We have been over this before but I guess those fat cells in your head
prevented any of the information from sinking in. Ford makes a GT and
Mach 1 with solid rear ends because these cars were designed for
quarter mile drag racing. The Mustang Cobra has independent
suspension for people who like to drive on the tight curves of rural
roads. Unlike Europeon trash cars, most of which reside in your junk
yard, we have a choice of the kind of muscle car or sports car we want
to buy depending on what we want to do with it.

Really? How many Ford Tarus sedans could you miss on the road if you
threw a rock outside that South Wales junk yard full of rusty
Mercedes. Do you stupid ****ing limey ******s have any domestic car
companies left in Blighty outside of Bentley and Rolls? But the real
question here is why do you even care Nicky? About the only thing on
wheels you could squeeze your fat ass into is an ox cart and at that
it would take a team of Budweiser Clydesdales to get it in motion.

Chris, it's evident that you didn't spend much (if any) time in school, or
you'd know that historically when both Canada and the U.S. were being
settled, towns and cities were founded on the shores of major banks and
rivers. The fact that a large percentage of Canadians live so close to the
U.S. has more to do with "The Great Lakes" (Did you ever hear of The Great
Lakes Chris?) than a burning desire to live close to the U.S. border. Get
the connection Chris? No? Well let me spell it out for you Chris - it was
all about transportation! Duh!

First of all, that wasn't intended as an insult. Is not your name posted in
your NG I.D. as "Larry The Frog"? I didn't post that name, you did!

What truth was that Larry? Surely you aren't still sticking to the claim
that 90% of Canadians live within 10 miles of the border???!!! You are
indeed as dumb as a post! Is it so hard to admit that you are wrong?

That's probably your best move, Chief Petty Officer considering your
previous comments were, to be polite, "exaggerated claims".

Quoting CPO Jacobs: " After all the bombs are dropped and all the
missiles shot someone still has to go in and take possession with
boots on the ground. "

No one will bother to go in " with boots " Chief Petty Officer because
the whole place will be radiated. What would be the point?

As I suggested to you before, leave the details of global
strategic defense to the experts.

Very nice. Love the yellow '67 hardtop. This show had quite a
variety...a pair of '69 Mach 1's, a Saleen , several Fox body LX's,
plus some newer SN95's. And I thought I caught a glimpse of a
McLaren.

Now the crusty old **** thinks she knows more about the Chinese military
than someone from someone who worked in the military. Next, she'll argue
against Steven Hawking over elementary mathematics.
