False in that I haven't owned car brands with bad reputations but that's because I just know better than to buy them in the first place.

TPBM played with slot cars as a kid.

TRUE - I remember we had racing shops setup in town. There was quite a following, back in the day.

TPBM is having second thoughts on a purchase.

Thanks.....had a VERY bad intestenial bug...he hurt so bad they first thought it was his appendix...but it wasn't. he's better now...he stayed with us yesterday/last night (he's grown and on his own, and his mom was out of state working).

TRUE....actually 2....both from a stroke.


TPBM is happy as the sun is shining!!

TRUE - Always gives a nicer feel to the day, both physically and emotionally.

TPBM is thinking about a new career or direction in their life.

False. I love my job, I love my wife and kids, and I am good with my life overall.

TPBM is traveling for Thanksgiving.

False but only by choice, plenty of personal time available. I'll likely take most of Wednesday off tho.

TPBM would describe themselves as someone who likes to "hunt and fish" when it comes up in conversation.

False. I've only been fishing once in the last 25 years and hunting once. However, I do like to go shoot paper bad guys whenever opportunity comes up.

TPBM is hoping to get to shoot some paper bad guys this week.

Somewhat True: liked the show but haven't seen every episode, so not a "fan" by the typical definition.

TPBM cleans brake dust off their wheels between washes

False. Only time I've done that was with my Mustang convertible when I participated in parades a few years ago (another reason I picked up a SS convertible this time) & wanted to get it sparkly.

TPBM has driven in parades for fun.
