THANKS TO EVERYONE for taking the time to congratulate me and for saying such nice things about me, my car, and my first year of owning it. It has been a labor of love and this forum has been the perfect place to express that love and to find appreciation and acceptance for my present obsession. I dropped my car off on the way to work this morning and picked it up this evening with new brake pads all around. She still drove like a champ and stopped on every dime, so to speak. I like the new tight feeling I got when stopping. I don't really have a name for my car other than my own which is on the tag, JIMMM, and I say it means Jim in motion. My friends coined that name for me because when I say my name I accentuate the mmm's. Therefore, people often mock me by repeating "Jimmm" as if it had an aliteration of m's instead of just one. Since childhood I have always been careful to pronounce all the syllables in a word when speaking. I hope to own this car until I can't drive it anymore, and then perhaps I will give it to my nephew who is now only 13 y/o. I think he might appreciate it just because I gave it to him. Good night to all.
