I assume that this is directed at me?

I don't really know why exactly.:orely: Whenever I go to the store I just sort of gravitate to that aisle and remain there for quite some time. I guess there are few things for me in life that have remained as consistent as my fondness for the above mentioned engrained gems.

Its like Top Gun, it just keeps getting better for me. :lol:

Four cars I've owned (and 3 that were eventually totaled)
79 Chevy Camaro - OK, I didn't actually total this thing but I hit so many things with it (buildings, bushes, signposts, telephone poles, other cars) it probably shoud've been.

88 Chevy Celebrity - My first car. I actually hit the mayor in this car. Then the engine died sometime later.

93 Chevy Lumina Car - We nick-named this car Christine because it was red and tried to kill me a few times. I ran into a gaurdrail with it and it came back. It finally died when a pickup truck pulled out and stopped in front of me while I was doing 55MPH.

94 Chevy Lumina Van - We had JUST paid it off a couple of months prior when a deer decided to jump in front of me.

:lol: What happened to them?

Them being the car or the mayor?

The car was still drivable but the bumper was pushed over to one side.

The mayor was ok but his wife claimed whiplash. I wasn't going more than 15 or 20 miles an hour when I hit them. I was lost in the middle of a construction zone and was looking for detour signs when I missed a red light.

Dude, I got some hot sauce for you. It's named "Ass Blaster" and three drops of it can season an entire meal. The next step up when I bought it required signing a liability release waiver. It has some serious heat that rivaled some of the chemical munitions we used at the prison I worked in.

There is also a chemical munition called "Top Cop" that we used. It registered at 2,000,000 SHU. That crap left my legs looking like a freshly boiled lobster more than 12 hours after I rolled around fighting an inmate in it. Now that was some HOT stuff. Try putting some of THAT in your chili and I promise you a night of wishing for a crash helmet and a seatbelt on the toilet.

Using chemical weapons to season your food. I love it. :lol: I could always synthesize pure capsaicin at 15-16,000,000 SHU. I figure at that intensity everyone in the house would have severe chemical burns without even eating it. :lol:
