My CF idols are the trolls with multiple user names that enter asking stupid questions, claiming to be broke but always installing new modifications. Thats what happens when you retire and have no-one in your life but your hand. You become...."The Internet Tough Guy" or Mr. Thailand
I'll buy..er, uh, find a replacement wife if I find myself old, retired and widowed. Wonder where I can get pointers on how to go about doing that?

Your Idle should be half that.
On the Harley Earl part. Zora stole his thunder. The first Corvette rolled out in 1953, Zora was not hired by GM until `53
