What about the Edsel ? A great flop for the Ford Motor Co .

We're hoping to do the Hot Rod Power Tour this summer...still trying to get a few more things to line up before making the final commitment. This is my sisters car that they show and take on the tour. Believe it or not the 56 chevy is a tornado survivor... the Lexus that was sitting next to it in the garage was not. The house was totally gone too. But all the family made it fine. I was just being goofy in my "spring hat" cause someone said I needed to wear a floppy hat in the convertible!! LOL

See the USA in your Chevrolet, who can give me the next line ?

America is asking you to call

Karen, you are a winner !

I have had many different cars and always loved my Chevies , I never owned a Corvette but have driven one.

We looked at so many cars before we decided to get the Allante. And several corvettes too. But we really wanted to get a decent classic for a decent price without it needing a whole lot of work. Plus, a reason we decided to not go with a corvette is if we are doing power tours we have no room for the puppies and no room for any luggage. Even being gone just a week we still need stuff..... so went for this instead.

I would have got the corvette and sent the luggage and puppies by Fedex.

And the beer too? ;)

One of the strangest things about the so-called Land Of The Free is that in some jolly states, such as mine in Maryland, it is illegal to send or receive alcohol by mail. You heard me.

Freedom? Nope. Bring back the Queen. In England you can buy whisky at a gas station on a Sunday morning.

Now that is freedom!

Or you could live here in New Zealand :lol:

Here where I live you can buy it on Sundays... whiskey, wine and beer!

The State we are in.

Hopefully Euphoria, not Anxiety.

Now we're getting somewhere - love that you Doors fans come out of the woodwork.

As I type, listening to Youtube short of Show me the way to the next whisky bar

Show me the way to go home.
I'm tired and I want to go to bed.
I had a little drink about an hour ago.
And it's gone right to my head.
Everywhere I roam on land sea or foam,
You can always hear me singing my song.
Show me the way to go home.

Coming home from the whisky bar, no doubt.

Musha rain dum a doo, dum a da :D

I am translating that to mean it is raining in New Zealand today.

Here in Northern California where I live it is expected to be 94 degrees today.My home state of Minnesota is having 18 inches of SNOW today!!!

Perhaps, or a good day to whack a daddy-o, per

Love Thin Lizzy. LOVE them. Although, Metallica did a pretty good job of it too.

Ok, by popular request, Thin Lizzy - Whiskey in the jar 1973

That's the one lol It's the only whiskey song I can think of! I've only heard the Metallica version :D

You've never heard Whiskey River by Wille Nelson ? You must have lived a sheltered life !
Then there is Whiskey Lullaby by Brad Paisley.

Whiskey? Where?

Any way just saying hi

mrsaugie. good to hear from you. Drop in again and tell us all about the kids, not babies any more, fight ?

No their not. Kayden just had his 9th birthday and Virgina will be 3 later this months. Madelyn is growing so fast. I'll have to get some pics soon.

A random thing we know about Rhiko:

Her real name is not on this list:Because this site says that those 18 baby names are banned in New Zealand.

[Noting that Rumpelstiltskin isn't on the list.]

I don't listen to country. I was brought up listening to Deep Purple, Bad Company, etc. :) I predominantly listen to pop to hard-rock music from the 80s and 90s.

Hah! An old friend of mine wanted to call her son Lucifer. I think it's the kids middle name? Why you'd want to name your child after the devil is beyond me, no matter how bad-a** a person might think they are. The kid has to live with it!

Anyway... :lol:

I can give you a hint of what my real name is, if you want?

G Ian....i can see your aura in new avatar :)

Can't say I am a Metallica fan but they did a fantastic job playing The Star Spangled Banner at AT&T park the other night.

Ya, now that they've sobered up, they know how to behave themselves. Plus, I noticed, they kept Lars outta the way, thankfully.

Exit light, enter night. Take my hand. Off to never nevr land.

Hush little baby don't say a word
And never mind that noise you heard
It's just the beast under your bed
In your closet in your head

Google !

I'm listening to country right now.

It just about covers everthing I like. Girls. Trucks. Beer. Denim. Moonshine.

And driving through fields?

My brother once took my mum's car and got it stuck in the mud in a school playing field which he decided to drive through. He was too young to drive and did not have a driving license. The police turned up. And they called AAA. AAA pulled them out of the mud. He drove home. No-one checked his driving license.

Magical.

Since I don't listen to country music, how do you think I found out that the artists you suggested were country singers? lol

Focus, people, focus!

The question is whether one can name their firstborn 'Luftballon' in New Zealand.

The Sky Tower?

^^ This is what happens when you answer questions while you are dead tired :lol: and then not come back to read over your answer when you are wide awake.
I wonder if you could get away, in any country, calling your child Spaghetti? ;)
