Now...?









Anyway, I feel so bad for this guy. My dad almost got scammed into thinking he won the lottery. Some foreign "lottery company" sent a letter, stating that my dad was recently selected from a huge jar of random names and is the sole winner of well over 10 million Euro. The weird thing about the letter was that not only did it have horrible grammatical errors, the person(s), who wrote the letter, seemed to not know what my dad's first name was at all.

When I read his response to you, I was wondering, "WTF? J_inDA_s2k didn't say anything offensive... Why share a story if you don't want to be ridiculed for getting played by a stripper?"

hey do you have spacers or is that just how the 06 wheels sit?

and my indirect stripper comment was meant in a humorous manner

Fact is that if you want to get really really really rich you have to lose your morals.
