fairlaner, just wondering why you haven't been in TOTM yet, or did I miss it?

You can see the progression in your pics,... rims, mirrors, fogs...

 

Having lived in Colorado for 12 years and now in SoCal for a little over a year and a half I really can say no one place is better. Everyplace you live has its drawbacks so I guess you have to live whrere you can tolerate the negatives. Living in Colorado the main thing for me was the long cold winters. On the positive side Colorado has decent weather 7 or 8 months out of the year, beautiful scenery, affordable homes, and no traffic (depending on where you live). In Socal the negatives are traffic, high home prices, and high taxes, but on the other hand the weather is unbeatable, beautiful scenery, tons to do, and more opportunity. You just have to weigh the differences and your preferences. Currently I'm contemplating moving back to Colorado because I miss the small town type feel and I want to own a home again. I can say we love California, but I'm starting to think that it's best just to visit once in a while. So I'm glad this topic has come up because I'm really on the fence.

 

I was in TOTM in Oct '09 ... pulled in approx 4% of the vote (after spending $132.7 million of my personal fortune campaigning )

Wow, somehow I missed that month.
Went back and read it, lots of drama. I had wondered what ever happened to Showya.

 

Well, I don't know what "TOTM" is, and I don't know if it was worth it, but I do know this:

Never, ever spend your own money on a campaign - of any type. You must always use OPM. Keep that acronym in your head. Learn it. Live it.

***** yourself out to special interests, sell your soul for laundered corporate funding, and most of all . . . smile and lie while you're doing it.

Want to see a perfect example of the idiocy of using YOM (your own money)? I give you Meg Whitman.

Using your own money demonstrates narcissism at a high level. It demonstrates irresponsibility. And most of all, it demonstrates desperation.

(By the way, when giving a speech, be it for fund raising, general campaigning, or pontificating policy, when making a point always group things in "three". For the best example of this style watch any speech by JFK).

So next time you campaign for this thing use OPM. Not only does it allow you to keep yours, but it weakens those who supported you so you can crush them once in power.

Once a month the site has a thread about a black truck with black rims and posts a picture of it and everybody else posts about it and votes for it.

Oh, and there are four other trucks too. I'm not to sure what that part is about.
TOTM is 'Truck Of The Month' about ten forums up above this one.

 

O.K., good to know. Thanks for the update. They didn't have this last time I frequented this place.

Now, just so I'm clear . . . it has to be black on black, and has to be a Ford. Yes? I guess this means that my current and my forthcoming SUV won't qualify for display as they are neither.

We need some sort of affirmative action program with this . . . oh, oh . . . oops. Now I did it.

 

You moved to the middle of nowhere....but the mindset of the Peoples Republic of Los Angeles is stuck in your head.......THAT WON'T FLY AROUND HERE BOY!
