Thin ice is no good for parking

This was the scene in Lake Geneva, WI today. Glad I never take my KR out on the ice!

Not only did the guy ignore the first sign, "Drive on ice at your own risk", but now's he ignoring the smaller sign, "No parking at any time"!

Well, at least I know Google is cataloging f150online.com! Type that in and you get a couple of hits directly from Lenny from some other thread from long ago...

Are you going to share with us what it means? Latin?

I remember it had to do with a boat. Since Cogito Ergo Sum said by Rene Descartes translates to "I think therefore, I am". We get "I think therefore, ________."

Absolutely....
profound philosophical thinking....

I think.......therefore I am !!
(Cogito Ergo Sum, from the Latin)

Then when I first came to the States visiting all these years ago...(Should've gone to New Zealand), noticed that one of your motor mags...can't think if it was MotorTrend or Car and Driver, had a monthly piece always entitled...

Cogito Ergo Zoom. (Go figure)

Then when I started boating seriously (Off shore power boats) it seemed appropriate to adopt my own version.

Cogito Ergo Splosh.

Up 'til yet I haven't sploshed !!!!








PS I STILL can't use smillies or bold or much else.

But then I'm a newcomer to this computing business....

ONLY BEEN DOING IT 30 YEARS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tried everything I can think of....short of hitting the confuser with a hammer.
