And you keep discounting the fact that my presence here was my choice, not some obligation. If you wanna wave - fine. But, don't chide me because I choose not to wave back...

You just made my point. You go to other forums to serve your purpose, yet you still come here to a group of people which you have a common ground with.


No one said that it was an obligation, nor did they even suggest that.


All I am saying is not to act like you are the exception here and you aren't here for the same reason the rest of us are.

My all time favorite acknowledgment while driving my car top down (stuck in traffic Jam on The Garden State Parkway):

A guy who looked very similar to Samuel L. Jackson to boot but not driving a Boxster:

"YEAH!! THAT'S WHAT I"M MOTHER *#$&'^@'g TALKIN' ABOUT! HELL YEAH!!"

When people risk their lives, shouldn't it be for something very important?
Well, it better be.
But what is so important about driving faster than anyone else?
Lots of people go through life doing things badly. Racing's important to men who do it well.
When you're racing, it's life. Anything that happens before or after is just waiting.

I wave to farmers all the time. They are always good for a wave back. Gotta love those farmers!

I have never waved at a guy in a Porsche or any other car actually.


I let my engine do the talking

MNBoxster would be a terrible farmer cause he doesnt wave... J/K Chances are that Jim has been a farmer and owned a dairy, creamery, chicken coop and slaugther house and would school me on the subject

If that makes you feel better about the plain truth right in front of you.


"I own a Porsche Boxster and I am actually an active member on a Porsche Boxster forum, but I am in no way part of ANY COMMUNITY associated w/ Porsche Boxsters."


Hard to deny the facts.

Hi,

It is hard to deny the facts, if there were any that is.

A couple hours ago you wrote: "...However, you relate to the people here because of the car you have, and for that, you joined in the community..."

So, WTF are you talking about? Like I said: "Pretzel Logic"...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

Does that statement in any way contradict any statements I made AFTERWARDS?


You're right. You don't own a Boxster. You aren't an active member on a Boxster forum.


Forgive me. I have no clue where I got those ideas from.
