    I spotted this Sunfire beside me when I stopped for lunch today. It didn't catch my eye at first but I looked it over a little closer when I was getting back in the truck. Once I saw the sealant holding on the fake parts I couldn't stop laughing. The absurdities carried on throughout the rest of the car and the interior. The passenger seat had been coated with spray foam and covered with a bright yellow plastic sheet, there were a bunch of odd little trim pieces stuck all over the place and check out that tire wear!!

    My guess is that it was the kid loudly explaining to a table full of employees on their lunch break about how he had just gotten out of a speeding ticket. He claimed that he had simply explained to the judge that the average speed in the passing lane on HWY 401 was 130km/h(80mph) (speed limit is 100km/h or 62mph). Remember folks, in Canada, the speed limit applies to all three lanes. Traffic that cannot do the limit is to stick to the right lane and the left lane should only be for passing. Passing, of course, is illegal if you have to exceed the posted limit to do it. Supposedly he was caught going faster than everyone else and felt that should be OK because everyone else was already speeding. According to him the judge simply dismissed all charges.

    Ah, yes, the classic "...but everyone else is doing it" defense.
    I weep for the future.

    Well I have seen worse. A production shop now moved up island was in the building next door to us (work) They pumped out roof/wall vents, scuppers and had 1 guy who knew what was going on and a crew of minimum wage labor, was the kind of place where if you got hired to drill holes that is all you did day after day so you can imagine what kind of people worked there. They tore down a dented weathered cladded storage shed, one guy cladded his rust bucket truck from the dumpster:slap: Another guy had a POS fox body Rustang, he screwed a residential roof vent to the hood for that ram air look, even left the bug screen in it:slap:
