Okay, since most people seem offended by my first post in this thread, then I apologize for disagreeing with anybody.

Andrew, welcome to the site. I wish you the best of luck finding an SVX in good shape, of course.

Oh, I almost forgot...

I always pictured cube as an old man too since the yahoo days- until I met him at the 10th meet. I was shocked to see a 20 something guy before me introduced as mr pockets. I still have a hard time getting over that - kind of like how its about impossible to read "calmone" and pronounce it calm-one in my head and not cal-moan.

almost forgot - better put in a smiley face

Significant Technical Input
I'd pay good money to be an old man in a young body. For at least thirty minutes, anyway. (and no, those smilies aren't forced, they're the real thing)

Beav,

An "old" man usually doesn't last 30 minutes in a sweet young body, no matter how much money he pays her.


Good Luck.

I made that statement because most of the SVXs that I have seen for sale in my area over the last 3 years have had tranny problems. Not all, but most.


Sorry if that striked you as offensive.

It did not strike me as offensive, Andrew. I was simply disagreeing. Most people here have a hard time understanding that you can disagree with somebody and not be offended.

LOL One of the fun things about this new age of "knowing" people strictly online. Sometimes meeting them in person can be interesting. There's a member in the northwest area that is a female (I won't say who because she likes to keep it ambiguous for whatever reason) but none of us knew until she showed up at one of our meets. We were all waiting around for "that *** guy" to show up before we could drive, and then even when she showed up we were still saying we were waiting for one more guy until we finally figured out it was her.

I hope to meet many more of you someday, but until then, and maybe even after, I will always picture you, Matt, as Beavis!

I totally agree on the calmone thing too. Even after we finally heard the explaination on that handle and how to say it, I still can't help but picture it the other way every time I read it.

Calm1?

You guys .....
You guys ....

There was I [me?] thinking that handle was kal-moan-eh.

Must be Italian or Sicilian in my blood.

Come to think of it, Cam4 would be more allusive, in a Subaru sense.


You guys...

That was different - I wasn't offended, I was annoyed.

As for 'Mr. Pockets,' I thought of it in the shower one day and it made me laugh.

Any greeting from any member is considered official, here. But, thanks for the consideration of (perceived) protocol.

Sorry for the late welcome. I've been out of touch the past few days. Still trying to catch up on six pages of posts.

Welcome Moshkenstein!
