Predictably, it's up for auction at BringaTrailer and it closes today. I have no idea what the right number is for this monstrosity beauty but I will not be surprised if FoGTB DB wins it.
A few other choice auctions that are within reach and end today include a 1990 300ZX Twin Turbo for Mark, a 1974 Fiat Jolly for our man at the beach, a very cheap and very shady 2014 Jaguar F-Type right here in NJ for rob, a 2004 VW R32 for rob's kid, a Laguna Blue (!!) 2001 BMW M Roadster in Acton, MA that Squeaky needs to buy right now (even the dreaded spot welds in the trunk look good), an Assuan Brown 1982 Volkswagen Westfalia with striped (not Boogie Woogie, sigh) fabric seats for rootsy, a Yellow Mist 1965 Mercury Comet Caliente Convertible for Whit, a remarkably crisp 1973 TR6 for Mr. KQ, and a 1972 350SL for Marls.
Damnit Z, you've linked an auction that I actually am tempted to bid on.
ReplyDeleteOur next car purchase will either be an upgrade to my wife's 2017 Outback, or something for the younger kid to drive in Cincinnati, if we decide to keep the outback local.
Is Dave still stuck with a 2012 Toyota Sienna? Even though he moved on from it a while back?
ReplyDeleteIf I had $9k in disposable income right now, I'd buy my zRec car.
ReplyDeletewhat time is the rapture? i gotta drive somewhere and i want to go when traffic will be light.
ReplyDeleteThere are two seatings for The Rapture, 4:20 and 6:09. You can use OpenTable to book.
ReplyDeleteShit. I only have Tock and Resy. Are they taking walk ups?
ReplyDeleteI know a guy who can get you in, goes by the name jesus and hangs out behind the 7-11 on wilshire
ReplyDeleteAnd now for something completely different. Robot umps!
ReplyDeleteI've been watching this system at AAA games, and I'm for it.
Kimmel was good last night. Measured and sincere monologue, then poked Regime afterward.
ReplyDeleteCynical theory on entire episode: ABC's parent company, Disney, mapped out entire sequence. After right-wing backlash to JK's fairly innocuous remarks about Kirk shooter, Big Hats decided to suspend him for a week or two and fully intended to bring him back. But suspension and possible threat of termination placate and re-directed Trump, Carr, etc., for a minute. ABC had already paid Trump $15 mil for a prior news-related snit and wanted to create some space this go 'round.
Disney has no control over Nexstar and Sinclair, which own a bunch of ABC stations and make their own programming decisions. But Disney calculated that it would absorb that hit and then at least appear principled for bringing back Kimmel. Decide for yourself if Kimmel was in on the proceedings and performance, though I tend to think not. Fewer people privy to plan and calculations means they were less likely to leak and draw further ire from TFG and Regime.
if someone were to describe you as a "sexual matador", what do you think that would indicate about you?
ReplyDeleteOK, I'll bite. I would take it as insult. Performative showman. Lot of macho posturing, domination and control, outdated attitudes toward actual partner-ing.
ReplyDeleteokay, now what if it was your wife?
ReplyDeleteI was told there'd be no math in this exercise ... I would have to ask what *she* means, as opposed to what *I* think it means. Unless she objects to your 'suit of lights' and bringing your sword to bed.
ReplyDeletenow that i've thoroughly confused obx dave, i'm gonna tell you what this is about, at the risk of making you vomit in your mouths.
ReplyDeletekatie miller, wife of stephen, told an interviewer that her husband is a sexual matador. which, gaaaaah.
I just saw the reference moment before checking in here.
ReplyDeleteI’d been thinking it was a personal experience for Rob prior to that. Was working on a few theories, but gaaaaah seems about right.
Also, do the Mets always play defense like a team of adhd squirrels?
ReplyDeleteYep
