You know I am bad. When I was a youngster we use to like those old cougars that would yell at you. We would get them cranked up until they were red in the face. It was much fun. First new car $1000 First boat $10

ALWAYS discuss a substantial (over $150) purchase first with your wife. Then go ahead and buy whatever it was anyhow.
