Yeah, but can she tell a dual-quad 427 Ford from a dual-quad 427 Chevy at 100 ft?!?  Kinda don't think so....







(but I realize that's not the only quality they're looking for.)

Na, I'm having trouble telling quickly telling links apart from everything else since they're not underlined or a different color so I didn't see the voting link and didn't know she was in the running. She ain't really my taste either.

You're only 36, Stu? Thought you were older.  [cheeky] [laugh]

Hey, you started it.

Married me, took out life insurance policy on me, changed out my levers, then conveniently skipped the country before I discovered the brakes didn't work during a panic stop on the freeway. [roll]

OK, so I emailed the web guys about the issues we brought up. The vote count is on a slight delay, but he insists that all votes are counted. Alos, they are contancting the people who authorize the email addresses to include .mil accounts as valid accounts.

Vote Away!
