Who's going? I'm going to see Mater from "Cars." You know, like towmater, without the tow? And then I want to nail Erin Moran who played Joanie on Happy Days. I hope she still looks the same.

I hope your World of Wheels is better than ours has been the last several years. The last time I went to the Indy show, it was horrible. I've seen cars in junk yards that looked better than a lot of the stuff that was in the show.

Ehh, I was planning on going until I looked at the pics... Out of the 50 cars and bikes they have under "photos" the only onces that really stuck out were the massive Jeep Wrangler, 'vette, and the NSX... Everything else was hot rod, a couple ricers, and some airbrushed bikes. Not my kinda thing.
