Hello all-

Just picked up the morning paper...I always have to read the funnies right away, then hit the crossword puzzle for a few minutes. The crossword puzzle is always embedded in the classified ads so I usually scan them for something automotively interesting.

There hasn't been anything interesting in a long time, though yesterday they listed a mint '83 88 Regency for $3600, 507-895-2401

Then...today...I just about spit my Cheerios across the kitchen when I saw this ad:

OLDS- '57- 1 convertible, 1 hardtop
excel. cond. show winners, divorce
forces immediate sale. $800 ea. or
$1500 for both. Call Steve
608-792-9270.

No joke! Well...I thought it was...but, the opportunity just seemed too good to pass up. So, I called, and it's a real number! His voice mail box is full (go figure). I thought I might woo the owner with my tales of woe and Oldsmo-depravation, a disease for which there is no cure. Alas, I guess I'll have to settle for owning just 5 Olds'.

What? Depravation, you say? Only one of them runs and I work only 15 hours a week. Fun for me is sitting in the drivers seat of my '70 and going Vroom vroom, imagining what 330hp feels like. After I crush a few imaginary imports I clean the spit off the windshield.

Scott "still a kid inside"White
Oldsmobile-- Because there are far too many mediocre things in life to drive a Chevy.
