New Standards

or however that dang word is written! : ) Use this forum to discuss those things that are related to, directly, or indirectly, fly fishing, i.e., tackle, catalogs, single malt scotch, cigar preferences, pipes, camera gear, etc. This is sort of an off topic area but one related to bamboo and fly fishing.

New Standards

I generally consider myself a perfectionist...........But lately I've been thinking, if it's good enough for the girls that I go out with, then it's good enough for me. All things considered.... Form, fit and function first of course.

Good thinking. Life is full of compromises. My idea of the perfect car is the Ferrari 250 GT SWB; if I had held out for one, I'd still be walking.

I have been looking, just looking, at GTO Engineering in England who are now making handbuilt copies of the 250 SWB. There are a number of YouTube videos showing the cars being built and being driven. AH, the sound of a 12 cylinder Ferrari. Offered at 1 million per.
My compromise? I own a '64 Corvette, what I would love to own is a 1973 Daytona.

I know what you mean about new standards Kermit. I finally got a role in a porn movie. I play the husband who leaves for work.

Since the mid 60's I have wanted a mid 60's Lotus Elan -- in Lotus green and yellow with the off set white racing stripe.
I drive an Outback because I don't like to walk home in the snow.

Let us see some pictures of the girls you go out with, then we can make up our own minds.
