Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

Wow, this is all so completely unexpected.

[pulls speech from tux]

Thanks KP and everyone for the lovely pictures. I haven’t actually worn a tux since my prom. It had a plum cumberbun and matched my girlfriend’s hand sewn dress. (Theme: Heaven. Theme song: Bryan Adams –Heaven)

That reminds me, A few weeks before the prom we went out and “parked” at Lion’s Park behind the loop road (you know the place) and cops came and shone flashlights on us until we dressed and drove away.

Anyway, where was I? Oh yes – the prom. We didn’t rent a limo, I drove my 1984 clapped out Ford Tempo. It was a pretty sweet ride – but looked out of place pulling up into the hotel where the dance was actually held. The valet kind of sneered at me as he took the keys. I don’t remember much about the rest of the night …

All those moments – not that they were great moments - are gone. But at least every single thing I’ve ever said on VideoSift is here forever. (you were wondering how I’d bring it around, right? Bam! Toastmasters, baby!) Outside of my fab family – videosift is my raison d'être, and I vow to you that it will never die. (unless we run out of money)

So thanks to everyone who continues to make this community flourish, grow and feed my enormous ego. Thanks also to my compatriot Lucky and my tolerant family.

I've had two 1991 Ford Tempos, both of which died horrible deaths. I bought the first one because it was my first car and I didn't know any better. I'm not quite sure why I bought the second one, as the first one should have taught me a lesson.

In between those two I had a 1990 Geo Metro, but it was a great car. I filled up the tank for about ten dollars and drove it forever.

I haven't had a car for five years, and I had great timing, since I stopped driving at the onset of the invasion of Iraq. When I stopped driving, gas here was 99 cents per gallon, and now it's over four dollars.

Holy hell, this reminds me of my friend's car back in high school. It was a Ford Tempo and it had an AM radio with about 10 watts RMS of power and speakers that could handle about 8 W. We would tune it to easy listening stations and crank the volume to maximum. Certain songs, especially from Ann Murray, sounded like heavy metal.
