The colors of Easter! How timely and at least I can make out the words now.

Someone who knows him should write to Eggman and have him take a look! Maybe he'll be inspired to rejoin the world.

Can this board have something like categories? That would be nice, because I don't just join in on everything, and I don't want to be all PC like most places demand.

There's no edge anymore, at least not anyplace I look. I do better reading letters to the editor at the Pleasant Pond News than on modern message boards, because the people in Pleasant Pond say what they think. All the time.

We need categories like "Why Plymouth is a heck of a name for a rock, but a car? It's a heck of a name for a rock"

By the same token, we could have one that goes, "Quantum is a great name for a story, a terrific name for a scientific theory, but a bad name for a wimpy five-cylinder car."

How about "Cars I want", and "Cars I wish I'd owned?"

There is always, "Why doesn't write more, faster, better, all of the above?"

This could be the place again, like it once was, where people felt free from PC, deliberately stepped on toes, and had a whale of a good time.

There's an election going on in the US, and it's down to three good candidates, two democrats and one republican. Each of them have qualities I find alluring, and each takes positions that I don't particularly agree with, but they're all credible, and hopefully far better than what we have now.

There are also new car announcements, which are viscerally more exciting than politics, but ... oh, Hell. They're more important than politics, too.

I want, in the worst way, a Cadillac CTS (the next letter should be huge, but I don't know how) V! < (capital V, that should be a foot tall at least. This car is IMPORTANT)

I can tell you that the CTS-V is glossy and gutsy, and it's just the AMERICAN car that my own father would have lusted after when I was a little boy, and the one I love as a bigger boy.

That's my ink. Anyone else?
