I'm just enjoying my awesome acquisition.
You mean lease.
Well that certainly explains the vocabulary of "acquisition" instead of "purchase" or "buy".
Well, "acquire" means "buys or obtain (an asset or object) for oneself" so it really doesn't apply to a rented car. It's not his.
EG: "She acquired a new apartment" "He acquired a new car on lease",
etc.
The other entertainment is in that he's still not splashed any photographs; perhaps it should be renamed "The Slovenian Phantom". :-)Nashton 04/17/2013 12:30:22 PM <kkltjr$r00$1@speranza.aioe.org>Sandman"A car isn't an asset. It's liability, no matter what you buy."-hh
Well, from his life view he does have somewhat of a point: it is functionally just a liability until the pink slip (Title) shows up - - which in the context of his leases never happens.
I know, that's the fun part. :)
BTW, I also think that the 'perfect car' that I had been putting down attributes for can be simplistically summarized as something in the family of the old Porsche 944. Unfortunately, as a new car that product is long since gone, as well as its replacement, the 968. Nevertheless, I believe that I have finally found something that will adequately suffice. Offline if you're deeply interested, since its still way too much fun to keep Nasty in the dark ;-)
