After practice the class and I had the privilege of listening to one of the students talking about themselves at length. It was a pleasant surprise for no one asked nor encouraged her to continue, but for our benefit she did anyways.

I want a tank... doesn't have to be an Abrams. A Sherman would still be fun...

Might I suggest an old Soviet T-34? Sure, it's a tin can with a big gun attached in the front, but, as with Kalashnikov machine gun, you can do pretty much anything with it - leave it in a swamp or bury it in the middle of a desert, then bring it back out - and it will still work.

I went to High School...... about 10 miles west of Worcester just off of Route 9 and went to Elementary thru Junior High about 60 miles north east of Worcester on the North Shore

I know @Buka is in Hawaii but he is going back to visit Mass soon and if he hears I', coming he will likely not show up :D.

The last time I talked to him and said I was going to be in Boston...... he moved to Hawaii.... and YES..... I took it personally :D

OpEl.
the von Opel family got their money from that.
And the Manta is such a lovely car....the VW Golf was it's greatest rival, and it spawn a ton of fun jokes:
What is left of an Opel Manta when it burns out:
A golden Necklace and a crying hairdresser. :D

They made plans to narrow the car to 90 centimeters (to allow both elbows of the driver to hang out the window)
But the Kenwood stickers are 1.20m.....
