Now now Steelcomp...

Cranky was simply suggesting that FE and other big block Ford owners are simply of a different mindset than he is, and that while he appreciates their blue oval pedigree he simply prefers the simplicity of engine bay fitment and overall dynamics of the smaller blocked engines for his chosen venue of enjoyment...that being open track days at the multitude of tracks found within driving distance of his beloved New Jersey. That being said, he has an utter disdain for those folks who prefer to socialize and share their love for these fine articles of Americana at car shows, or for those folks who do receive no small degree of enjoyment from an occasional spinning of ones tires on public roads. There are those, of course, who wholeheartedly disagree with the rather limited view of life as we know it as propounded by this individual and his fellow travelers, although some within their ranks have been known to partake of the alternative forms of enjoyment so eloquently argued against by the Cranky One. Some view his proclamations as prima facie evidence of their perception that he bears a remarkable resemblece to a rectal orifice, but many who have had occasion to have social (or other forms of) intercourse with him know this to be a rebutable presumption given his behind the scenes giggling when he has achieved a nice soup from stirring the inevitable pot which one finds so full of ingredients at this meeting place of varied minds. A rascal of dizzying complexities, our dear subject can be counted on to take a firm stance in the middle of a field of honor, though he sometimes does find himself standing forth quite alone with no challengers to face him since the field has been well plowed over so many times that the topsoil has quite simply blown away. I harkin you back to the old days (a few pages back) where you may have found yourself swinging at similar windmills only to have settled in to a less rabid form of exchanging views with the common folk herein. Please be aware and know, that our dear subject is still swinging away and will not rest until he has stilled the wind that causes those bladed devils to continue turning in his mind. I bid you and he allow each other safe passage as you come across each other in the wilderness.
