Glass man. Yeah-ah, I’m the glass man.

Dr. Gonzo

I TOLD you not to shake the Andre before you popped it!

I did not cause this, despite ample time in the “wayback” seats. This is why I took a pass on buying a Nissan Cube.

Dr. Gonzo

Does it count if it’s a Geo, which is a disguised Toyota Corolla?

ACID FLASHBACK THURSDAY: Lounge Lizards Unite

Dr. Gonzo

cocaine and hookers beats amway sales meetings every time

Maybe the 70’s weren’t a complete waste of time after.  Given the choice, I would take the Disco Stu/Larry the Lounge Lizard Monte Carlo over the middle management, I’m late for that widget convention at the airport Super 8 Malibu every single time.  “Progress” can kiss my leopard print covered/Hai Karate scented  ass.

No, it’s not because you could do hookers and blow (simultaneously) on that giant hood.  Well, not ENTIRELY because of that.

ACID FLASHBACK THURSDAY: Cop or Not

Dr. Gonzo

Calling this a "Fury" is heresy

Whitewalls and wheel covers say “no, more like city engineer.  From 1988.”  While this is the best Aspen (nee Valiant) ever, that is like saying a Monarch is the best Ford Falcon, or Olympia beer is the best pre-urine ever.

ACID FLASHBACK THURSDAY: Tony Zdeb Edition

Dr. Gonzo
Better than the '81 is not saying much

Better than the '81 isn't saying much

Hey everybody, it’s the new Jan Brady! 5-door Ford Escort.  It’s the first new car I ever test drove*, all $5,500 and no AC and no power anything of it.  It took me 5 lights worth of stalling at Winchell and Stadium before I gave up on the whole clutch/gas/ 1st gear business.  But for that bit of karma, I might have been Earnhardt-ed into buying it, which would have kept me from quitting my shitty job @ Burger King.  The horror…

*on a public street.  Certain other conditions apply.
