When I saw that you used the same picture as the local news I felt strangely validated to read your oh so accurate description of the nightmare fuel that is this poor child’s face.

There is a $500 Maserati Bi-Turbo semi local to me that is tempting me especially because the wife and I are already going project car shopping tomorrow and I have the money sitting in my account.
