Let me guess. You took those pictures and posted so you could write the whole trip off as a business expense. "But sir, it was all a viral marketing tactic. Since gas went over 3 bucks a gallon, we got five %$%@ thousand SUV's on the lot."

BTW, this does explain how someone as hot as Jinx picked you. She gets to drive any cool car she wants as long as it has demo miles on it already.:D

"Ocean Size"

Wish I was ocean size
They cannot move you
No one tries
No one pulls you
Out from your hole
Like a tooth aching a jawbone...

I was made with a heart of stone
To be broken
With one hard blow
I've seen the ocean
Break on the shore
Come together with no harm done...

It ain't easy living...

I want to be
As deep
As the ocean
Mother ocean

Some people tell me
Home is in the sky
In the sky lives a spy
I want to be more like the ocean
No talking
All action...
No talking
All action...

lumberjim 09-20-2008 02:20 PM

Good thing I know the words by heart, or I wouldn't have understood a bit of it either!

So..this means you only get to drive the trade-ins?;)

Beautiful pictures of the horses. If I could have seen the phone number on that 'FOR SALE' sign, I might have been tempted to pick up the phone.

Elspode 09-21-2008 12:17 PM

Now *that's* what a Jeep is supposed to look like...all encrusted with dirt and mud and sand.

He only gets to take new cars in demo service... I did drive every Jeep he ever brought home when he worked there, but the Nissans that he drives now (for low gas milage) are mostly boring.

I went to the website and then started playing with mls searches, lol... ($800K - 1.5mil for what I'd like to have...)

I just learned the location of Rodanthe, from the film Nights In Rodanthe (a movie I am dying to see, call me a sap), is in the outer banks of North Carolina. Now I want to see it even more, assuming it was actually filmed on lacation there.

Sweet.

How did you guys end up vacationing there?

jinx 09-24-2008 12:10 PM

We had a few miserable vacations staying in hotel rooms at NJ and MD beaches, and then were invited by to OBX by a friend of my sister. We went as 3 families in 1 giant house twice and had a great time. Unfortunately, they haven't been able to go with us the past 2 times due to schedules/babies, but we enjoy it just as much or more on our own.

They did film the movie in Rodanthe, which we drove thru on our way to the Hatteras Light, but it's way south of where we stay up in Carova (north of Corolla) where the horses are and the roads aren't.

I'm bummed that we didn't get a chance to check out Roanoke Island, definitely on the agenda for next year.

*The white squiggle on the horse's back is a common marking, Some horses have a lot of them, looks pretty cool.
