Re: What made you feel good today?

Have a bit going on in life on a number of fronts and came to work late. Parked car on side of public road in Kind Edward park (section used to be used for a hillclimb event), getting umbrella from boot and mumbling about various life issues that are stacking up at the moment to myself, and was in a real dark funk.
Anyway I hear a car coming up behind me, and hear the intake system open up and what I hear is obviously some guy in a European exotic opening up his engine to put me and my Aussie v8 in place.
In a black stink I refuse to look to see what it is and give the idiot any satisfaction, get my coat from passenger rear, and then this idiot pulls up next to me- engine rumbling, and I am thinking what does this tosser want now- and he then says "says nice car bud" from his open window.
I then look at him and his car- he is sitting in a Smoke FGX XR8 with a modded exhaust and bobtail on lid. While I am looking at his car he is getting a gobfull of my front discs and calipers- I burst out laughing and he is also laughing and he then pulls off and opens it a bit to give some aural delight.
So from a black funk of aggressive morbidness that interaction made me feel good.
