Thanks for letting me borrow it. Last night I drove it down to Tennessee and took Hayley out in it. She said she had "never been in a car like that before" and was glad I didn't bring the Corvette instead.

As I said before, this is "the gift that keeps on giving."

With fewer people getting married and having kids in Japan over the years, one company thought it prudent to embrace the future and recognize marriages between men and their anime "waifus".

In otaku culture, the term "waifu" refers to an anime girl whom a fan has taken a specific liking to. "Waifu" stems from the English word "wife" but is given a Japanese pronunciation. The counterpart word "husbando" for male characters has a similar use and origin.

According to a special Gatebox website, interested parties may submit their marriage registration for the company's recognition. The site even provides a marriage registration form to download, fill-up and submit.

Since anime fans typically have more than one waifu, Gatebox took this into consideration. They specifically mentioned that only one waifu could be registered. This means fans will really have to think long and hard on which waifu to officially tie the knot with.

Apart from registering for marriage, Gatebox also accepts job applications. Lucky applicants who get hired and have successfully registered their waifu marriage are entitled to receive a monthly stipend of 5,000 yen (US $60.65) on top of their salary. (Me: I'll try not to spend it all at Starbucks. )

To sweeten the deal, these new Gatebox employees could also take the day off to celebrate their waifu's birthday. Anime characters in Japan often have an official birthday which fans celebrate each year.

It's worth noting that Gatebox also happens to sell a product called Gatebox Virtual Home Robot. The device projects a small holographic image of an anime girl which responds to voice commands, such as the hologram artificial intelligence Joi featured in "Bladerunner 2049".

The characters act like virtual assistants which can turn on lights, appliances, play music and keep in contact with the owner through a smartphone app.

I trust you found out the benefits of those long bench seats. They sure beat the modern bucket seats.

Our date went so well I decided to get rid of the ZR-1 and buy this ’71 Ford LTD Wagon. Powered by a 400 cubic inch 6.6L Cleveland, it can carry up to 10 people. I could take all my girlfriends out! And it has vinyl “bench seats” plus an authentic ‘70’s “CB” radio. Wonder how fast it would go?

The Ford LTD and Galaxy were also used by many law enforcement agencies including state highway patrols. A heavily modified 1971 Galaxy 500 with a four speed manual and 429 with dual carbs was featured in the Burt Reynolds movie “White Lightning” from 1973. I have seen this movie on TV several times. Jennifer Billingsley plays his girlfriend. They track down the evil sheriff and moonshiners who killed his brother. My favorite of his movies. Second is “The Longest Yard.” Worth watching.

The last picture is another shot of ila’s “Domino’s Special.” Thanks for letting me borrow it…

Station wagons - the mini-vans of the 50s through 70s. It was always an adventure to ride in the very rear seats when travelling along not so smooth highways.

Lucky was the teenager that could borrow dad's station wagon to take his girlfriend to the drive-in. There was lots of room in the back to stretch out.

You're taking really good care of my 'hot wheels.' I think I'll leave the car with you until you find 3 more wheel covers. I'm glad to see you've got a proper door handle on the rear driver's side. I hope you can find one for the driver's door now. Oh, and don't forgot to repair the rip in the vinyl of the rear seat.

No problem. Will do. Sorry... I think it must have been a sharp belt buckle or a stiletto heel.

Of course Nicole Ferri is one of my "dream girls" and belongs here as much as anyone. I have posted many pictures of her in this thread and elsewhere on TLB. Nicole is 25 and was a finalist for "Miss Trans Argentina 2013."

(Now my translation may be off just a little but I'm sure in the last picture Nicole is saying "I want my friend Andy from the US to leave his wife and come to live with me in Argentina... )

This was posted on Reddit so you know it's true...

Its not about a guys personality nowadays. Nowadays it's about big dicks, good looks, money, and being a shitty person.

Decided to have surgery. Bet I'll get lots of dates now. Sold the ZR-1 and my 6,000 square foot home in Zionsville to pay for it. Fuck, who needs those things when you have a 20" dick?
