Actually most of them are a joke. Our divorce might be the most amicable on record...largely due to her. That said I claim my natural right as a divorced man to ***** about my ex-wife and the screwing I got in the divorce. It is my due and half the fun of being divorced. The other half may be found in the "Things that are making you happy" thread.

I'm leaning toward a lightly used M3 at the moment.

Noice! Apparently however, you do not need your car to attract women. Get a nice GL450

Nice car but it's a complete fail as a mid-life crisis outlet. I figure that the M3 is as practical as I can be and still hold my head up around the other divorcee dads. On the other hand going the Full Monty with a Porsche or Corvette seems a bit cliche to me and given my age I'm afraid it would make me look desperate. M3 is a nice compromise I think.

It looks like I'm going to miss having that type of mid-life crisis. Not that I'm not having a crisis.

not having an M3 is perhaps the one thing I genuinely dislike about NYC. It's just not practical to pay for the car, the $480 a month parking, insurance, gas, etc.

But I want one dearly.

Yes, but you live in a kick-ass city instead. We all make compromises.

more when I pass and regret it 4 days later than when I actually purchase and realize I've spent too much. It's a viscious circle.

So, are updates required while I'm in Healdsburg? I've not been able to fix my problem uploading to Photobucket with my netbook yet, so no pics.

If you don't keep us updated while on your trip to America's wine mecca than you are no longer welcome here.

Dude you can use my computer. The trip from my couch, where you and your wife will be staying, to my computer is literally less than 30 steps.
