RX8 COTY posters

Following the Rx8's unexpected ( ) win of the COTY award I asked my local newsagent if she had any of the wheels promo posters, she said no, but would try to get one for me.

Anyway, today she gave me 5.

I'm keeping two for myself. The rest I'll give away. First come first serve. As they are free of folded crease marks I'll be psoting them in appropriate packaging so the cost of P&H would be appreciated, or a $50 donation to a local childrens charity in lieu. I'd expect the receipt to be posted on the forum.

Pricer 1, Kiwi meat.........please PM me your address details.

RX-8 GT, L&L, I've got to decide on whether this offer extends over our shores or not.


Jax 8...........sorry you missed otut


Stay tuned.

When people offer me money for something or a gift, I usually refuse and ask them to donate toa childrens cancer carity instead. Why, I don't need the money, they do!

Often people don't go through with the donation, so now i ask for verification.

I referred a customer to a Mazda dealership to bu an Rx8. A gift was offered to me, I refused it and asked the dealer principle to donate to charity..........of course he didn't!

Dont worry about the poster .

Since the quality of those poster is poor i have decided to enlarge the picture of the cover of the wheels magazine and use top quality pothographic paper for my poster.

And i still feel you are using far to much laughing gas , youre post does not make sense as rx8gt is from indiana and i am from the gold coast , but who said that dentist were bright sparks anyway. ha ha ha .

Pot-hographic paper - Hahaha - that must be made from that stuff grown just south of the Gold Coast around Murwillimbah and Nimbin. ROFL!

And his post makes perfect sense to me.

Pricer01 - 1st
Kiwimeat - 2nd
RX8-GT - 3rd (Pending an address, decision)
L&L - 4th (Needs your address in case he decides not to send to Indiana).

Lock, Load, Ready, Fire/Shoot self in foot, Aim. You really know how to endear yourself to others!

I wish I had enough admin rights. I could temporarily change your sig to be "Diplomatic Ambassador"

All in good fun.

Cheers,
Hymee.

Hymee I think michael may be going through a "menopausal" type thing, first noticed it when he attacked you on the pricing of your cat back.

Michael, my gas is completely reversible without post hallucinagenic effects, don't know about what you're are smoking especially if you think you can make pothographic paper with it!

LOL!

Regarding hymees exhaust i was not attacking hymee i just wanted some reasoning to his decision as to the midpipe and the costing.

Some members like to try and take the **** out of me and other members at different times , hey thats fine we are all different with different abilities , talents etc .

I am not here to win points and be the most admired and liked forum member.

Hymee you can have the honour of being the most politicaly correct and upright standing Australian forum member.

I say things as i see them sometimes i may miss my mark but my aim is mostly fine by my standards , i please myself and to me thats important .

Some members need to be bendover merchants and keep quiet constantly trying to please everyone all of the time in order to feel good about themselves .

They try to show their wide knowledge and wisdom to everyone on a wide variate of topics hoping to gain acceptance and to be liked by others and admired .

My grammar spelling may not be 100% , however i am not a native born Australian and do speak 3 languages .

I am the one who has managed to get off the merrygoround living comfortably on the sunny leasurely Gold coast / Semi- Retired since i turned the age of 40 , so in some ways ready , fire aim has worked well for me . HA HA HA

Have a nice day
michael

"'Diplomatic Ambassodor " THAT HAS A NICE RING TO IT .HMMMM

By not endearing myself to some forum members at least i get lots off replies and feed back to my posts .

As long as people are talking about you wether it be good or bad its better than if they dont talk about you at all , at least the name LOCK & LOAD is heard wide and in far places AND HOPEFULLY NOT FORGOTTEN . HA HA HA

CHEERS

Unfortunately no one told the ELITE PROFESSIONALS That their degrees certificates /with or without distinctions are only as good as the people who use and invest wisely with their earnings .

I have a Real Estate Management / Bussinees Management Certificate, it took me 7 long years part-time to get it as i struggled to find the time to work and support myself .

I did not get Distinctions but was told that i was one of the worst student that the college had ever seen .

All my lecturers laughed at the tought of me starting my own Real estate bussiness , they told me that i needed more than$ 100,00 back in 1983 to even consider starting my bussiness .

I borrowed $6000 and started my bussiness , being the last and youngest kid on the real estate block amongst 14 already established real estate agents in my area of operation .

Whthin the 1st year of operating my bussines i was in the top 6 agencies in my area , they werent laughing now but were tryng everything to put me out of business , i was taken to the supreme court on a trumped up charge of defamation, i won the case.

Within 3 years i was in the top 3 agencies in my area having only 5 staff members against the 15 or so average in other offices , and after 12 years off hard work 15 hours of productive work a day and buying and selling properties , i managed to sell and walk away at 40 laughing all the way to the Goldcoast .

All the elite lecturers are still paying off their mortgages .ha ha ha

A Cetificate / Degree is great to have but if not used wisely is not enough paper to use to wipe your *** with .(Hymee and other forum members i hope your Degrees / Distinction/ Certificates comes with a extended piece of paper ) no offence meant .

Cheers
michael

Michael, I take my hat (or mask in the dental office) to you. It takes real guts to make an effort, the upside is what you make of it but the downside is what others make it.

One thing I have learnt is that a degree is not a licence to print money. I practice dentistry 4 days a week, 8.30 to 5.00. My colleagues who I have little to do with work 5 -5.5 days a week 10-12 hour days. My profession will not make me rich. I am also a part tie/full time sharemarket trader.....this earns me much more than dentistry does. There is also a small commercial property portfolio. I am also looking at starting an internet based business and I am in discussion with a friend to open a hospitality type business. Do you think I want to look down peples gobs all day..............?

I got a bachelor of arts degree in Drama in 1971 and master of arts degree in History in 1973.

They sure have helped me to breed and fatten juicier, more-succulent lambs and veal.

Where's the moderator to tell to get back on subject?

There are 1,000,000 stories in the great big world .........

Suffice to say, it's highly unlikely that any RX8 owner isn't a success story of some sort. We all have our achievements from the past and our aspirations for the future.

Whilst L&Ls story is inspiring, I much prefer the 'how I avoided being made into sushi by the Japanese underworld' story from a few months back ... and I'm still waiting for the DVD to be released!!!

Time to chill guys and enjoy of fruits of our labours!

Rob

Here I am.

AMG - Do you want me to close the thread? You got enough replies and backups?

Cheers,
Hymee.

BTW, perhaps should be in the lounge...

This fella (a Real Estate agent) went to the Dentist, and sat down in his chair. The dentist sat behind him and started to look down his gob, but started laughing histerically. After a few moments, he managed to pick himself up off the floor, and composed himself. The patient asked what was going on, and the dentist said not to worry. So he started to inspect the guy again, but again broke into uncontrollable laughter.

The guy in the chair this time demanded to know what the dentist thought was so funny. After the dentist composed himself, he exclaimed to the guy in the chair "I know what you got up to last night!". The guy in the chair, very embassed, replied "Oh - have I got some pubes stuck in my teeth?".

The Dentist replied "No. But you have got **** up your nose!"

Boom Boom.

A famous politician was doing the lecture rounds. Unbenkown to anyone one but the closest to him he had no teeth and had resorted to false teeth.

On evening he was i n a mad hurry to get to the most important night of his circuit. Absentmindedly as he arrived to the venue he noticed that he forgot his false teeth. In desparation he told his aid that he needed to cancel the night becasue he couldn't talk without his teeth. It just so happened that someone overheard the conversation, rushed to the politician and offered him his services.

He told the politician that all is not lost and that he has some teeth with him that he could try. The politician tried them in but unfortunately his joy turned to gloom when he realised they were too large. The kind gentleman reassured the politician that he can still help him, and gave hm another set of teeth to try in. But still no luck, these were too small. The politician was admant to cancel the night so he can save himself from further embarrasment, the kind gentleman was insistantthat the show will go on and handed him another set of teeth. A perfect fit!

The politician received a standing ovation and at the end of the night thanked the kind gentleman a thousand times. the politician said: "you must be the local dentist"

The kind gentleman replied : "No, I'm the local undertaker!"



And this,

What do you call a Gay dentist?

A tooth fairy!


Hymee...............consider the thread closed!
