On the way in this morning - beautiful sunny skies - Dynamic Mode on, of course, and triple-digit speeds (speed limit is per person, right?) and Foo Fighters (Wasting Light) playing at high (25+) volumes and my passenger, my beautiful wife, was trying to tell me something, I think, but I couldn't really hear her (I did hear something: just couldn't tell what it was)...so I continued on my blissful way. Strange, huh?

Anyone else experience this?

 

lol

 

You need to teach your wife in the use of semaphores. (See: Monty Python's Wuthering Heights...)

 

Respectfully, one does not [attempt to] teach ones' wife anything. One does, however, appreciate ones' wife's tolerance towards her husband. But I like your style, and your posts, DJS. And your car.

 

or Garret Morris news for the hearing impaired (SNL)


(I suppose she didn't expect the Spanish Inquisition ..........and nobody expects the Spanish Inquistion)

 

I usually just go faster until the only things she is saying is "%@&! SLOW DOWN!" or is too scared and just hanging on. Then all is right

 

I've heard those strange noises from the passenger seat too

 

I keep hearing "never again" anyone else have this problem?

 

Only as a Jew and in regards to the Holocaust. I know...not exactly the humorous response you were expecting. Sorry....first thing which came to mind.

What idiot started this stupid post/thread anyway????!!!

 

Better than 'Nevermore'...

 

Now you're talking. LOVE Edgar Allen Poe and saw a spectacular exhibition at the Morgan Library in NYC last year. Fascinating and illuminating.

And while this is clearly veering off topic and the OP, since I am the idiot who started this stupid post/thread in the first place...I've high-jacked my own.

 

Here in the Baltimore area, that would have been quite appropriate, quoting the Raven. I drive within a few feet of Edgar's grave every weekday.

 

Quoth the raven. (And a few feet?)

 

I love anaectdotes like this, sitting in the cockpit of a JaguarX152 magical things can and do happen. People do love the car!

 

I was quoting the Raven who was doing the quothing. (Right on the corner of W.Fayette and S.Greene)

 

Nice shot Lance, thank you for that (I was hoping you'd take a picture for me).

By the way, hit a nice open stretch of road yesterday on the drive home last night and reached...well...maybe it's best I don't say what I reached - with wife and dog as passengers - and no sounds of any kind were heard from the passenger seat.

 

I'd like to take full credit but it's a stock photo.

 

Fine. I'll give you half credit then, OK?

I still thank you for it.
