    Oh sure, blame me for your Cars addiction, Conrad, lol! Just because I helped you out with lots of Cars, many times... and only 100 Cars? We've got to get more to you...

    I have noticed several of us Cars-a-holics work in the IT field... and that Cars is our favorite movie... And Conrad breaks the string of our wives being our greatest achievement... but he'd move to Denmark for his wife if he won...

    I have appreciated the opportunity to get to know Conrad... thank you, my friend!

      That made me laugh about the fruit car, my son is amazed that when I start up my computer I have the same logo that's on the racing car!

        Wow - a Lost fan.... Were you disappointed by the ending? The show started off great but lost the plot a little for me towards the end. They could have ended it great (not sure how, but I'm not a script writer) but it kind of fell flat.

        Great to know about the adoption too. I was fortunate to not be forced down that road (although would have if required). What ages did you adopt them at (the children)?

        We could also do with some pictures of your custom SOTS on here too. I saw old ones of them a whiile ago and would love to see some up to date ones

            Lost was an amazing show, for sure. I'm not sure if I would have been completely satisfied with any ending, but I thought it could have been worse.

            I love the "Spotlight On..." threads. Three cheers to whomever's idea this was.
