I want a used Porsche 911. I want one from an 82'-85'. Back then Porsches came with Fuchs and I love those. Old classic VW beetles look good with Fuchs too. Used 911s run at reasonable prices, and I'm glad, because I can't afford a new Porsche, and I doubt I'll ever be able too.:( Plus, I like older Porsche designs better anyway, plus they had air cooled engines back then. Now they're all water cooled. 97' was the last year for air cooled Porsches. One of the major things I need to watch for when I do get one is the rust. 85s' rusted a lot around the B-Pillars and underneath some of the plastic parts that didn't drain very well. Nothing sounds like a 911 either. The sound of that air cooled flat six engine is music to my ears. Below is an 85' with white Fuchs. Fuchs look better in chrome to me. I think the 80s had the best looking cars. I love newer cars but I'm a bigger fan of the 80s styling (in European cars only).

Well I'm not into "Vintage," even though I highly respect the origins and the high-point of design.
I'm a Tech Major, and I'm really into sleek curves and subtle design implementations.. That said, when I saw the commercial for the new R8, I fell in love for a bit. I'm sure that car is out of my price range for the next 10 years, wherein there will most definitely be a new model, but I generally like the way Audi cars look anyway. Wow, talk about Off-topic.. Did You Know: Carter G. Woodson, the man credited with spearheading the Black History Month movement, was a member of Omega Psi Phi. :-D |
I can add 10 Top Web Sites for African American Genealogy:
1. Afrigeneas (probably the best place to start) 2. The USF Africana Heritage Project 3. Freedmen's Bureau Online 4. American Memory Collection 5. Civil War Soldiers & Sailors System 6. Slaveholders and African Americans, 1860-1870 7. Free African Americans of Virginia, N Carolina, S Carolina, Maryland & Delaware 8. American Slave Narratives - An Online Anthology 9. African American Cemeteries Online 10. The African-American Migration Experience Hope that helps! |

Btw: I'm mad at you for telling me that "The last house on the left" was good. That movie is older than me. It was horrible.:mad::) |
Oh I'm got this! But, as somebody already said, Black History Month should be celebrated all year.
Anyway, here goes... In February 1941, Dr. Charles R. Drew set up and administered the first American Red Cross Blood Bank, which produced dried plasma that could be preserved longer than the liquid version. The innovative medical research of Dr. Drew saved the lives of thousands of wounded servicemen during World War II. Later that year, Drew resigned his position of Director of the AMRC blood bank after the War Department sent out a directive stating that blood taken from White donors should not be mixed with blood taken from Black donors. He left his position there to accept the Chair of Surgery at Howard University. In 1943, Drew became the first African-American surgeon to serve as an examiner on the American Board of Surgery. |
Wow. He even stole your signature. LoL.

The argument that increasing post count has something to do with the color of text is a very good example of red herring. My ex-gf majored in that, so you'll have to try something else.
