You should have gone down the road about 5 minutes to the galleria RR/Bentley dealership. They always have ferraris, porsches, astons, and ususally some lambos too.

Damn, too bad I missed the exotics (I was hoping this place would have an SLR) and the RR dealer too! Oh well though. As it was, I had 10 minutes to spend at this dealer as I was on my way out of Houston, so I wouldn't have had time for another dealer, maybe next time... 8)

Actually, last time I went to Park Place they had a black SLR and it looked spectacular. Also, I actually know the guy who owns the RR/Bentley dealership, his name is Tillman Frattita and he basically owns the entire Kemah boardwalk, forgive the spelling of his name. I know him because his daughter was classmates and friends with my sister. I used to go to the dealership and talk to the salesman and they would let me into the underground garage so that I could look at and sit in the cars

Since we are name dropping more accurately Tilman Fertitta is founder and CEO of the Landry's Restaurant chain that is now very large and powerful, and Kemah Boardwalk is one of their properties, but in the grand scheme of things smal fry these days considering how Landry's have expanded.

For those that are interested you can read the entire story here http://www.landrysrestaurants.com/

Here is an example of what this gent does - he ahs the midas touch - http://www.landrysrestaurants.com/pa.../03dp_0306.htm

WTF are you smoking ?? Some of that College Station Weed?

- I was simply correcting your incorrect assesment of whom and what he is. Landry's is currently a publicly traded company so amy and all of his ownership is refelcted in voting power related to his stock ownership - if you really want to be technical

If you are going to name drop, at elast do it accurately

Anywhooooo - What is up with folks thinking "just because you know so and so" then everyone else around you must be jealous? really odd and shallow way to go through life - thinking people are all judging themsleves against you and that they are jeaulous/proud/happy/sad based upon that assesment - as I say I was merely presenting the correct facts pertaining to the man.

Read into it what ever gets your rocks off

Calm down bud, I was just playin with you. I wasn't rying to be insulting, but just trying to get a rise out of you b/c I know it's so easy to do...

I wasn't trying to make anyone jealous or anything, I was just saying that I know the guy. It's not like I'm saying he lets me drive the cars, I was making a statement, so calm down.

I figured sprinkling the reply full of smileys would let you know my supercilious remark was in reply to your supercilous remark -

but I guess the superciliousness was disguised by weed you're smoking

:shock:

Hopefully this one won't be misread...

Well - I guess the upside is that at least you are a clean fellon

Actually there are only 2 folks whom piss me off - they know who they are - so for all the rest of those 12,000+ posts they are pretty much made tongue in cheek and with a smile...

I'm goin to sleep. Good night boys.

I guess that myst be prison lingo ...

...and as for prison lingo :fuck:

- Hey no worries... I subscribe to the "don't ask, don't tell" policy

hehe
