Mate you need a beer.

Hmmm. Finally is capitalized. Still related to this thread? That was over 2 years ago, but I remember grinning like an idiot at Napa's antics. (Pictures on page 3) :

another one bites the dust...

correction: was gorgeous.

she was a little rough and tumble but not too bad. photographed well and looked okay on film. but was really starting to show the bumps and bruises.

now she just looks like a pile of dog stink.

eff it. i don't have the time or energy to resto it all out, so i'll be rolling dirty for awhile. primer and banged out panels.

actually, i had a nice suit on.
the buttons on the cuff got knocked off and i tore a hole in the knee, but the rest was fine and dandy-- as was my parka, strangely enough.

but the ladies still didn't pay me no mind at the club after the fact... even with a limp and a tore up suit.
