Imagine my surprise when I got a call last night from one of my oldest surviving friends...

It was Big Jim's brother Mike, asking me what kind of...Ummmmmmm..."favours" I had to do, to get Suzy in the readers rides section...:_thinking

I had no idea that I was in Petersen's was my reply, nor do I remember ever submitting any info to them for consideration...:_confused

I didn't really believe him, but curiosity got the better of me & I went to my local grocer & looked for myself.

Darned if the dude wasn't right, Suzy got the top 1/2 of pg 26...:mbrasd:+:dance:

Anyone have any ideas on how this might have come to be???...:confused:

Too bad they didn't find a photo with the new hood scoop & the spikes on the rims!!!

Grats Dub. Now you're the most famousest person I know. What's next, are you going to show up on the "People of Walmart" website?

I'm also curious who submitted Dub's Pirate 4Xcross????

Also, I like how the Mazda truck in the lower right corner is called "Inspired Isuzu." If anything other than Mazda, it's a Ford before Isuzu. oops. :laughing:

Every time I hear of the POW website I flash to a visual of Jack Black in Nacho Libre leaning against the wall saying "These are my nice stretchy pants!"

Now you've put Dub right next to him:(

I was kinda picturing him going into the WM shoe department with his gorilly feets on & asking if they have any shoes his size.:)

WAY KOOL! :thumbup:

It looked very familiar, so I reviewed my 4 yrs of Moab pics to see if I took it maybe.....

'09 - No Ron/John skid plate, no ND plate, no skull, amber triangular fender lights, very normal spare on roof
'10 - Had Ron/John front skid plate, a ND plate on front, a skull on top, smoked triangular fender lights, very normal spare on roof
'11 - Had Ron/John front skid plate, black DUB plate, skull on top, very normal spare on roof
'12 - Had Ron/John front skid plate, black DUB plate, no skull, new red rimmed wheels, monster spare on roof


my guess...I think it's from '09 or earlier....and maybe on the obstacle shown in 2011.....

Dub's only comment when I sent him a poster sized print of this was:

"DAYUM! Suzy has had more periods than a Hemmingway novel"

It would take a hell of a lot more than what you guys have been able to come up with on this website to make me lose my sense of humor.

As a matter of fact, it's been making me laugh the whole time... :_beer:

The thing is, it's THOSE kinds of assumptions (that I'm the one doing the instigating) that make me laugh. :p

X 2...:thumbup:.:thumbup:

And thanks to all for the kudos...I'd STILL like to know who submitted it...:_thinking

Though, considering my ummmmmm...."lifestyle", it's theoretically possible that i filled out the questionnaire some yrs ago & promptly forgot about it...:slap:.:mbrasd:.:laughing:

That right there is the best part about having Alzheimer's, you have so many new experiences and meet so many new people every day...

Sincere appologies to anyone whos lives are touched by the disease.

Yup, saw that when I got my issue in the mailbox. Thats cool.

OK, so I just bought the issue too, and I would REALLY like to know who it was as well, especially since it is MY PHOTO that they used. Not that I care so much, it's awesome that it is in there, however it would have AT LEAST been nice of them to ask permission to use it first. Now, Dub, I would imagine it must have been you (in which case, all is fine with me), especially since the photo is an un(web)published photo of mine from Moab 2008, of which I would assume I gave to you on disc way back when....

Here's the original.
