everything, performance is nothing.

To whoever cares,
I found it interesting that many people on this list were incensed when I
kiddingly harrased one of its members because of asking a question about the
towing capacities of Audi's. I received at least 20 angry responses. After
explaining that it was a joke many still found it neccessary to express their
disapproval.
Yet a comment like the one above goes uncontested. I found that
enlightening. This attitude should not be surprising. It seems in this day
and age "things'" seem to be more important than people. I mean people don't
like to have their cars vallet parked when they dine out, for fear their
precious possesion might be damaged, meanwhile their children are left in the
care of some Nanny(aka stranger). I wonder how many people would lend their
Audi, BMW, Benz etc. to the baby sitter, yet they freely hand over what is
supposed their most precious possesion.
Well I think I'll get off my soap box now. Take it for what it's worth, or
don't. It's just my opinion.

P.S. my brother-in-arms Sean(turbo2s) just asked me if he could hand over his
exwife to one of these Nanny's( aka child molesters). I say YES. Call it pay
back.
BTW before I offend anyone else, no I don't think all Nanny's are child
molesters. But I think thier is something wrong with a fifty year old guy
called Janet that wants to babysit your child.
