Put a rag soaked in ether under your gas pedal and push on it hard.

Oh: watch out for the bats.
There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge.

Nice to know someone was paying attention.

Again, watch out for the bats, Shtles.

Jeep salesman, photographer and YouTuber. Between the three I'm able to scratch together a living, but with lots of flexibility built in.
