I think I am a hijacker of my own thread...my twin, who has a C3 Vette with all the mods, called me Friday, and told me of wheels and exhaust I should do...I am totally confused...I thought my Vette looked fine being stock...guess, I gotta do stuff to the Vette...open for suggestions.

Sorry Judy. I couldn't resist. Do what makes you feel good. A very wise man often reminds me, "When you're dead ... you're dead for a long time". Look, research, look again and do it! I thought I would keep it stock when I got it too ... look what I did to my wheels and rotors last week ...


Jeez us... didn't mean to start WW3 with that.

You're carrying it too far. Besides, you can't stop life from happening. You'll learn as you get older.

Carrying it too far? If anything you're not carrying it far enough.

It has nothing to do with whether you can stop life from happening. It's a matter of respect, what to laugh at and what not.

And obviously you don't respect what is actually occuring in these photos. So life happens and people are kiddnapped, you somehow find that funny just because you can make a play on words?

In this photo specifically a man is being held against his will, ok fine.

The reality of it is what you dont see, him being brutally murdered with a hacksaw, which is what will follow these so called "hilarious kidnappings."

How would you feel if it was a loved being dragged off? would you still be laughing? No, of course not because then you'd be forced to understand the reality of the situation.

This kind of thinking upsets me, you see a picture or something on TV and equate it to be fictional. Something you can laugh at, something not real and off in a far away place.

*sorry for stealing the direction of the tread for a moment*

Rather than discuss political correctness on this thread, let's talk about the ROCK SHRIMP LUNCH SPECIAL at Dixie Crossroads!!
