Well, my mom had a Gremlin when I was little, then later the family had a green Hornet (what a babe magnet), and in college I had an orange 68 AMX...

I guess whatever that makes you, I must be worse...

But that would be missing the point, wouldn't it?



Or I could talk about how God believes in libertarianism, or liberalism, but in all cases leftism, which is now a term so filled with negative and socialist connotations that I am about to start referring to it as "upism", and how the Bible supports that. But that too would be missing the point.

Actually, the 1 diminsional model of left/right is not very good. Look here for a more accurate depiction of where Libertarians stand in relation to left/right and the other less-free factions.

Well, with a little more under the hood than any AMX ever had, but the Gremlin body would make it such a sleeper!!

Hey Begle
I almost bought one of those in 1974.
It had a 304 V8 with a three speed standard.
It went like heck, and I was only 17.
Good thing the deal fell thru.
It was a neat, fast little car.
BTW I ended up buying a new Toyota Hilux pick up...4 cylinder.
I put the big tires on it...slow as hell....kept me alive.

I was going over some bible verses, but ended up very confused. I must not have interpreted them right.
Take a look at the quiz torwards the bottom.
