This is a new Audi A8, note that it is silver, not because thats its color, but that what its made of. SILVER. For a sheik whose name I can't pronounce, or spell....

Its amazing what $2.75 US gallon of gas can buy huh? I'll spare you pictures of his home.

I hope tarnishes to an ugly green/brown/gray/black

Oh wait, I suppose there's staff (who live in a tent somewhere) on hand to buff it daily.

Given that I live near our nation's capital, I DO hope he can drive in the city....

And I don't see a Lo-Jack on it! LOL!

Sometimes, just sometimes, life seems a little unfair.

May a thousand guided pigeons blight this man.

Look at the money saved by not buying a wardrobe!

It is criminal considering how many people in the middle east are living in dire poverty! And *we* are considered children of Satan, even as they witness that in their midst!

I like the blight of a thousand pigeons! Good one, Mongo!

Shalom!

A silver-plated Audi! It's still ugly as sin. At least the Sultan of Brunei has class. He owns over 5,000 rare & exotic vehicles.

One of my favorites is the four door Ferrari 456GT ''estate wagon''. He has a harem of them.

[Yes. This IS a Ferrari.]

The way I see the 456GT Venice model: It's the world's sexiest 400+ horsepower, 200 mile-an-hour stationwagon!!! You can take it to the racetrack for some quick thrills, pick up the wife & kids, and stop by the grocery store IN RECORD FREAKIN' TIME!

Purrdy · 01-25-2006, 07:10 AM

I just LOVE my VW GOLF.....Nothing will ever sway me from that!

PS why hasnt it got any fluffy dice in the window?

'My other car is a camel' that sort of thing.......

Well it ws a thought tee hee

Taking a cue from Purrdyy, I would now like to unveil my latest masterpiece.

Purrdy · 01-26-2006, 01:58 AM

LOL!!!!
that is fabulous!!!!

Love Purrddyxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

01-26-2006, 03:42 AM

Thank You, Thank You.

I didn't time myself, but I worked on it about 4 hours total. Searching for the perfect George Burns (may he RIP) inspired dromedary took about 30 min's alone!! Getting Mr. Camel™ to look jus-rite sporting that velvety soft focus took a little fooling with. Not bad for a horrible original scan...But clearing out the background was easy.

A silver Audi!! I'm sure there will be a gold one next!

There are incredibley rich people the world over and seemingly an infinate number of baubles made to show it.

And what about me? While I know people go hungry I justify my own baubles, they might not be as big as a silver Audi but I doubt they would make anymore sense to someone who's hungry.

It is what it is and I'm part of it, I sometimes wonder what it will take to make me change.

The post was a good reminder.

Purrdy · 01-26-2006, 08:35 AM

Its not silver its aluminium.......
