True Arby's story: Back, waaay back in the mid-nineties, we had all just gotten our licenses and decided to eat at Arby's. They had just introduced their big assed sandwich the "Montana." We order said sandwich. The cashier, and nice enough guy, had a veeeeerrrryyy effeminate voice. He calls back to the food guys, "Twoooooo Mon-taaaaanaaaassss!
It was our thing to say anywhere near an Arby's for years.
My idea of Heaven:
A KLR-650, a road in the middle of nowhere and the Sawtooth mountains in central Idaho in the backround. I will be there in two weeks. To say I am excited is an understatement.
Earlier I said I drove past a house nearby where I live and saw an NC miata, C3 vette, an original insight, a 300zx convertible, and a bunch of other cars. Today I was able to identify 2 more:
an avanti in bright yellow, and:
a silver shadow in I think this color scheme.
If you're on here, please fess up, I want to be your friend
If it helps I vaguely remeber the house having windows and a roof, maybe a door. The miata is bright red with power retractable hard top and looked entirely stock, the Avanti doesn't look like an original color, more like lamborghini yellow, I think the C3 vette was silver, the silver shadow looked stock. I'm the guy who nearly came to a stop in front of your house in a blue RX8. I wasn't stalking. Much.

Almost every car in my Gran Turismo 6 garage has that color scheme - refrigerator white over bright orange Ray's 57Ds. I just drove my version of this last night (looks identical, in fact):

Did someone say danger zone?
Well, when you need a 14mm bolt, I guess you gotta do what you gotta do.

that reminds me of some cards my buddy bought off the internet. I seriously wish I could see the faces of the people who have received them from him...

lol...I didnt notice the spark plug...I thought we were looking at the self-clearancing brake caliper.
Self clearancing related hotlink:
Without knowing the sheer or tensile strength of a spark plug, I'd be nervous. Sure it'll get you home, but aren't most of those bolts Grade 8 or DIN 12.9?
Aren't spark plugs hollow in the middle?
