Forte2me, Thank you again for the guidance . . . . . I was wondering if the paid subscription to Team Camaro was worth it, sounds like it will be. Patrick

Forte2me, I got to agree with you, the '69 is the ONE. I am starting to pay attention to the codes to figure out trim packages, as you indicated - seems everyone wants to dress theirs as an SS . . . . The wife would shoot me if i even floated the price of a Z28 past her . . . . but i do need a 4 spd and a 12 bolt rear. Ah, the search continues ..

Gentlemen, thank you for the help and comments. Flying is cheap if i can save that much . . . . Rich, I never noticed the wheel well difference before; I had noticed that the top of the front fenders seemed a bit wider though. I still prefer the '69 overall . . . . . . and a redhead or strawberry blond ain't bad either . . . . . .

Bill, thank you for the link; it is the first time i have used searchtempest (but i often thought there ought to be something out there like that). I stayed up to 1am following those items . . . . . . . I feel another obsession coming on . . . . . . Patrick

Hey, I know it is "slightly" off-topic, but not too dissimiliar from the 1911 post (i would like to buy one of those too), but I thought I would take a flyer and ask if anyone out there has a 1969 Camaro they want to sell. Ideally no serious rust, 4 spd, not overly molested after 40 years, relatively straight body, etc. but willing to consider anything . . . . My son just one and it is the new project for he and I, but it is his and I feel that yearning. Strangely, unlike my speaker and 2 channel acqusitions, SWMBO has NO objections. Indeed, she said, while completely sober, that his car looks "sexy" and that if I wanted to get one it would be okay with her. . . . . . . . after 31 yrs of marriage I can't remember getting such leeway. . . . . wonder what she is up to ??????????? my email is patrick AT mccarthykroes DOT com

"THE BLONDE AND THE COW" A blond city girl named Amy marries a Colorado rancher. One morning, on his way out to check on the cows, the rancher says to Amy, 'The insemination man is coming over to impregnate one of our cows today, so I drove a nail into the 2 by 4 just above where the cow's stall is in the barn. Please show him where the cow is when he gets here, OK?' The rancher leaves for the fields. After a while, the artificial insemination man arrives and knocks on the front door. Amy takes him down to the barn. They walk along the row of cows and when Amy sees the nail, she tells him, 'This is the one right here.' The man, assuming he is dealing with an air head blond, asks, 'Tell me lady, 'cause I'm dying to know; how would YOU know that this is the right cow to be bred?' 'That's simple," she said. "By the nail that's over its stall,' she explains very confidently. Laughing rudely at her, the man says, 'And what, pray tell, is the nail for?' The blond turns to walk away and says sweetly over her shoulder, 'I guess it's to hang your pants on.' (It's nice to see a blond winning once in awhile.) --

Hey Oldenough, kinda cool that your 1,000th post is taking the high ground.

Rev, you would know better than me, but are we to offer congrats or condolences to this lad???????? Matter of perspective, I guess. DD, hope all is well with you and the family. patrick

Alright everyone, I think it is time for us to do an INTERVENTION and save this poor soul from the fate that awaits all topposters . . . . . . . . . . . not sure what it is, but let's do the intervention anyway! HURRY

Hey Craig, it is just a number; and it is a number that doesn't really matter since we are all still on the right side of the grass! Happy belated B-day.

"It was a bad position to be put in." . . . . . . gosh, i wouldn't mind being put in a bad position with her . . . . but my wife has no sense of humor about such things . . . . she thinks those hussies just want me for my body . . . . . so, is that a bad thing?

Christy, sweet deal by a sweet lady. I am going to ask you to do all my audio shopping from now on, as you do a much better job than i. Hey, how are you at shopping for woodworking tools (my other expensive hobby)? Dtel, you had better take good care of that lady; an awful lot of us out here are pretty darned impressed with,charmed by her.

gary, greetings from the left coast. hope your day was exceptional . . . . and your evening even better! best regards, patrick

I guessed wrong; I thought the answer to this question (actually, to all questions) was "SEX."

mi amigo miguel, no feeda el troll, por favor,eh?

"fraud" might be a bit harsh, although not necessarily inaccurate. Poetic or literary license would seem to be too "soft", but somewhere in the middle lies a suitable description. None-the-less, an interseting site/story . . . . . . but i don't think i will be visiting the ruins anytime soon. jmho,ymmv, etc

Sputs, i am (again) confused: did you actually mean to post yours in the Anti-post thread or the Emperor's New Post thread? Best Regards to them little critters, Patrick

deano, so ya wanna reconsider your opinion on whether batboy's pigeon is a troll???????????????????????????????? Why engage him (it) further? YMMV, JMHO, etc

"You are sure backing down on things tonight. No list of theaters with Jubilees! I wonder why?" Sheeschhh, we can't give you that list until after you learn the secret forum handshake . . . . .

"May I call you Parrot... ?" Not to worry Coytee, the rest of us "got it". You funny boy, you.

Gregg, i think i will bookmark this for the next time the missus suggests i've spent too much money on gear . . . . . WOW, what gorgeous looking gear; would love to hear it in person. MaxG, you da man!

dtel, it was my pleasure. You 2 are a cute couple.

dtel, first of all, i would need a wife as understanding and adorable as yours before i could even consider this . . . . then i would need a room large enough to accommodate all of the speakers . . . . . so, if i was to envision this fantasy for myself . . . . . i would have to go with option #2, the corns and their littler siblings.

joe, i think kevin in chicago (kev313???) had some, but i don't recall the details of his analysis.

Batmans (sic) Robin, just a few thoughts: . . . and maybe you should read Lynn Truss' book Eats, Shoots and Leaves . . . . . . why isn't it Batman's Robin???? . . . and don't those professional psychologists (redundant, don't you think) use the term "projecting" to describe what you are doing here?? Nota Bene : you can attack all the boys you want, but you had better NOT EVER say anything that could, even remotely, be construed as being negative about our favorite lady (Ms. Christy, aka dtel's much cuter half).
