My group was the last group to arrive at the Inn at Berkeley Springs, WV for our annual Spring Fling meet. There were 31 cars in the meet, and my group, coming for New England, New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania arrived last.

When I got to the desk to check into the Inn, the young woman behind the counter handed me a slip of paper and asked that I mark down something to identify my car. She said, "We have a lot of Hondas here today, and they all look the same. We need some way to differentiate yours from the others." "Thats easy", I said as I grabbed the pen, "mine is the fastest one". I don't think she has figured it out yet. I marked the paper, in the space that says color, "Fast Sebring Silver".

A couple of months ago the SolFL group went to the international autoshow. We all park in the 3 story parking garage across from the convention center and we have a good time. When we leave one of the S2k members throws away the parking ticket and guess what, the lady at the exit explains that you need to pay the full price of parking for the full day if you do not have one. After about 5min of arguing he pays the money to the fat b1tch and leaves a huge cloud of tire smoke. Anyways i pull up to the lady on the power trip and i give her my ticket while she is ranting and raving about how the guy had such a nice car and how he cant drive for crap. When she opens the gate for me i yell to her "HE MEANT TO BURN OUT YOU FAT -blam-!"
And you wonder why people think we're all pricks.

Yesterday, I stop in an Autozone to buy some license plate bolts to replace the crappy looking ones that came with my MY05 and which will work with the frame bolt covers I have, and while I am standing in line to pay for them an employee says "look at that silver gray car out there, it looks sharp, is that a Porsche?"

One would think that a person who works at a car supply store would know the difference between a Honda and a Porsche.

Thank god I was buying only license plate bolts.

At the UBAB when we got to lake geneva a girl and her date (looked like they were going to prom) parked in between some s2ks. When they got out of their car she said "Aww honey you split up the porsches"

I just tried not to laugh, I'm sure she doesn't know any better.

I got a great one....

Pulling into Home Depot to visit my buddy who works there, some guy in the parking lot is watching me park, and as I get out of the car he says:

"Wow, thats the new Saturn Sky! Pretty nice lookin' car!"
"No, not a saturn, its the Honda"
"Oh yeah, I guess that would explain the H on the front!"
"Yeah........"

This maybe the first of many references to the saturn sky. This sucks!
