My parents used to have a Mustang II with a speedometer that went to 120
mph. Seeing as the Mustang II was a rebodied Pinto, and theirs was a
4-cyl. model, I think that was *wildly* optimistic.

Not really a confession, but: I saw a green Dodge Challenger today. The
hood-scoop was labeled "426 Hemi". Sounded like it, too.

My Daytona was also a 4-cylinder, and had a 140-MPH speedo...
and given its acceleration at 100 MPH, I'm sure it needed it.

I confess that I have shot former US President Gerald Ford on at least
two separate occasions, and that I plan to shoot him again this week.

...on video, for those Federal agents reading this and planning an
arrest. (You dolts!)

Re the remark about taxicabs...
I have been driving for lots of years, and it has actually improved my
so called driving skills.
I slept for 3 hours in Sandusky OH, near Lake Zebra Mussel.
The night before that, I spent 2 hours sleeping at a railroad yard
in Willard OH.
(I have been doing a lot of railroad orders, and being that they
are far away, and lots of driving does make me sleepy, I would rather
sack out for a couple o' hours in the van near the railyard than
risk killing someone on the highway.)
I make bad jokes while driving in my taxi. (What is the speed of light
in OH? 65 Mph). I still live in mortal fear of the Ohio Highway Patrol.
Not much else that I could confess that could be deemed "interesting".
I still drive my little rusty foriegn car. I recieved a check from
the "fix Jim's car fundraiser" on Mars that enabled me to repair my exhaust
system. The last e-mail from Sxtr was pretty strongly worded, so I went to
Findlay and got the job done there.
I wear t-shirts from obscure Ohio Universities. The most recent
acquisition was from the University of Findlay.
I was actually depressed that Notre Dame lost to Michigan, but have a
theory as to why... On Jan 1 of THIS YEAR, I stood next to the Stadium in
South Bend. I'm afraid I have cursed ND for the rest of the year. Sorry
about that.
I own 2 Ohio State T-Shirts. I plan to wear them next time I come to
Ann Arbor.
The worst pizza on the planet is Dominos.

re #86 - Findlay is a fine institution. And their hockey team got
screwed by the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference in their first year of
existence.

I love the "speed of light in Ohio" joke. :>
I had the exhaust fail in my Honda once, just ahead of the muffler. It
took about a week before I got it fixed. It was pretty hilarious. It
sounded like a rally car, complete with little backfire pops during
upshifts.
