Default Congrats, Sam Strano!

When I first saw the cover of the new Sept. 2007 issue, I said, "Hey! Somebody took a spy shot of my white Camaro and put it on the cover!" Normally, this situation happens when body building mags steal photos of my body and paste soemone else's face on them, so I'm no stranger to the occurance.

I was only slightly dissapointed to learn that the much-needed white camaro love was Sam's car.

Just flipped through it real quick and left it at home, but it looks like a good write-up. Congrats, Sam!

I haven't gotten it yet. Looking forward to it.

When I read your first post up top, it was the first time I've actually chuckled out loud from reading the internet in quite a while. Cheers to you lol.
