Hello there, I had a computer back when newbies were m0e. I still look for the rubber ball under the mouse.

Assume I know nothing about computers, you might be right.

Start off simple, some Swedish Herrgårdsost, preferreably a fatter one with a little more age and therefore taste.

Slicer is a handle I used on a local chat board in the '90s, no cheese was harmed. It comes from Star Wars novels, a slicer slices codes and encryption.

Well, you know every second Mustang is black. Tough to keep clean and shiny. Are you the one who keeps yelling out to me when I have the top down?? Cool

Shocked
I should take the plate off next time I take some photos. I have got my problem down to once every ten days. Wax every two months, mist and wipe spray wax the months between. Clay bar every six months, and for the first time using a rubbing compound and polish with a dual action polisher. No, no OCD

Smile As I told you before, look at a black car's hood reflecting a bright light. The swirls, oh the horrors

Naaa, You are OCD. But seriously I have nothing but respect for someone who loves to do the work on something they really love themselves. That is the love of a true hobby.

I like to have a nice looking car. I learned that I was washing my car the wrong way, putting swirls into the paintwork. Swirls, scratches and water marks reduce the shine. Just clay barring and buffing in a wax did wonders.

That and my nephew was a no show on using his car as the first victim. Smile

Did not want to start a new thread. Installed Sequential Tail Lights today and a locking gas cap. Something like these ... they were on '60 era Shelby Mustangs. Thought with tinted tail lights they would be safer, and just damn well cool

Hey I am proud, of all the things about the look of my car (lowered, rims, etc) and the mods (loud) and creature comforts (Hurst shifter, push button start). Everything was the original owner. I have replaced the HID Zenon, added a radar detector that clips on the rear view morror stem, and added a iPod adapter to the stereo .... and killed the car Sad

When someone says, "Hey man nice car." I can take pride in it's shine, which is hard with black. Shows everything. And Now, the Sequential Tail Lights.

PS
Thanks, now I have the munchies.

You should drive over here and pick up some food on your way. Can I eat in your car? I leave lots of crumbs.
