I was driving my '83 300D beater through Crystal RIver which is a short
distance from the outer edge of the tidal swamp that makes up the coast
of this part of north central Florida when some big sea bird (probably a
pelican) dumped a huge load of white feces on the hood. I was on the
way home so I didn't stop to clean it off. By the time I arrived at the
house, the pelicans present had dried and was barely removeable with a
garden hose. It stained the evenly oxidized blue finish of the beater,
and as everyone knows, there is no way to get stain out of oxidized
paint besides letting it continue to oxidize until the paint has
powdered off and the stain is gone.
There are many advantages to having a Mercedes daily driver with
oxidized paint. No one envies me for having a Mercedes, and thieves
don't even think about breaking into it since there is little likelihood
of anything valuable being inside.
So you see, Randy, there are always problems with our old Mercedes.
It's just that many are hardly worth discussing.
As far as discussing current events, Amanda Knox has once against been
declared guilty of murdering her room mate by an Italian court. Does
anything think she is guilty? Not guilty? Personally I think she is
guilty.
Mr. Sterlings team has been barred from playing in his league because
Mr. Sterling said some bad words in private. How is this justified in
light of the Constitutions "freedom of speech"?
