No just eccentric!

Ah yes, the eccentric nut behind the wheel on those old air cooled Porsches...

Dont put words in my statements, eccentric is a polite term, calling someone nuts is insulting

Hey, no insult intended. My apologies, as I did not mean to put words in your statements. Merely meant as an attempt at a pun. So, eccentric it is.



And, my apologies to surfer51 for semi-hijacking this thread.

I'm pretty sure this was a cultural/semantic mismatch with no offense intended on either side...carry on!

He bit,



I own a 36 year old motorcycle too, I can definitely call myself nuts

OK, I did bite.



I own a 56 year-old British motorcycle...and a set of Whitworth spanners. For that alone I call myself nuts. ?

Cultural/semantic mismatch. I love it. We all know have been graced with the response to any potential insult or crossing over the line. DS sharpen your blades. It’s uplifting not to have to feel sensitive. Just think how our political discussions can be improved!

Turning 74 next week with a 27 year old car that I bought 25 years ago and 60 year old racing bicycle that I don't spend near enough time riding.

Been surfing all around the coast and west coast for over 55 years..i'm retired and just built my last home and to top it off I ride my bike 20 miles a day 5 to 6 times a week and here soon i'll have over 10,000 mi.s rode in 20 months..so nothing can phase me at any age talk..bought this car to keep me busy in the garage with my hands...have found a lot of parts thru out the country and help here and on other boards..for you younger roosters...keep moving..don't stop!..
