Yeah, he "stuck with it" until Chevy came out with cars in any color
you wanted!
Yes, ol' Henry was a genius alright, that's why today you can buy Fords in any color
you want, too.

Finally they did. Without that there would have been no V8!
With all due respect, Phil, that's just not true.
We would have had V-8s one way or the other.
Because when people started to demand faster cars, *someone* would have
invented it.
Just like someone invented the V-10, V-12, etc.

Steve's impact on my life is akin to the impact on me of a mosquito
imbedded in the ass of a chimp in Uganda.

Yes, I've heard that sheep like to flock.
I'm an eagle, Phil, and eagles don't flock.

I'm pretty happy with my life just the way it is, Phil.

That's absolutely brilliant, Phil.
It's lucky for me that I'm already pretty damn successful, I suppose,
eh?
Yep, it was just my luck.
Better to be lucky than "smart," eh?
p> As far as the formatting question I totally agree with Steve's response.
That's certainly your prerogative, Phil, but I think I'll stand my
own ground, if you don't mind.
BTW, have Smart Little Stevie show you how to wrap your lines, okay?
My neck is sore from trying to read them.
