This is true, but sadly you seem to attract Kiwis and New Yawk mailmen.

My wife wants me to get a Mini van!! "No way i said you drive a mini van, i need a sport sedan!!"

not sure what I will get when the time comes, probable a mini van :-(

Brian, my wife wanted to get a minivan before my little one was born. Since to me, driving a minivan is like saying you've given up on life, I stood my ground and convinced her a station wagon was the route to go. Now, she LOVES our V6 Passat wagon.

If you've got a 5-series, why not look at an Audi Avant, or an old body style bimmer wagon.

What do you mean it's like you have given up on life? If you drive one, you have given up on life!

I was trying to be diplomatic.

It remindes me of that Seinfeld episode where George starts wearing sweats all the time. If you want to be comfortable all the time, you've given up on life.

However, as a parent, I can see that if you have two or more kids, how a minivan could be handy... so long as your second car is a sports sedan .

Not to mention the five lbs. you lost when you shaved your head. Just think, if you were to shave your arms you be end up light enough to fit into your old high school uniforms

Seriously though,that takes alot of will power, my friend Keep up the good work

Truth be known... Here was JJ's first attempt at his car-shot...



After a bit of shoo-ing... JJ finally got the shot he wanted.
