Curse?

Does this go with the SS curse?

Yesterday when I was walking out to my car in the parking lot of a local military shopping establishment here in Hawaii I found not one but 3 shopping carts using my car as a cart catcher. Damage - Front Bumper gouges all the way down to the plastic. Rear bumper gouge on both sides down to the plastic.

Oh well I have a MS kit being shipped out anyways.

Maybe, when I owned my Mustang SVT Cobra, I was at a softball game at the Brunswick, Maine Naval Air Station. I was sitting in the bleachers, turned around and saw some jerks kid crawling all over my car(it wasn't silver by the way). The kids father wasn't upset that his little bastard was doing either. I should have beat him with the bat I unknowly was carrying as I ran towards his son who was stomping on the hood of my car and ripped on wiper off.

Not that I am a revenge junky or anything, but I ran into them while I was at a local bar watching football. Needless to say when I had to break the seal after a few pitchers. I left a few nice suprises on his car. Damn beer and chili.

This definitely qualifies as the Curse:

And no, it's NOT me! This was in Florida... the nose got hung up on stub of rebar sticking up through the parking berm. Now I don't know which of those delightful babes was the driver, but you'd THINK she'd NOTICE that her car was caught before dragging the concrete slab several feet and completely ripping off her poor car's nose!

Sunlight Silver here adn well guess we will just see if the curse comes around.

Melchior ; I like my silver I have had several silver cars and they always look great to me, In florida it is an easy color to keep clean and does not soak up the heat on the paint as bad to get those water marks burned in.

Red and Black...had em both wont go back to them

just my .02

I can't guess who the owner is either, BUT!!!!, what da hell is that black lady holding in her left hand? Looks like a potato skin peeler? Looks like shes about to jab someone in the kidneys.

That nose probably didn't fall off because of the parking island, it's probably due to those nastly looking sunroof wind deflectors... I'm gonna have the CURSE them too!!!!
