    Something neat I discovered

    I was filing my personal property declaration and I noticed something I hadn't before.   The serial numbers on my Galaxies are just right at a hundred apart.   That means they probably could have rolled off the assembly line on the same day a few hours apart.   

    How neat is that?

    If multiple things can go wrong, the one that will go wrong will be the one that causes the most damage.

    Mustang pal of mine went to school with Rick Hendrick. He went to see him in Charlotte at his race shop.
    He has Corvettes 54 thru (I forget) with 0001 serial numbers! The first off the assembly line.
    Camaros too
    All it takes is cabbage...and lots uv-it !

    That, plus the build date on your convertible make for an interesting trio

    Money you enjoy wasting is NOT wasted money... unless your wife finds out.
