Would you want to see a pictures of what everyone here looked like but the only way you could is by posting a pic of yourself? Nothing dirty, unless thats your fetish, but just like a head shot.

In 1990, when I was eight, I had my first crush on a singer. It was rock singer Jimmy Barnes, who used to be lead singer of an Australian rock group called Cold Chisel. I got my first tape of him as a solo singer for my ninth birthday. I still have it, and it still goes. He was so damned sexy in the pic - all leather clad - yummy! He was also the first singer I ever saw in concert.
Second group I ever saw in concert was The Eagles, when they were touring for their "Hell Freezes Over" concerts. I had just turned 13, and went along with my mother. That was an awesome concert.
Most of my fave music now is by New Zealand rock groups. I do listen to a host of genres, but when I'm road tripping by myself, it's usually those CDs that I crank up first.
Boy! I have a hard time even trying to conceive that. When DW saw what I had written she said, "Tim, you don't want to be that big. Your skinny body can barely lift what you have now!" I guess I'd better start going to the gym more often.

Maybe in Texas y'all have a little more room to expand the speed limit than I do...I got caught speeding in my Dad's '66 Mustang to "Dude Looks Like a Lady" years ago. Didn't get a ticket, though. The kind officer liked the song, too. I don't think the quickly undone extra button on my blouse hurt his feelings either...Man, I loved that car!

Long as you haven't lost your rhythm...;)
>>>>I got caught speeding in my Dad's '66 Mustang to "Dude Looks Like a Lady" years ago.<<<< LMAO....I DID get a ticket in my '74 Duster doing 80 in a 55 and I forget the song playing, I just remember it was one I liked and before I knew it I was doing 80....it was CRANKED though....I never heard his siren.
>>>>>I don't think the quickly undone extra button on my blouse hurt his feelings either<<<<<< Didn't have the benefit of female wiles and body parts....I was just a sullen rebel teenager in a "sports" car. That "sports car" was as long as the '88 Chevy Celebrity station wagon "family car" I owned about 5 yrs later. LMAO.
Loved that Duster too, still have it BTW and if time, space, and money permit will rebuild one day. It would do 120 mph all stock....well with a 318 cid engine it would. (snicker, snicker) "Dusted" off a mid '80's Camaro with it once too in a stop light drag. OOOPS, I may be revealing too much of my wild and wooly youth (did ya'll know a '94 Dakota's fuel limiter cuts in a 120 also?)OOOOPS, there I go again, only that wasn't my youth. (triple snicker)

I told my Daddy that I'd come by my leadfoot naturally. He used to "blow the carbon off the engine" in that same Mustang by going down a huge hill towards a river on the first interstate we had in passing gear. The fastest I ever saw him go was 110mph, but I know he tried to better himself when he was alone.
He outran a state trooper that he kinda/sorta pushed the envelope on when he was passing a farm truck on a double yellow line and meeting the trooper. Trooper turned around to catch him and never did! Damn, I miss Dad!

That's funny....my dad was NOT the hot rod type, but ALL of us 4 boys have our fair share of tickets and know the handling limits and top speeds of all our cars. The only reason I haven't had the '05 Durango up to the fuel limiter is the thing is too heavy on its tires and I don't feel comfortable going into a back road sweeper at top speed....I do know the thing will hit 100 to 110 without even breathing hard....done that a time or two passing someone on a back road. "OOOOOPS" I say, DW says "Yeah right"....she drives the same way I do so it is all good. It's funny, but DS (16 yo) rolls his eyes and gets nervous while DD (8 yo) just laughs and giggles like a maniac....THAT'S the one I am going to have to worry about. LMAO!!!
Anyway, all us boys were talking at my dad's funeral about cars and breaking them (dad was the one we ALL went to for repair advice, there was a wealth of automotive info went with him when he died), and one of my brothers said something along the lines of "Driving like ALL the males of this clan do". (I miss MY dad too!!!!)
I got busted passing on the shoulder and started to do my damndest to blow that DPS off too, but one of my passengers was on parole and panicked and told me I better stop becuase if we DID get caught he was going back to juvee....had to shut it down....would have loved to see if I could have pulled it off though.
