Hey Clyde, I have no experience with military wartime operations, and would be grateful for your perspective on the documentary "They shall not grow old" vs your experiences.

I hear ya

And you’ve never met me

I was being nice

Ask around I call it like I see it

I’ve mellowed over time

If someone tells me something nowadays I just let it fly unless he is way out there

I will call out Vietnam Veterans though

I catch quite a few “faux vets” of the Vietnam war

Something I just can’t figure out because we lost that one!

It’s easy to catch them since I’ve studied that war and my library is full of books on it

From both sides I might add

Those wanna bees are easy to catch when they can’t tell you what base and they say

I was all over, yea right

We busted a county commissioner who said he was a NAVY SEAL

This idiot was applying for a bigger position and submitted his doctored DD214 that had the NAVY CROSS on it and that triggered a red flag of someone who knew how to look that stuff up

And when it hit the papers about him being a SEAL the real SEALS got involved

And he had to resign

Tell me your a green berets but not a seal those guys know each other from birth!

Okay, there is one big thing that jumps out at me from your observation cLyDe.

The car shows that I regularly attend are not the exclusive, high $$$ judged events, but family-oriented display only. I have met over the years many nice people at these shows and, 99% of the time, they make general comments and ask the usual questions. There is, however, one or two people who have approached me, that to put it politically-correct, have mental health issues. Last year, as a great example, I helped out the organizer by manning the gate and this scruffy guy on a bike rode up and started hyper-rambling about his yacht was in dry-dock for repairs and he had his various exotic cars “in the shop” and couldn’t bring them out, yadda yadda yadda (meanwhile the empty pop cans are falling out of his well-used shopping bag). This is an extreme example, but there are many people who have these problems and are out-and-about with the rest of us. Its quite sad and it looks like it will get worse in the future.

Now, for this guy in particular, you said he attends Cavallino and wins platinum EVERY year? That’s easy enough to narrow down. Results are always posted in Cavallino magazine, so his name has gotta be in there. He said it has 10K on it? WAY too much for platinum-level scores. Those cars have four, and sometimes three digits on the odometer. Scoring is so tight nowadays, you can’t afford to put that much mileage on it without causing some kind of point-deducting “damage”. Even those people are OCD about service intervals and have the required three-year interval belt changes done to, you know, preserve the resale value on it. First time in 20 years he had the service done?...

I think he forgot to take his pills that morning.

Subject: [Ferrari] I finally met one

Well I heard they existed, you know like big foot, nice North Korean border guards

I am at the local Ferrari meet, plenty of cars a nice mix, mostly 8 cyl cars just 2 real Ferrari’s you know 12 cyl cars, anyway

With my less than platinum car(107K plus miles), yes I know she is a whore, but she is mine!

And this guy comes up to me, he was huge, he could have been a linebacker on any football team, and he says I have one just like yours.

I say really, where is it, he said he was going to bring it but I might rain!

Now there was a forecast of light showers but that was busted early on.

And there wasn’t a cloud between Atlanta and Chicago, and I said you know the car has wipers, right?

And he said “Well I show my car and it has only 10k miles on it and it wins platinum every year at Cav”

And then he goes on to tell me how he bought it new paid $225k etc etc

Took the front fog lamps off to clean the inside of the lamps!

Yes Mildred, and painted the wheel wells!

I am saying to myself, so this is what these people look like, I never knew!

Nice guy but, really, I mean please, anyway I politely eased away and lit a cigar to reflect on this encounter, with THEM!!!!

There were some kids looking at all the cars and when they are around I always let them in my car and take pictures.

This guy saw that, and I was looking around for a defibrillator, since I thought he was going to have a heart attack!

What a waste, but it takes all types right ? Or is it just me?

He told me the car had its first service in 20 plus years.

Want to bet the shocks are shot?

Wanna bet his brain is shot?

Gotta go

Be careful out there!

BaT ( bring a trailer) pricing is indicative of what’s happening ( except among the 6 speed cars, those guys are still on a heroin drip)

The prices there are basically what you will get from a dealer if you tried to sell your car

Only caveat is don’t comment badly on any car or you will be banned like myself and Rick!
