WHAT CAUSES ARTHRITIS? A drunk man who smelled like beer sat down on a train next to a priest. The man's tie was stained, his face was plastered with red lipstick, and a half-empty bottle of gin was sticking out of his torn coat pocket. He opened his newspaper and began reading. After a few minutes the man turned to the priest and asked, "Say Father, what causes arthritis?" The priest replies, "My Son, it's caused by loose living, being with cheap, wicked women, too much alcohol, contempt for your fellow man, sleeping around with prostitutes and lack of a bath." The drunk muttered in response, "Well, I'll be damned," Then returned to his paper. The priest, thinking about what he had said, nudged the man and apologized. "I'm very sorry. I didn't mean to come on so strong. How long have you had arthritis?" The drunk answered, "I don't have it, Father. I was just reading here that the Pope does."

14 hours? i would be dead at that rate if i waited for all the models i would love to have!!

agree with you robert that is one of my favourite vids ever seen on the site. as for the request for an A class, i would happliy sell the kids and throw the mother-in-law in as a sweetener (shes good for protecting the house...dont have a guard dog and her voice sounds as good as a bad one!) if someone would produce one. one thing for sure - i will not be buying any more metro vics, A or C's...got stung with the lima 201s and i dont want that to happen again!! so be sure to put a stamp on that letter to paddy:)

jesus, thats fantastic. any idea how long it took to make it? if you were a real technical guy and into computers (i prersume that one is needed to imput the design), you could really make this baby pay. wonder how much it would cost to manufacturer a freight wagon, say for example a tara or guinness flat?

any pics of her?

dont give up on it anyway,..good luck with the project and keep us posted.

great find.....some fond memories looking at those beauties!
