Old Family Photos and other things

[darin]

I have an external HD - sometimes it works. Yesterday it worked prompting me to spend about 7 hours at the computer going through the photos to find the images I *really* want, and those I might be able to sell.

Anywho - was tons of fun remembering life. I've pulled a few of my favourites and placed them here!

My pup, Aoife - age about 8 weeks

My Mazda making an 'honest road' of old Route 66. Just love seeing a Japanese car parked defiantly across the lanes of a road used back when American autos 'meant' something. Back before the UAW drove prices up and quality down.

Thank you!

That FD you had - man...do you regret getting rid of it? I was on the fence - was looking at them, but on some of the forums I'd see posts like:

"Hey! I made it 60,000 miles without having to rebuild!" followed by replies of "BS!" and "Liar" and "Troll!"

Course - these were modified FD's, generally with single-turbo conversions and lots of boost (400hp+ at times).

So - I chickened out and went with my 215hp RX8 instead. Maybe I'll look for a 7 someday, after I get "rich" :)

:D
