Vexing Dilema
I was recently contacted via e-mail by Paunxatauney Phil
(famous Groundhog). He 's got an itch to get an SVX. He lives in that part of Pennsylvania that gets bad weather in winter. That's one of his main reasons to justify the SVX. His other main reason is the recent terrorist attacks on the USA. He realizes that as a national celebrity that he is a target. The SVX will provide him and his family with a lot more security and safety than his hole. He reasons that he can drive away from threats, stalkers and ground hog wannabes. In fact the National Guard has been authorized to patrol the site at Gobbler's Knob (Phil's home) when he come's out in 2 weeks to look for his shadow. His problem is his wife, Phat Phillomena. She wants him to get the new Outback VDC. She says that the Outback has enough room for their entire brood, plus it has heated seats so they could live in it all winter and give up the hole. She also says that the VDC has the new H-6 engine so it is almost as quick off the line as the SVX and she wont let him drive at the higher top speeds that the SVX is capable of. She says that the VDC has a better AWD sytem and a better audio system. But Phil has his heart set on an SVX and came to me for advice and arguments to sway his wife. Phil generally monitors this site so can everyone here help him. Thanks all - Phil's counting on us. If we help him, he promises to give us an early spring. Larry III PS: How's this for a thread to keep those posts coming. |

Yes, Larry has elevated boredom to an artform, but we must humor him, as dementia is not a laughing matter. Uhh... Larry, I think if Phil explains to Ms. Hoggy, that the SVX is the only vehicle that can be purchased with the Aredub Vermin Protection Package, she'll bend Phil's way knowing all her wandering offspring will be gently swept aside in the event of mammalian impact, versis being rendered into road pizza, should an Outback be the choice. Glad to be of help, Larry! Ron. (Lemme' outta this asylum).

Beav,
There are 3 statements that every man MUST know to stay out of trouble with women. They MUST be said in the proer sequence. 1) I love you. 2) I do. 3) Yes dear. Larry III PS: Also, never, never, answer this question. "Dear do you think this dress makes me look fat?" |

Maybe4 that's what I've been doing wrong, I always thought it was:
1) Where's my dinner? 2) Did you say something? 3) I'm going to the nudie bar. Beav |
