DeTomaso Mailing List: December 2000, Message #190

I purchased one last week at PCNC meeting.....Its beautiful.......Bosses kid
came in my office yesterday and asked if he could play with the car  so I
had to throw his little butt out of my office and explain to him this is no
stinkin toy we're talkin about and he should tell his old man if he thinks
he's man enough to come down the hall himself and ask.  This is another
reason jack why we should NEVER allow kids to come to OUR adult-disneyland
in Vegas
mAd dAwG, Still plays with cars 
Charlie still don't surf
