Some people don't like this so let's hear your take on things.

The (possible) peeve of the week is;

Having to do something by yourself.
I hate dining in a restaurant by myself. I have friends who are married with children who love a chance to eat alone in a restaurant because it's a rare quiet time for them. But when I am away from home and dining alone I feel very self-conscious and lonesome. It's odd, because I've lived alone my entire life and love it. But there's something about being alone in a public place, especially a restaurant, that I don't like.

Having to do something by yourself.

There are both advantages/disadvantages... advantages - you get to do exactly what you want to do & see on your own schedule w/o having to wait on others, disadvantages - there's no one there to share the experience.

Jezer, really enjoyed the photo of the two red mustangs...



... brought back the memories of the two my ex and I had when we first started going out back in the day... he had the '67 2+2 stick-shift like that and I had the '67 sedan automatic, both red on red...
here in the top pics are the google images of both for that year - note the side scoops and hood scoops. (Side note, he liked me until I was driving his one day and backed into one of those big white concrete pillars that holds the Kentucky Fried Chicken sign and crumbled the entire right back panel! )

As great as the memories are of them today, most everyone at that time traded autos every year or two, which was pretty much a must to have a reliable vehicle back then, plus neither had A/C!
