Going home from work yesterday I was at a stop light when a Corvette pulled beside my Z. For some reason he had to rev his engine several times and for a moment I thought I was going to see something out of a You Tube crash compilation video when he took off. Three lanes of traffic, in front and behind.

Had a corny poetic moment this morning...

I look outside and what do I see?
A missing lug nut annoying me.
Lug nut, lug nut where could you be?
Somewhere in the street, rolling free.
Roll on sweet lug, till you are complete.
If I see you again, I'll lock you in the basement for leaving me

Default I spent the day without my Z

It was in the shop getting some gashes taken out of the wheels....got too close to the curb when parking . ...Whatever happened to those curb guards they had on cars a few years ago?

I was given a Rogue for the day..exact opposite of the the Z in every way...a really great product for those in the market for that kind of vehicle

Got the car back and the wheels look like new..

I had this done last year and no more than three days later I gashed the wheel driving out of my own garage! Will be more careful this time!

Well I had a 4-5 yr old Camry LE (4 banger) follow me through a yellow light (left turn through an intersection), but it was solid red the whole way through for him. He then proceeded to go 85 or so in a 40 mph zone so he could cut in front of me and race to the next intersection less than a 1/4 mile away!

There's funny and then there's conservative, family sedans going redline to try and prove their manhood. Now that was really funny.
