I'm just saying that it's out there, not that anyone likes it.

I choose not to participate in drama and consider it an obligation to point it out when I see it. I just don't know, but it seems like the forum is kind of sliding a bit downhill lately. Does anyone else sense this? Maybe it''s me as I am in a bit of a funk the past month or so. Perhaps it is age creeping up on me. Maybe it's the nagging feeling that I am not doing what I am supposed to be doing with my life. I dunno.

Anyway -- this place is ours. It is too bad people who are excellent contributors leave.

This is the main thread I participate in, just because of the cool people

I partly

with Mr.onzedge.

However, I see this thread is more diversify than before and have more participates than the old one.

More people, more different topics.

I never used to chat with Mr.Isamu, Mr.Nismo89, Mr.shado, Mr.Davey and Mr.xwChris

as much before... I actually make some new buds in here, so I think it is a good thing. But it does take some time to adjust (maybe?)

It's sad to see Mr.kenchan has left, I believe many of us still feel it's a lost and sad, however, it is his choice, we have this new place now, which is the same as the old one if not better, and if he, or any individual still choose not to come back... I feel bad but again, this is their choice.

I look at this 'place' as a platform which the Mods allow the most freedom among all the threads, and I cherish it.

Also, we used to discuss both Z related and non-related stuffs in the same thread, now it is kind of divided into two, although we have extreme freedom in here, I can see it still affect our posting a little bit.

It seems to come and go in waves. I hope it doesn't get too much worse. As it stands tho, I'm still hanging in there!

Well stated, my friend.

(PS. I knew that's what you meant)

Luckily, selling the Z is still not on the table

Those suby's sell like hotcakes up north! EVERYONE pretty much seems to drive 'em!

Started this morning with a quick wipe down, I'm such an Auto finesse whore

Ready and waiting,

Lots of well behaved driving. Long weekend = lots of PoPo

Stopped for lunch at a small place called Dougalls right on the water. It was a little windy outside but good otherwise. The food was so-so and the beer was

Wind & Sail dark ale

Then we took the long way home, lots more Popo action. And filled up the tank with 94 octane

I hope everyone else is having a good weekend, stay safe

Mr. GaleForce -- I would stop using that Auto Finesse stuff if I were you. I looks like it turned your rocker panels all black.

I just need to use more of it on the other panels so I can get one colour. Is flat black still in?

Also -- and pay attention please -- I was admiring your food photos, but there is something amiss and I could not put my finger on it until just now. Where is the poutine?

Dang, if I lived in Canada, I would eat that stuff around the clock. I would make it my mission in life to try every version -- to find the ultimate. I would seek out the most obscure restaurants in the smallest hamlets in faraway provinces just to sample their poutine fare. I would start a cable TV program and invite poutine chefs from all around to come in and ply me with their poutine wares and regale us with heroic stories of poutine across the ages. I would start blogs and chat rooms -- all focused on poutine. I would go before the legislature in Ottawa and argue for National Poutine Appreciation day.

But...

I am stuck here in Sacramento, California, US -- with only a passable poutine so far at Krupos. I have that and my poutine dreams and I guess that is about it.

I just had a Poutine called "The Extreme" at our local Six Flags (LaRonde)

It had:

- Minced Meat (burger)
- Sausage

And of course the usual fries, curd cheese and gravy...oh man, good

That sounds like Eden!

The main problem we have is, Poutine is more popular in Quebec (the birth place of poutine)... The rest of Canada is dead to Quebec.... It would be a political nightmare, the French would set Montreal on fire, again. Yes, I know that doesn't make sense, it's just how they do things there. Having said that, I would happily sacrifice my life to help you achieve your dream.

*Cue A-Team music*
