Ah, you don't know what the Main Line is? Shame.

Please enlighten me. If it's around here I probably know about it but have never heard it called that?

It's a little more towards Philadelphia around Berwyn, Paoli, Wayne...

Basically it's 90 pound women in Escalades putting on make up and talking on the phone on route 30. It's like signing a death warrant going on 30 at rush hour.

thers a major gas crisis here right now, the esso and race trac are both having new tanks installed, and the only diesel and gas pumps (1 nozzle each) just went bust because of the overuse, nearest gas station is a UFA 10 minutes away, and thats hidden in the back of a even smaller little hick town, so the only people that use it are locals- highway traffic is screwed.

as for more or less cars on the road, seems pretty much the same- but that could be because im seeing more at one time than before, since all the truck traffic is going slower to save fuel, and the roads i travel most frequently have very few passing areas.

I'll take your word for it. My father works in Paoli and I've heard some stories from him. I stay away from the whole 422,202,476 area unless I'm getting a new suit at Brooks Brothers in King of Prussia.

130+?(speedometer was pegged) in a 69 GTO down the jersey turnpike at 3am. ~$3.70 for gas, might as well make it worth it.

lol, and I love it! Had an suv but got the caravan because I needed to seat more. It actually works better as a utility vehicle than my suv. When I take the seats out I can lay 4x8 sheets of plywood or sheetrock flat. My brother gave me a projection screen tv(huge), no problem. Dressers, beds, you name it.

When we hit the drive-in, I back into the parking space and lift the hatch, reverse the back bench and take out the two captains chairs and place them on the ground at the rear. It's great, i'll never go back to an suv.

What I can't figure out is how you manage to work the calculator while shaking your finger in a stern manner.

That's not his finger.

Hmmm while I scoff at a man who rides around on an island on a scooter, because nanny gubbmint won't let him have anything bigger.

I admire his dexterity in operating a calculator in that manner.

Make sure he doesn't wave that thing around too much: someone could get pregnant.

If it ain't a finger, why's it got a nail?!

Curval · « **Reply #42 on:** September 29, 2005, 05:42:08 AM »

Strangely when lazs wants to go shooting he doesn't go to a mall and set up targets. He goes to a garbage dump or a range. Why?

Pei..no danger of that anymore.

Pooh21 · « **Reply #43 on:** September 29, 2005, 06:01:52 AM »

maybe cause he is responsible and doesnt want to hit anything he don't want to hit downrange I guess.

I mean what kind of maniac would shoot paper or even metal targets in an uncontrollable enviroment like the mall?

dang get back on yer scooter and say "meep-meep"
edit: i bet you feel like driving 40kph through School Zones?

But...but...it's lazs' fun we are talking about. Shouldn't he be free to have fun wherever he likes? He could just wait until the coast is clear before pulling the trigger, surley?

If he is so "responsible" with guns...why not with cars? He has cited many many statistics on the deadly nature of vehicles and used that to back up his gun theories...ala, cars kill far more people than guns so shouldn't they be banned? Reckless driving is what kills and maims more people than guns right?

Hypocracy and selfishness at its finest evidenced in this thread.

Well done lazs.
