Ferrari Mailing List: Re: OFF TOPIC !!! - RE: Official Rifle Cartridge of the Ferrari List

[red5hilser (red5hilser]

Hey Mike: By my count, you owe me .20c for using my TM'd word 'Shitbox' twice. 
You can just add it to your Christmas charity gifts and we'll call it even. I 
see that you also used the word 'Clyde' twice. If you would have used my TM'd 
'cLyDe,' it would have been .40c. Be careful ...

Merry Christmas and Happy Chanukah, yer pal Ferrari Bubba?

Dennis,

I am shocked that you could ask the question?  Of course we (the list) are
that sad...  
As a Long time lurker and seldom poster (sold my "shitbox" 348 many years
ago and now drive a "shitbox" M3 and am debating picking up a Lotus Elise).
What makes the list really great (compared to some car nut lists) are the
annual discussions on guns, watches, home theater, TIVO hacking, bid
sniping, and of course the commentary from Clyde (every list needs a Clyde)
and a few others.  I mean discussions about racing, brake pads, interesting
places to drive, places to get decent work done on your car and the best
engine oil for a water cooled vs air cooled engine are all well and good,
but really how much do you need to know about engine oil?

The list is "dying" for other reasons.  These likely include an aging list
population (personally with 2 kids now, and no free time, the idea of
sticking an F car in my garage and not driving it doesn't appeal any more
than if I did drive it and had to give up half my stuff) and a lack of new
owners who know how to use the internet (anyone see Lance Briggs Murcielago
on I94?, Do you think he will pick up a Ferrari to replace the Lambo?).

Lewis Hamilton's bit on Top Gear was fantastic.  Loved how he was singing a
bit while driving and some of his other comments "54 mph!  That is crap".
The GT-R is a boat, 3900 lbs?  It is hugely overweight, and if I wanted to
drive a video game I would drive a video game.   

BR,
Mike

Really, are we this sad?  Are we going to see lengthy dissertations from
surely-duly-accredited-authorities on why such-and-such a caliber is
better/worse instead of talking about, oh, I don't know:  Top Gear has a
review of the Scuderia v Nissan GT-R, Lewis Hamilton tries to beat the Stig,
Schumacher blows off Massa's wedding, and this is what we're reduced to?  

No wonder why this list is dying.
