    Relax PFB, we are all having some fun at your expense. Also it's hard to portray the tone when the smiley's are missing which I don't know why they aren't back yet. Your stories definitely are popcorn worthy however. Insert smiley....

    So, PFB, you still haven't answered...can't seem to find a completed Ebay listing for a black/tan Boxster with 58k miles. Care to link the one you are purchasing, or would that be impossible because this is all a result of pseudologia fantastica?

    I have a feeling that he won't post one. We'll hear that the seller backed out, or it was busted up in shipping, etc., etc. It'll be some sort of drama.

    Dude, your problem is that you have NO CENSOR! You don't need to tell us everything you do and do it in a way that sets you up for some ribbing. You don't see us doing that, do you? That's what's up here. You have to understand the difference between what should be public and what should remain private or else you come across like a five year old who just doesn't get it.

    Plus no one here has any way of verifying any of your claims. We have to take your word on good faith. The problem, again is that a lot of your posts smack of "hyperbole" so it's hard to not say "show me the money!" lol

    You should just chill some, hang back for a little and let all this blow over.

    And if you do have that boxer coming. Post some pics when it's ready? Personally I could care less because I'm not 20 something anymore and I'm not interested in "cool" cars or "fast" cars. I'm just trying to make sure my family is in something they won't die in if something happens! And, it goes, without saying that I would "never" buy a car off Ebay?

    Even if I were to take that bet and win it, I might not see the money because you might deposit it into someone elses account :biggrin::smile::mrgreen::evil:

    PFB it's all in fun I for one enjoy this thread if I could post a pic it would be of my big a$$ beer glass filled to the brim with Becks October Fest Bier and a bag of freshly popped Act II kicken Jalepano popcorn. After you get the new ride silence the critics and post a pic of it. Next time I get to the Fargo Moorhead area we should get together and knock back a few Grain Belt Premiums. What's say?

    I enjoy PFBs threads. Most here are just having fun with the topic.

    I'll say this, PFB is enjoying life, has a sense of humor, thick skin and can laugh at himself. We could use more members wtih those qualities.

    Rock on PFB!
