Hmm....just realized that I have 2 AW accounts
 

when I checked to see my total # of posts, it was at 12, which is slightly less than 3,000+. I'm a doofus sometimes. So now I know why the threads I track at work aren't highlighted at home & vice-versa....duh! Anyway, I had to reconfigure the secondary account's e-mail addy & screen name, so I could reclaim this one. I don't know how to delete accounts, and after STFA, evidently no one else does either. Maybe I subconsciously wanted to be a noob again.....or maybe not.

You're still a n00b even with 3000+ posts ;-)
 

Then again I'm a n00b as well.

looking at your car makes me a little mad i didnt hold out for another lazer red
 

...lazer is sexy!

LOL, I know.
 

I don't post too much anymore, but am always lurking this forum. I used to be a devout 12 Valve Development Forum guy, but I got rid of the B5 A4. Still miss that car; it had 225k miles & still ran very well, & I kid you not that it still had the original clutch in it.

I love the color; it seems to be a head turner
 

It's caught the eye of some of the Lotus, Aston Martin, & Ferrari drivers around here. Down side is that everyone wants to race all the time. Especially the buttstain GT guys.

Saw one the other day, and it didn't fail to turn my head.
 

Then again, any color but Canvas Beige makes me happy.

I haven't seen too many Canvas Beige Audis in person
 

Silver & black seem to be the dominate colors around here. IMO the white USPs are pretty dang sweet looking too.

BTW, I saw an earlier post by you on another thread & have been hesitant to ask, but what does FTW mean? I'm usually pretty good w/ acronyms being former military & all, but this one stumps me. Maybe I'm just getting too old :-/ Given the context I assume it's not the proverbial F The World variety.

Hehehehe...I laugh because I spent half my time decyphering these acronyms.
 

I believe it means "For the Win." Probably a reference to Hollywood Squares (e.g. "I'll take Whoopi Goldberg for the win.")

As for military acronyms... I'm a Federal contractor. My first few months in Washington, I was clueless. And now I'm moving back and working with DoD, and you have the advantage over me in that arena!

Oh, and if you click on the make/model link in my sig, there's more Canvas Beige Avant goodness, if you like that sort of thing. (For me, the color is a cross I bear, overridden by the rest of the car, which I love.)

ugh.. lazer 1.8t USP is exactly what i wanted but theyre just so rare. Jealous--->

Sorry for the late response; I've been out of town w/ my job
 

I still use a lot of acronyms because I'm still a federal employee, just not military anymore. I'm very proficient in DoD's acronyms. Just don't ever let anyone tell you to get them an ID-10t identification tag. If you paid attention, it spells out "idiot." Also watch out for 50 yards of flight line, a bucket of prop wash, or my personal favorite: go get the key for the plane. At one of my old agencies, we had a Strategic Plan Implementation Team (SPIT). I could go on for hours.....
