53. USAFR JAGC retired; currently Army civilian attorney. Although I fit the usual stereotype, by my count, I am only the second attorney to report in, which is surprising. The 08 Cayman is actually my second Porsche, but that was because I only owned my 99 Box for a few months before trading it after discovering my head would hit the rollbar in a rear-end collision. That, and my wife's discovery that a convertible might actually mess up her hair. LOL

Attorney, 53. This is my third Porsche, but I do have to say that my favorite car ever was my Alfa Romeo GTV6. Rare, great styling, fast for its time and blast in the twisties. The bad synchros taught me well how to heel and toe double clutch.
