But now, I'm at the point that I look at food and I figure it's like slapping a 2 pound weight on to the Camaro... now all I want to eat is jello and water, and I can practically see the Camaro getting lighter and lighter, and faster and faster.
![Icon Lol](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies2/icon_lol.gif)
I hate jello.
Thats all they give me after surgery and it gets gross after awhile. Not to mention unless its "diet" jello it won't do you any good except make you start playing with your food.
(If anyone see's him build mountians out of mashed potatoes, stop and ask "what cha doin?", please?)

At least I feel better about my memory since I have the pictures Josh took..yep, Darrin and I were there. Oh, it was my birthday and everyone was spared any further Donkey jokes since husband was in Louisiana as a first responder. Date? Sept 2nd.
Sweet that I turned a year older and still remember the details including the folder I saved the pictures to

Joking round with someone you know and have had a lot of interaction with is one thing. Showing up after not posting for a few months and taking a pot-shot at someone that goes to almost every show or gathering is kinda glaring though I keep telling myself you are young, drive an expensive car and can be rather foul-languaged/abrasive to all responses at times. Sounds about right, yes, you guys know what I'm talking about now that you think back. Someone stop Mark. He doesn't need to think *that* far back

I see a goal to strive for and you are making some headway with your last sentence. It will carry you a long way come this spring, seriously. Just remind yourself most of us are old, been there, done that and know better sometimes.
Peace Out

Concerning Mark, Mark and I joke around, but it is mainly about college rivalries, work, and sometimes my girlfriend. I don’t see the need to really elaborate any further, but if I am wrong Mark, please feel free to chime in and correct me.
Now I’d like to address the 3 observation you have made of me, which I’ve gone ahead and listed below for the ease of reading.
1. Being young
2. Drive an expensive car
3. Foul-languaged / Abrasived
1. Yes I am young, I’m 22, but please don’t place me into that same stereotype that you have manifested in your head. This statement is the most of upsetting of the 3, b/c I know that it is a direct shot to undermine and discredit me as a person. I have worked very hard in my life to get to where I am today, and don’t believe that you’re in any position to reduce me in any way or fashion.
2. What does that have to do with anything? Not once have I ever look down on anyone on this forum for driving whatever it is they drive. To me it’s all the same, whether we drive a Corvettes, T/As, SS, Cobras, etc. We all drive these cars, b/c we share the same passion, not b/c we want to be better than anyone else. Of course, where we do want to be better than everyone else is at the track, but it doesn’t even matter what your car looks like there, b/c it’s all about what the public can’t see.
3. It is obvious, by your previous 2 statements, that you really don’t know me or who I am. Therefore, I’m just going to ignore this statement and move on to the next area of concern.
The sad thing about your comments is that you have made very vague statements that show your lack of respect towards me and others. As you mentioned, you’re not the only old person on here, given, but you fail to take into consideration that I am not the only young guy on here. Nor am I the only Corvette driver, nor am I the only guy that pokes fun at fellow members.

Now, there really wasn’t any reason to respond to my post, seeing as me and Darrin had already resolved the situation, yet you felt the need, which is perfectly fine “Freedom of Speech”. But please understand that I am only responding in defense and not to try to personally attack you.

I so knew what response that would elicit - it was a gauge of where you are at since you kinda gave that ball a shove off a big cliff. Hells bells. You made your own goal of losing weight and getting a race car. How's that working for ya?

Yep, it was the usual debate about politics which can never be quiet. Its why we steer clear of religion too :p

Actually they are these so we would never lose him on those times the little kid who visits his grandparents unhooks him off his lead. Even if he's out of range *someone* should call saying there is a dog wandering around with sunglasses and panties on his head.
Or at least I would hope no one out here would think its a normal sight...
