I teared up when I saw Echo in the showroom floor all cleaned up and ready for me. The sales staff still tell that story to people... Blush

But no, money cannot buy happiness, in general...

Maybe not. But it will buy me a Porsche so I can pull up next to it Wink

Well, what I meant was, crying in your Ferrari or Porche may having nothing to do with the car.

Just heard a good one...

A woman gave me her number once. It was the square root of negative one. I said, "You're being irrational."

and

They should release Groundhog Day again but call it Groundhog Day II.

I like your irrational joke. I'm sharing that with the math chair. Nice.

So I decided to use it and build a Time Travel Vehicle. I found the DeLorean car to be too expensive so instead I used a 1992 Toyota Previa. This looks more like a time machine than a DeLorean anyway. I put it all together and got it working pretty good, but not perfectly.

I am able to travel back in time to almost any year. The trouble is I cannot stay for very long. After a few minutes the Previa will start to hum and distort in appearance, which means it is about to return to the present. So I had better be in it or be stranded. So I can go back but have to stay near the vehicle. So far I have been to the years 1854 and 1940, but ended up only in a random location and wasn't able to see much. Time away averaged about 5 minutes. I would like to be able to witness some historical events but that will need some work to be able to do that.

2112!
I am also able to go into the future, but this allows for even less time before having to return, sometimes less than a minute. But I could not help myself, I had to see the year 2112! So I set the dial and held my breath. It worked and I arrived, and I hurried out of the vehicle to get a quick look around. I had also brought my camera so I could get a picture.

It was dark, and I immediately saw this strange creature hurrying towards me, and it seemed to be quite upset. It looked like a human but I couldn't tell if it was a man or a woman. Maybe there is no gender in the future? I snapped a quick picture and jumped back into the Previa to drive away to safety. I drove about a hundred feet and the van hummed and returned to the present. I was shocked by what I had seen but I was safe.

But of course I have the picture, and I will share it with you now. But I'm warning you the future is not pretty, so be prepared before you click.

(Inspired by forum friend Ice Cold)

Rey, 2112 is definitely a strange period for fashion. Looks like an androgenous football player from the 1920's....or something along those lines. Big Grin

My buddy in Florida sent me this one this morning...no offense to anyone from Arkansas!

Arakansas Redneck: "Pharmacist, let me have a 12 pack of condoms please!"

Pharmacist: "Would you like a bag for these?"

Arkansas Redneck: "Heck no, my sister ain't THAT ugly"! Tongue

And Rey, my Dad retired from Burroughs, he may have a spare one laying around!
