Yeah, I really wouldn't know what to do with the cars personally. ---- the guy who owns them, and ---- the morality of stealing them; taking machines made to *perform* and ruining them by hiding them, or cutting them up or in some other way ruining them is reprehensible, IMO.

Still, if we found the owner, give his dumb ass a reality check. "Hi, I'm a grubby low-rent Redneck, and I found your topsecret harem purdy easy there, big fish. You might want to guard your perfectly good ---- a little better, because most other people who will hunt you down care as much about your car's being inviolate as I care about you as a person."

All I know is that if you have that many exotic cars in your garage you better have a track in your backyard to.

Re: I wish i invented the god damn barcode
 

i met the guy that invented the magnetic strip (i.e. for credit cards and such). He ain't rich rich, I met him at the casino, old fart was working for IBM (I think it was IBM) at the time and didn't get paid ---- squat. Well he was working for them so he really didn't have rights to the product anyways. He had the first magnetic strip card with him at the time too and was showing it off (you know like any old man that is somewhat useless would since it's his only real accomplishment in life). It was the first working prototype or something. I think for that project he was only paid a few hundred bucks, lol.... he got burned hardcore.

He probably only got that Elise titled by swapping a Honduh engine in it... and it might be turbo'd. You never know.

I met the guy whose granddad invented the plastic flip top, like on plastic ketchup bottles. He's never had to work a day in his life. Doug has two hobby shops (art/foundry type stuffs) and two houses, one located in Asheville and the other in Charleston. Pretty ------- nice guy for someone who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth... pretty ------- nice guy, no qualifiers, actually... I haven't seen him in 6-7 years, but he's the sort of guy I could bomb in on and he'd show me whatever he's working on these days and then invite me to lunch.
