I was just given a thumbs down by the passenger of the car driving next to me, I think he heard my BOV and didn't like the sound of it one bit. I laughed when it happened, but now that I'm home my gears are grinded and I wanna punch the guy in his face.
... then again I'm glad I laughed it off. This guy wanted to get a rise outta me and I didn't give it to him at the time.

Sorry, can't agree on Chili's, Denny's, Perkins, Village Inn, Applebee's, or TGI Fridays. Love all of those places and eat at them regularly, though Denny's, Perkins and Village Inn are usually only for breakfast, and I'll admit there have been some lackluster meals at times, and Mimi's Cafe has way better breakfast food. TGI Fridays is overpriced but still good. We'd eat there more often if there was one closer than Woodmen/I-25.

But Chili's is probably my favorite restaurant. Just ate there last night. Usually get the Mushroom Jack Fajitas (not on the menu anymore but they'll still make them) but last night got the Chicken Club Tacos. Mmmmmm.

I have a gripe with fellow Miata owners who instead of complimenting and treating their fellow miata owners with respect, just talk trash about every miata they see and think that only theirs is the true jewl of the nile. Come on!!!! We must band together and topple the Mustang Axis!!!!

Agreed tut. I always delete that before sending in any app that tries to put one on there.

I almost replaced the "sent from my iphone" with "pardon my spelling, this was typed on an iphone" but decided to rid of it all-together...

I replaced it with "sent via mobile" to inform the recipient that I am not using Outlook or at my desk. The "sent with my xyz" does get old

I work in IT and have had numerous occasions of people calling when I didn't have it on there. So it's easier to have some sort of automatic response when I reply instead of typing out "I am not at my desk and will call you at XYZ"... especially when the phone only has one signature for all email accounts setup on it.

^^^ Ah, I see. I can generally tell when someone's responding from their phone, because the text/lettering seems different.

For me, it's always been more beneficial when people don't know where I'm responding from:ph34r::lol:
