Default Addiction

I finally figured out how to log in, since I forgot my first log in and had to do it all over again.
I can't tell all of you how much I enjoy the forums and all the information you have all contributed to this forum.
Like my log in says, we are addicted to Corvettes. We presently own a 1978 Pace Car with 1900 miles (may be selling it), a 1990 ZR-1, and 1993 ZR-1 Ruby, a 1999 Pewter convertible and a 2000 Navy coupe.
I look forward each evening to reading the new posts on the forums. Thanks again. Sometimes I feel like I am insane with the cars we own but I know that there are others just like me and we are definately the "special ones"

Addiction? Addiction? Not me! I can sometimes go 7 or 8 minutes without thinking about Corvettes! (But not very often)

I went 30 years without a Corvette.
Had 4 Vettes between 18 & 22 years old.
Bought this one at 52 years old.

Guess what--I'm 18 years old again. Addicted, obsessed whatever its called.

My one neighbor said, "Wayne, how many times are you going to take apart that engine?"

The other neighbor said, "That looks like a bad investment, you always have to fix it, heh heh heh".

Of course, if they would mind their own business I'd be perfectly happy.
