I finally got rid of it.

Now it's back.

You fucker.

To be honest, I never understood car leasing -- blame it on my desire to own things but I just can't get comfortable with renting a car. Post 9/11, with the new car interest rates hovering around 0%, I don't know why anyone would lease rather than buy. I got a $40k car at 0.9%, will pay less than $1,000 interest over 4 years and have something of value at the end that I can drive for another 5+ years for "free" and still be able to make a few grand in resale or trade-in.

Because that means driving the same damn car for 5+ years and some of us just can't do that. Once the leather smell goes away, it's time for a new one!!!
Actually, I did have a car, once, for 7 years and it wasn't worth shit on trade in - they never are. Once it's out of warranty, it's history.

Fringey, this makes no sense whatsoever. If you're going to get into a flame war with the Robust One (Two?), you've got to do better. I think what you mean to say is that RP is to Fringey as Fringey is to Burger (come out an play, if you're woman enough!), but that means substituting RP for Fringey and Fringey for Burger. Feel free to run any new attempts at insult past me first, I don't want RP to have to waste her time with these.

I don't run things by stupid people. I was saying that like Burger, robust puppies are not up to engaging in flame wars with me because of the mismatch in skill levels.

Was that a joke, or do you go commando? If you were being serious, I have new-found respect for you.

Now would be an appropriate time for all of you to weigh in with stories of your own examples of coitus interruptus, or almost coitus interruptus.

Two words....

Hotel

Housekeeping. (said with a slight accent and upward inflection and add sound effect of 2 knocks)

I believe I'm supposed to flail wildly in my own defense for your amusement before succumbing to your ultimately superior intellect and wit, so here goes.

This is really a relatively simply gramatical construct, one that any good Puppy would jump on, and, after all, ABBA is a fine potential candidate for a tussle this afternoon. She feels some pride because she has attempted to import a very witty saying on the board, but she mangled it in the process. It is up to us to call her on it.

Yes, I am a tribute sock and I may be going beyond my raison d'etre by taking on ABBA. But you are looking for entertainment, no? And ABBA can be entertaining if we get her ticked enough. Ty is willing to help.

If that's true it's only because your multiple personalities give you more opportunity to practice your ripostes.

Yes. And I love Hobbes. Love Calvin too.
It's just that T&T dogged my avatar yesterday and I'm just striking back. No offense to Hobbes - my favorite tiger.

Oh, no, Ms. Einstein, you don't run things by stupid people like me or engage in flame wars with the Robust One. Instead you engage in a flame war with the Robust One's little puppy whom you think is so stupid? Who's up to whose standards here?

Try again.

hmmm, two years already on the current TF-Mobile and still smells new. My rainy-day car is 8 years old and still smells nice (but not new). Have your car detailed once a week, don't eat or drink in it (or allow anyone else to) and it will stay nice for years after it is paid for. You are correct, trade in can be tough. But you can always find someone who will pay a couple grand for a decent running car. Or donate it and take the tax write-off.

Thank you, I accept your gift in the spirit in which it was given.
