Karma was the biggest part of my ability to acquire my then new ZO6 at age 51 as well as all my other lifes' blessings.

So I went to the doctor and he told me I had a bad case of Smileitis and that it would only get worse if I keep coming here lol.

I finally managed to post a couple of pic's in my opening post. It's a Wonderful day! I find myself just looking out the window in amazement. But I guess you guy's wouldn't understand. lol.

Default It's never too late

Turned 60 two months ago. Bought a black 08 yesterday. AARP?? Try "reckless endangerment".

Why won't it slid sideways? Oh, turn off the traction control. Duh!
