I for one am impressed by her taste if not by her subtlety (or lack
thereof). Even if Rich and Mark don't I would like to ride in your
Merc. If I'm good, may I drive it?

I didn't say I wasn't impressed...  Nice wheels!
-I simply said its bad form to try and impress with your vehicle...
...which is true.

I didn't get where I am by being subtle Bill.
But sorry, not even my other half or my Daddy get behind the wheel of my
Merc. I worked bloody hard for my dream.

I understand that...
I'm driving my dream car too...just a little different category.

Since you asked...I can tell you...and still maintain my pristine "form"...

This is true although subtelty has its place. Different tactics for
different situations. I'm pressing my wife for a 911 Carerra. She says
it's just an expensive toy but she says that about my photo gear, as
well. I take the stance that it's a business expense related to brand
image and client relations, thereby not only justifiable but absolutely
critical to business success. Thus far she is winning.
