By | September 27, 2008

Nadine and Mark dropped over last night.  As usual when the men get together they are into cars and machines-  computers and since Mark’s cousin bought a nice looking expensive car, DB and Mark are constantly talking about these spendy cars.  Sometimes I wonder how these folks are able to pay for such expensive cars [...]
