    Nice how you play up your good fortune. I know a guy that owns 37 dealerships in 4 states, another that has four here in CA, and yet another that owns more than 150 dealerships, and the guy that owns the largest Ford dealership in the world. What do they all have in common? They are all a bunch of egotistical self-centered douches...

    How DARE you talk about me and my friends that way John...... :wink:

    Eh, their Canadians.... whats there to do in Canada besides drink and shoot pucks at each other and throw weights down a sheet of ice and get women to sweep really fast in front of it to slow it down.....

    Plus Tony..... Attachment not found.

    Ah yes, the fun um....eh....sport of curling. Tried it once and pretty much was asked to not come back. Northbrook curling club here on the North burbs of the city. A cross...as I put it, between bowling and golf. Why golf ? Because you can't say an 'effin word the whole frickin' time. When you bowl and get a strike what do you do ? Holler....yeah Baby .....in your face MF'er. Right ? Nooo, not in curling. It's like listening to announcers at a Golf tournament. Shhhh....I was constantly told. This is fun ? Hey , no offense to anyone on the North shore, but curling is the only time you'll see a Jewish woman pick up a broom. Take my word on that one.

    Yup, John that pic was just for you :biggrin:. It actually was one of the scariest pics of him I have ever seen.

    Crazy Cannucks....listen to this. Every time they or a relative comes to the states they always put in an order of something to bring back that they can't get there. Understandable.....I'd do the same thing. So my Canadian neighbors father put in his order before they left to head north over the border.

    Rye Whiskey
    Hungry Jack pancake mix
    Squeezable margarine

    Ok, the first 2 items....sure, why not...but squeezable margarine ? Who uses that junk anyway ? He says he puts it on his corn. Dude, butter and no other substitute goes on corn. And....why is that not available in Canada ? They have pot....but that squeezable margarine, get caught and you'll be looking at doing hard time. Lol....kidding of course. Oh, and magazines. Guess nobody down here will ship to Canada. God forbid any of them gets to read the Enquirer. Heck, most of them would be in that one.

    Hehe - no paper trail??? Google "Currency Transaction Report". FinCEN has a report, from the dealership, of your $10,000+ cash transaction. Unless you paid less than 10 grand then I apologize (and you got a great deal!).

    Here is the 2-page form that was filled out on the "paperless transaction". http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f8300.pdf

    If that's aimed at me, it wasn't I who said anything about paper trails.
