Any time you involve a man and the car he wants and there is a wife or
girl friend involved you will see that look. I been married to the same
woman since 1969 so imagine the number of times I have seen that look.
:-) I gave up paying attention to it after I was married 2 years.

Some of the younger generation need to do a few years in the military to
learn what it means to be on time and to respect people. I did 4 years
in the Navy. Respect brings to me how I got my orange Hornet. Me and the
wife were supposed to go to a good friends son's birthday part one
saturday afternoon. His deceased father was my oldest son's god father.
The wife was pushing my buttons and I had had enough. I told her to go
by herself, it was a 6 block walk and it was summer. If I had gone with
her she might have said somthing to set me off and I would have made a
fool out of myself and ruined the kids party and disrespectful his
father so I stayed home by myself. 2:00 pm my long time AMC friend
calle d and asked if I still wanted the orange Hornet? I got screwed out
of it 4 years previous. I said yes. He picked me up in 15 min. I looked
at the car. My friend lent me the 500$ cash on the spot since it was
saturday and I don't have an ATM card. He borrowed a tow truck from his
boss, towed and  stored the car for me till got plates and insurance the
following friday. I paid him his 500$ back the following monday when the
bank opened. The wife came home at 6:00pm and I told her I bought the
orange car and all she did was make a face and walk away.

      I got just one word to say on this subject......RESPECT!! It
makes me really wonder if there is anyone anymore that has just not
only respect for others but even for themselves.. I dont blame ya Doc
for getting upset, I have the tendency to get kind of pissy when
someone says that they are going to do somthing at a certian time and
dont show up untill it is "their convience" I am proud to say that I
am "Old School" that was the way I was brought up. To respect
anothers property, to respect anothers feelings..whether you like or
dislike the person or not...we all deserve some sort of respect.
Respect me..you get respect right back...its th at simple. But
sometimes..its not and we have to bite our tounges hold back how we
feel or how that person made us feel. Because if we really did tell
people how we really feel at that certain time...we would be the BIG
A-HOLE!! NOT THEM!! Bill Lewiston Id.
