Dirk;
Did you attend college? Were there any courses offered in ** LOGIC **?

Wait a minute, do you hate the SUVs or the 'twit' drivers?

Oh, OK, it's the drivers. Oops, wait a minute, YOU'RE an example of the
twits you despise! Hmmm. A psychiatrist would find that interesting I'm
sure. .

Good for you, Dirk. Please put in a good word for me with St. Peter. (BTW,
I wonder how much petroleum is used in making all those plastic body
panels?)

Illogical. Does not compute. This is bullshit and you should know it. You
might as well say no one named Dirk can properly drive an SUV. And, based
on a sample size of 1, the odds that this statement is true are 100%.
>They also seem to automatically forget how to use thier turn

More incredibly illogical BS.

Hope no one named Dirk is driving an SUV or a truck near your neon birdie.

I thought it was the drivers being idiots. So they're hypocrites too now?
You apparently live in a logic-free zone, Dirk. You are incapable of
handling an SUV, therefore everyone is. And everyone bus SUVs because
everyone else does. Well, I must be from another planet, because I bought
my SUV in 1986 before they were popular and I bought it for specific reasons
having to do with my photography interests.
Now please, crawl back in your narrow little hole and stop trying to foist
your illogical opinions onto everyone else.

>Hope this helps.
Yep, helped a lot.
>
>Be seeing you.
If you do and you're in your Sparrow, you better get the hell out of the
way! Cause maybe I'll revert to being a typical SUV driver and confuse the
gas pedal with the brake.
