Epic flashback!

That PSA will always be funny to me, because an underclassman in highschool who hung out with us started smoking pot, and his dad found out and scolded him for doing drugs.  But the pot he was smoking was his dad's old stash that he found one day.

Later, my mind exploded when I played DOOM for the first time at his house.  Then later after that, I was driving him home in my first car and started doing handbrake turns in the snow.  Years and years later, we met up again to hang out and catch up and it turns out he drove a first generation Infiniti G20 and didn't know how awesome a car it was.

This was the last place I was still using any form.of the 'morbid' moniker, so I changed it after meeting everyone at the challenge. The way I see it, I post sporadically enough that I'm 'invisible' anyway and, as long as I don't change the picture and name at the same time, the world shouldn't implode

 

Well played, sir! 

Thanks for the help! 

Well, it really seems like we've attracted a clowder of cougars in here.

I have revealed my true name (for this hour.)

T.J. Cougar......hmm, I'm not sure I can pull it off. 

If you channel your inner cougar I bet you could.

Recon: 1st Reconnaissance Battalion, 1st Marine Division; my unit.

1342: My occupational specialty- Small Craft mechanic; I fixed the cool black boats and outboards you see in the movies. 

It’s the same for every forum I’m a member of, that way I can keep track of myself. 

My favorite part of this is that next year, after the Challenge, when I add Cougar to my name, we can do this all over again. You guys are very predictably the best. 

Is there going to be a class where you have to enter an actual Mercury Cougar?

If not there should be.  Bonus points for the '74-76 Megalocougar.

The cougar class- this sounds like winning to me!

We may have inadvertently stumbled upon the 2019 Challenge sub-class.

Florida is a great place to find attractive older women....

Yeah, but how do they handle and accelerate?

I've got the Cougar however it is over budget and not the Megalocougar.

Cougar class sounds good. Reminds me of the 71 bullet nose, suicide 4 door T bird I should have bought from my uncle.

What cougar are we talking about, malaise boat, newer, or Florida women?

In reply to Brian Cougar neoncamp :

YES ! all of them!

I sincerely hope all of those are represented in the councourse in 2019. 

You are now half way to the nothing to hide club. 

I changed my screen name to my name after the $2014 Challenge. Screen name was WillrunifChased and people kept calling me Will. I wan't a fan of being called Will.

Depends on how many margaritas are in them.

Bingo!

Megalocougar

I'll bet there's three feet of empty space behind the point of that front bumper.
