Don't forget to wave if you see me on the road......I'll be the one in the 00 Silver Vert.....with TxMomma on the plate. :wavey: :wavey:

By the way, Nice car you have there!:D

YD, I have to tell you, that is the worst "sucking up" I have ever seen! :thumbsdown:

She moved from Texas to Florida for you. Probably left family in Texas to try to set roots in sandy soil, not necessarily an easy pitch. So, understandably maybe you feel compelled to do a little sucking up for this? :thumbsup:

She let you go out and buy that yellow thing to satisfy a mid life crisis, even though she probably knew it was not the right thing to do. So, maybe a little sucking up is in order here. :yesnod:

She then let you convince her that the Stang was really not you :NoNo: , and that maybe it would be better suited for her son. I do have to admit YD, this was a good one and probably deserving of some additional sucking up. :thumbsup:

Then she let you go out and buy the right car for your mid life crisis. Ok, I can see some additional sucking up for this was needed. :yesnod:

Then she let you convince her that she needed her own Vette to tool around the Florida country side. TM you are good! In fact this was very similar to how I/we became a two Corvette family! :hurray:

But this should have put you over the top!

Remember the "Man Law" ...at least a few that jump off the top of my head.

1. Never suck up in public.
2. Never send her flowers for no reason.
3. Never send her flowers when you can pick them up at the cemetary on the ride home.
4. Never give her a box of chocolates for no reason.
5. Never give her a box of chocolates unless she is on a diet.
6. Never give her a box of chocolates that don't have at least three of them bitten into.
7. Never get on the dance floor with her unless she has threaten to cut you off for the rest of your life.
8. But whatever you don't do, always buy her whatever Corvette she wants! It will provide you with the dispensation that you will need for items one through seven above, and you get to play with it too.
9. Lastly, remember, her Corvette will never have a headache. :lmao: :rofl1:
 
I'll keep it short.

:wavey: I really enjoyed reading your post Rich427 and found it funny:rofl1: .

We met while we were both in the Navy. I told my mom i'd marry a foreigner, guess TX quailifies?:D
We moved to Tx. right out of the Navy, to Her home town where things were rough. $ wise for many years. (Note: she had no objection moving to Buffalo, my hometown).

We headed to Fl (No arm twisting I might add) to try and get something started for ourselves, and are finally doing well enough to hold our heads up high. Funny, those people who wouldn't have given us the time of day years ago, all seem to have watches now.
:rolleyes:

By the way...
I do believe 2Vettes is a husband and wife team though. Now whether they're under the same account on this forum, I don't know.

Hey Ray
Yes, Robert and I are a 2 vette family but he is not on this forum. So, I think that officially makes you and Angel our first husband and wife team unless there is another couple here I don't know of.
Congrats!! :thumbsup:

Texas? ...Buffalo? ...Florida? This isn't even a contest! (I hope Momma is not looking!) To be honest, I have been to Texas and Buffalo a few times but not enough to draw any real opinions.

But I will say that I got stuck in Rochester, just up the road from Buffalo, one time. It was in the early '70s and I had just gotten out of the Army and was heading up to that area to help my company with some sales issues. I got to Syracuse and got on the Parkway (?) toward Rochester. When I stopped at the toll both there was a board on the side of it that said blizzard conditions, hazardous driving. I looked around and it was bright and sunny but it had a few inches of snow on the ground. So, I figured it was an old message. Damn was I wrong. By the time I got off of the on ramp onto the parkway, the sun disappeared and the snow started coming down. Damnest thing I ever saw! Fortunately, I got to my hotel in Rochester where I proceeded to spend the next four days in the lobby of the hotel. Not a thing was moving. By the time they got the streets cleaned, I headed back to Maryland and have never gone back. I don't care what they say about hurricanes, I am not dealing with that anymore. This is our last winter up north and then we will be down there with you guys full time!

Anyway, welcome to both of you to this great group of people. And yes, as 2Vettes indicated, she does have a great guy, but Robert would rather play with his Bowling Green vert than get on here with us. Gee, I am not sure who is wiser?!?!? :shrug01:
