That's the new Charger? Yuck. Looks like it has hit middle age. Looks like a Buick to me. But then, what do I know about cars? I live in New York City, and ride the subway. However, I'll still stand by my statement that it must have cost an f$u booster a sizable amount of money. Go Gators!!!! Ken B.

Oh my gosh, that's all I hear about these days. Ahem... I have a 16 year old boy, ya know. ;-) I've attached the picture he sent me a few days ago with the subject line "My Dream Car". LOL. Yeah, dream is right.

I didn't know they are still making those. I figured a "star" player at F$U would be driving something much more upscale than that. Go Gators!!!! Ken B.

AW................. ok, ok, I DO feel a LITTLE compassion for him. I was told that I did the same thing at a donut shop on Beach Blvd (Jax Beach) around 2:00AM in '73. That was before drive thru's, however, and I was just sitting in the middle of the parking lot. My car had a stick shift and my foot had slipped off the clutch allowing the car to lurch forward and die. I was out cold and the employees parked my car and put me in the back seat. I woke up about 10:00 the next morning with a bag of donuts on my chest. Freaks! Ah, those were the good days... Must have been the medicine I was taking for an illness. Yeah, that's it. I was sick! ;-) Randy ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Sent: Saturday, January 31, 2009 3:16 PM Subject: [gatornews] [ESPN.com] FSU's Parker arrested on DUI charge FSU's Parker arrested on DUI charge Comment Email Print ESPN.com news services Florida State junior receiver Preston Parker was arrested Saturday morning and charged with DUI after police found him passed out behind the wheel of his car at a McDonald's, according to the Tallahassee Democrat. An officer arrived to find a red Dodge Charger in the drive-through lane at approximately 5 a.m. A wtiness told police the car had been parked there for about 20 minutes, according to the paper. The car's engine was running, the car was in drive and Parker's foot was on the brake pedal, according to a news release from the Tallahassee Police Department. The officer woke Parker by pounding on the window, according to the release. [+] Enlarge Mike Zarrilli/Getty ImagesPreston Parker had only 40 catches for 372 yards and two touchdowns in 2008 after missing the first two games. Parker was arrested after taking part in a field-sobriety test he agreed to take, police said. His blood-alcohol content was 0.054, below the Florida legal limit of 0.08. Police said a urine sample was a "presumptive positive" for marijuana. Police also said Parker admitted to drinking alcohol and smoking marijuana Friday night. According to the Democrat, anyone convicted of first-offense DUI in Florida, a misdemeanor, faces a fine of up to $1,000 and up to six months in jail. Parker was formally charged in May 2008 with a felony count of carrying a concealed firearm and possession of marijuana. He later pleaded guilty to misdemeanor counts, and was suspended for the first two games of the 2008 season. Parker was arrested in Tallahassee in the fall of 2006 for petty theft, but the charge was dropped after he completed a diversion program. Parker had 40 catches for 372 yards and two touchdowns in 2008, well below the 62 catches for 791 yards he had in his standout sophomore season. He finished that sophomore year with 1,061 yards and five touchdowns in total offense and was named Florida State's offensive MVP. <BR <BR --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
