--I LIKE it!!!...How beautiful that thing will look in the dark--as it glows!!!
I'd sniff the smoke coming from behind that car--and hoping a rock or two would fall off!!

If that car gets parked on the street, how long do you think it will take for someone to kick the side mirrors off and run to the pawn shop?
