's you, because it's 1:00!

That is true

ConSMACKulations!!! Mwah!

It's awesome having you around. You're a Rawk Star.

I think I am going to call it a day, folks.  I have been up for 36 straight hours and I am getting sleepy and non-productive.  Good day to all.

Let's try and not get this one yanked.  Remember that just a few months ago we basicallly had to beg to keep TAN around and we are not helping our own cause by causing the Marma police to have to watch us so closely.  Peace to all.

I'm inclined to agree with you, from my extremely limited (yet, as we've seen, far-too-often offered) perspective.

Most of the really rich folks I know--my bread-and-butter actually comes from working with and taking care of doggies for a few celebrity clients--don't care about conspicuous consumption. They use stuff, including cars, that they like and that work well. They don't HAVE to show off their ultra cool cars. And the last thing they want is to be noticed or have their cars noticed. For official stuff and functions, they get limo'ed around.

The folks with the expensive gas guzzlers seem to be the ones who can just barely afford them, but want to be perceived as being able to have luxuries.

Spokes - 2008-06-12 2:18 PM I think Yanti and Beth no longer love me. No more Inspires, PMs... its like I'm dead to them...

Honey, the threesomes couldn't go on forever. Especially with the Blonde around. You know that.

'Cause we all just wanna be big rawk stars
And live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars
The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap
We'll all stay skinny 'cause we just won't eat
And we'll hang out in the coolest bars
In the VIP with the movie stars
Every good gold digger's
Gonna wind up there
Every Playboy bunny
With her bleach blond hair
And we'll hide out in the private rooms
With the latest dictionary and
today's who's who
They'll get you anything
with that evil smile
Everybody's got a
drug dealer on speed dial
Hey hey I wanna be a rawkstar

Cheers, John, and rest well. Mwah.
