    I did something the other day that made me think that we are to Mustangs as women are to new shoes.

    I made a sucker bet and I lost. I was at a bar with my wife and ordered her a tall shot of citrus vodka. She can drink liquor now and then but buy no means is an alcohol pro. Anyway, I offered to buy her new shoes if she downed the tall shot of vodka in one gulp.

    Well, needless to say, before I knew it the glass was empty and I was putting out for new shoes.

    Sucker bet? Absolutely.

    Then she said to me, "Imagine how fast you'd have done it if I offered to buy something for your car."

    Wow... that REALLY put it into perspective for me. I have a whole new understanding for women and their love for shoes!

    Wifey should hold off on the purchase till you return to SF and go to Bloomingdales at Westfield.

    :rlaugh: Figure the drink may only burn for a few seconds or even if it lasts into the next day, she will be enjoying the shoes way longer than that! The same for me with tattoos, it may hurt for a day, but a lifetime to have them! I would have done it as well for Stang parts!
