I'm pretty sure it was TM's line. Hank would have stuck a donut reference in there somewhere.

Michael Jackson wants to open a Leprechaun themed park and Jessica Simpson's father wants to open a "Hooteresque" restaurant in Vegas called Daisy Dukes.

Quote:

“Michael is deadly serious about this idea,” a source told Ireland’s Daily Mirror. “He loves the whole idea of leprechauns and the magic and myths of Ireland. It would cost around 500 million Euros [about $635 million] to do. He’s always wanted to open his own theme park and he thinks Ireland is the perfect place and it will all be built around the leprechaun theme.”

Quote:

Jessica Simpson’s manager-dad is hoping to hook up with Caesars Palace in Las Vegas to open the first in a series of Hooters-like barbecue restaurants called Daisy Dukes — named after his daughter’s cut-off-wearing character in “The Dukes of Hazzard,” according to Life & Style Weekly. Jessica Simpson’s rep denies the story, but L&S claims that’s because her dad is making the plans without her knowledge.

Isn't "Fake LA" redundant?

Patent Para said the "sad, constant bid for attention." About me. Is that what you are all talking about?

As it happens, we agree entirely that the convertible with the suicide doors is the only model worth owning. They only made them between 1962 and 1964 if memory serves, so they're hard to find period, let alone in decent shape.

I know this is stupid, but I'm a car-geek and shit like this makes me fucking nuts.

The suicide door/"Kennedy" Lincoln convertible was made between 1961 and 1967.

It is a Continental, not a Town Car. The Town Car is an abomination created in the late 80's/early 90's as the new "flagship" car for Lincoln when the Continental nameplate was affixed to some downsized piece-of-shit.

Carry on.

Winfield is terribly underrated. The man killed a pigeon with a baseball from 50 ft away.

That is a center fielder with a gun.

So, wait! I think what Penske is saying then is that ppnyc is really Hank's sock! Is that right?

Wow. Props to Penske for figuring that out.

And to Hank for getting us all worked up, and collaborating with TM and all.

Excellent. We've all been FBPunk'd.

Chevy didn't make a 327 in '55, the 327 didn't come out till '63. And it wasn't offered in the Bel Air with a four-barrel carb till '64. However, in 1964, the correct ignition timing would be four degrees before top-dead-center.

What's more, positraction was not available on the '64 Buick Skylark. [Positraction is] a limited slip differential which distributes power equally to both the right and left tires. The '64 Skylark had a regular differential, which, anyone who's been stuck in the mud in Alabama knows, you step on the gas, one tire spins, the other tire does nothing.

You sound like that court scene in "My cousin Vinnie" with Marisa Tomei.
