Why wait 10 years for the accent, I wish I had a picture of the Accent I saw
the other day. I damn near pissed myself laughing, stickers all over it and
something on the trunk that I am sure will allow you to pick up cable tv
channels without a cable, and it was home made cause it was plain looking
sheetmetal. looked like the sock springs were cut, and it had autoparts
store DIY tinting on all the windows, and a fart pipe that made it sound
like a go-kart. I just wish I could have seen the driver step out.

speaking of white trash I think it's time to dust off the Joe Dirt DVD and
fall asleep.
