Sealy - about the timepiece on the wrist...


BTW, the CM looks great - still waiting to be allowed to put plates on Fenton.

OK, making notes here - - -

1. Clean tail pipes.
2. Clean feet.
3. Don't wear strange shoes when posting.
4. Be tolerent of people who say "2nd best".
5. Timepiece? What timepiece?

Thanks all!

What is the significance of the name? Also, I second the tip issue. Ya need to pony up and use 91 octane juice.

Park your CM next to a standard MINI and then check the Yiddish dictionary -

Large, full figured, round, voluptuous, sensual . . . the english equivalent is Rubenesque.


Sealy - Who only feeds Zaftig the best high-octane juice.

You're right. Just highlighted and found: zaftig |ˈzäftig; -tik| (also zoftig)
adjective informal
(of a woman) having a full, rounded figure; plump.
ORIGIN 1930s: Yiddish, from German saftig ‘juicy.’

Excellent word.

Got the timepiece.

. . . waiting to be allowed sounds alot like my home. Sometimes you just gotta take the bull by whatever gets its attention.

I've carefully explored the DMV here in CA but I can't find anything I can grip to get the necessary attention...
