My dad bought me my first car. I was living in Cincinnatio Ohio, going to school where I needed car to commute. The 11 year old car cost my dad $100.; it was a 1954 Ford, 4 door sedan, torquoise colour with orange polka dots all over it. Since I could not afford a nice new 'professional' paint job and my mom insisted I do something before I could drive the thing, I went out and with her help, we brush painted black everything except the roof.
The roof, we took paint thinner and managed to remove the orange polka dot paint.
So EPYON, my unhappy friend, you don't know how lucky you are.
I can say the same thing about difficulty really appreciating how lucky we all are but boy am I happy now just being fortunate enough to own the Xfire and other vehicles we have.
