    no, not even close to original. But it's a one of a kind handcrafted 1967 fastback built by the Ring brothers. (in the same realm as Chip Foose)

    the last time I saw the Kona Mustang on ebay, it was fetching around $125k

    it's not mine but I have a 68.....not even worth posting a pic of on here(yet)

    Sure wish this was how we played earlier in the year. Geez. It's fun as hell watching this team as of August and September so far.

    For those that don't know, Valverde has a lower WHIP than Lidge. Something like 1.17 to 1.20.

    Ready to make the tip jar bet? I'll pay $25 to the tip jar if the Cubs make it to the World Series this season, you pay $25 when they don't?

    When you get to the playoffs, cross your fingers with that left side of your defense. Errormis and Sorryano may drop a few balls in the clutch.

    walk-off HR by Berkman - AWESOME!

    Erstad throwing out the runner at the plate to save the game - BEAUTIFUL!

    coming back from 6 runs down to win the game - BREATHTAKING!

    watching the Cubs choke down the stretch again......PRICELESS.

    I like how the Cubs announcers mention Valverde's antics, when they, in fact, have the biggest loudmouth JERKHOLE showboat in the Majors ...

    What an awesome game. Eventhough it probably wont mean much n the grand scheme of things, it sure is a lot fun watching this team play this past month.

    Man, do I hate the Cubs and their fans. I still hate the Cardinals more.

    The Cubs hadn't lost their last 11 series (tied 2 four gamers). We put a stop to that.

    "Seem like we Cubs creak in armor, we worried now. I Astros fan for life! The Cubs having trouble!"

    Sorry, I just wanted to feel what it was like to write without auxiliary and "be" verbs. It cool.

    You missed his earlier comment where he said something along the lines of "...the fans standed up...". I tried to tell the kid to read more books and watch less TV but I think it's a lost cause.
