Yeah, I had a boss like that once. He was a straight shooter too. He was like a bulls**t umbrella for us.
Hope you're doin' something fun.

I think @THEYTOOKMYTHUMB is always saying it's about being here for a good time, not a long time... course, that could just be what he tells his missus.... ;)

Got some paint on my Graphite car.

It has Spaz Stix color change on it. But when backed in blue, it looks more like a purple pearl.

A little work done on the Bolink Round Tracker today. It is nailing the Miami Vice color scheme pretty well. :D

I have to look further into these metallic paint jobs that are popping up because I am loving jcoupe's paint scheme above! :shock:
