Seems your brother's old red and black Bonnie made a lasting impression upon your son, eh Bill?!

(...nice pics...great story!)


Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

If I had a dollar bill
Yes I would, I surely will
Go into town and drink my fill.
Early in the mornin.

Looks like good fun.

Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.
