Way Back Wednesday - Show me your ride

It's been a while but I'm glad to be back. And it's Wednesday, which means...time to play that game where The Kept Woman asks us to post embarrassing pictures of ourselves online for all the world to see.

This weeks theme is: I like your wheels man. We've seen the technology of the past, now how about some cars. Can't think of one? Look in other pictures to see if there's a car in the background.

And here we have it...vintage style. This was the only picture I could find and I know you can't see the whole car but, trust me on this...you don't want to. This was my first car...a 1978 Mercury Zephyr. Yeah...you heard me. Rust colored and everything. My parents paid a whopping $400 bucks for this baby when I was 16. Yeah, it had a few dents and huge hole in the front seat, but it got me from A to B, and that's all I cared about. I did have to crawl in through the passenger side and pump the breaks, (remember that? pumping the breaks..ha) but I had my ride, complete with a beanbag ashtray and foam seatcover. Yup. You can see from my face I was pretty happy. This ugly little piece of shit meant freedom. FREE. DOM. It also meant I would wind up in places I wasn't supposed to be and end up doing things I wasn't supposed to do. Good times.



oh..and I've just decided Jack's not getting a car until he's 21. Let me know if you played!
