Default A little bit of irony

Since it was a bright sunny day today I decided to take the Vette for our lunch date. The place has nice wide parking spots and the lot is in plain view. Pulled in with lots of room on both sides and went in to eat. Upon leaving I did a double take. Parked right along side my pewter coupe was a pewter C5 vert. I haven't even seen another C5 in a month much less a pewter vert. And before anyone posts (pics?) I'm old school, my phone just makes calls, sorry.

All you needed was a pewter FRC alongside and the day would have been perfect.

Cool!

A suggestion though. Stop in any grocery store and get one of those single use cameras and put it in the glove compartment. Immediate pictures on scene are invaluable in case of an accident. We have one in all the cars just in case.

I'm like you; my phone is a phone, period and plan to stay that way. i don't text, take pictures, or have internet access with it. It's for when I actually need to talk to someone. I know, I'm weird, I'm trying to start a new trend.

YOU THINK YOUR WEIRD? I don't even own/have a cell phone or a credit card for that matter! My other daily driver [besides the Vette] is a 58 year old Chevy. My wife says I'm stuck in the past.
