I would idle around Shoneys with the car doing the race cam shake and the metal roof would vibrate like it was about to fall off. I met my wife there and she was a waitress, she has put up with her "Bad Boy" for 40 years now. Still young at heart, and still bad to the bone in my mind.
You were way too cool - that just sounds awesome!
