Re: [BaadAssGremlins] Re: AMC the black spiderman, (car show judging)

There are very very few judged car shows around here. Maybe the all Ford shows are. Most are just they send their wives out or the club that puts on the show goes out and picks the car.Hell there is one that is put on by a school and they send the kids out. A lot give out trophies to the big three. Ford, GM and Mopar. The two trophies and the plaque that I have received in the last 14 years were just give me's. Don't get me wrong I am glad to have them but I really didn't win them. The first was at an animal cruse. They had trophies for the big three. The only mopar there was a Viper but he left before the trophies were awarded so they gave it to me since I was the closest thing to a mopar. The second one was a owners pick thing. When you register that gave you a sheet and was told to pick your top 10 choices. They had about a 100 trophies for 120 cars. I probably wouldn't have gotten that one but the guy's wife that I went with knew about 80% of the people there so we both got trophies. I felt sorry for the 20 cars that didn't get one. The plaque I got was at a show that had a couple of hundred cars there and they gave out 25 of them. They had one guy to pick the best 25. I was far from one of the best 25 cars there but the guy loved Gremlins. A couple of weeks before I was stopped for a train and the same guy had gotten out of his truck to look at my Gremlin. When he got to my car he reminded me of what he had done and then he said I am sure I am going to make some people mad but listen when they announce the numbers I bet you hear yours. Even at the big one in the park they tell you the 70 members in the club are going to pick the cars they like. Then they tell you if you want to be judge go to the Carl Casper car show. One year a guy who had taken best of show at the Carl Casper car showed up and he didn't win a thing. I guess if I had a really nice car I would get upset if I didn't win trophies but I know what I have and go to enjoy myself. That is why I mostly go to cruises where they isn't any trophies or very few and the admission is free. The three or four paid shows I go to I just write the 10 to 25 dollar entrance fee off as a donation.

Frank & Bart....Agreed below.......years ago I was invited to a open car show mixed make
at Sharpstown Mall, it was for the new introduction of "Red" a new perfume from Macys.
Only RED CARS were invited so I somehow got on their mailing list with my 68 AMX The Red
Death. There was about 50 red cars there neat to see, some rare iron, don't ever recall
ever seeing a red Dolorean but there was one, some 30s and 40s red convertibles, some
customs and low riders, so something for everyone. All participants got tshirts, free
little perfumes, (a small 1:64th scale Corvette with glass perfume under it, I still have
mine here in office) and radio station stuff (don't remember the lcoal radio station,
possibl 96.5FM) was fun until they awarded "trophys" it went to a guy who had literally
driven over from Mitsubushi dealership across hiway 59 in new Stealth or whatever that
Dodge cholo (slang for halfbreed) car. Must have had 3 miles on it.

Some of the people though this was going to be a real, judged, car show I guess. And some
let the sponsors have it, not that they deserved it but seems that the "car show with
prizes" was misrepresented in the flyer to begin with and some honestly thought that it
was a points, or actual judged show, not General Blojob from Hot 96.5 FM Radio Houston
walking around and pick his favorite 3 red cars.

So lots of disappointment that day, more unhappy people than happy, so a real Iraqi
Carbomb Show, except for the salesman who drove over the red Mitsubeater thing,a nd 2nd
and 3rd got gift certificates.

here are some reviews of Red perfume:

off fragrancenet.com site, looks to be made by Giorgio of Beverly Hills. Maybe I'll spash
some of this sample on to cover up smell of 30 weight while I work on my Pierre Cardin
Javelin. Or use it to kill the bedbugs in my Oleg Cassin Matador. Or splash some in back
seat of my Gucci wagon to cover up the, uh, stains.

Bart, that explains some of what I saw in one of the Spiderman movies a few weeks ago late
at night when Spiderman rang some pipes or bells and freaked out Venom of which he was no
match for.

Subject: Hmm... I think he's on something to (not "onto" something!). IF they had
audience voting or just arbitrary judging then he does have a point
though it wasn't explained very well. In those cases it becomes a
popularity contest, and AMC is the least popular make so will get the
fewest votes unless the car is extraordinary in some way. such as a very
well done custom.

Bart commented:
I woulda told that F'r to go back to his moms Basement! what a d bag
sh*tbrick he is. Eddie Brock became Venom when the Alien symbiote was finally
removed from Peter"puffer" Parker when he went into a bell tower and the sound
of the bell freaked it out enough to come off him. It later found and
angry Eddie Brock because of Cockmaster Parkers always getting the story first
and everyones darling found it and they were a match made in hell! if you
read the comic most of the time Brock/Venom beat 7 shades of sh*t outta
Parkr/Spidey every chance he got.
