being a Savoy Brown fan..I'd have to go with Raw Sienna & Other Shades
Of Brown.
Crayolas! How can one properly and intricately sign checks and
official statements/documents without using the handy little sharpener
on the back!
'Trons should have names like greyhounds and race horses IMHO, but you
know...I'm gonna go with "Lucky" for mine after the reply to the story
I told yesterday about the black ice & all...
Thanks!
At this point, I'll go OT and conclude with the names for my three
Datsun PU's:
'72 521 1600: Seldom tardy
'74 620 Bulletside: Anthem Of The Rising Sun
'79 620 Bulletside KC: Courage Of Lassie
At one time I used to have two cars: one was a rusty old dented but
reliable '73 Toyota Corona SW, and the other a nice clean '85 Chrysler
New Yorker sedan. The family called the '73 the shittymobile, and the
'85 the prettymobile. We all would decide to go somewhere...and the
kids would bolt out of the house and down the front walk out to the
sidewalk...and suddenly stop and ask what car we'd be taking:
"'shitty' or 'pretty'?" to the bewilderment of the pedestrians walking by.
(We eventually stopped shocking the neighbors by renaming them the
trashmobile and the flashmobile)
