OK, OK.  I get it. Your clever (and hilarious) wordsmithing above
appears to chastise me for belittling juvenile sentiments.  I assure
you that is not the case.  There is nothing wrong with flames on the
hot rod!  It's strictly a matter of personal taste.  Hey, I still feel
like an eight-year-old most of the time anyway -- thank God.

<Stomping my tiny feet>  I still want an auto-open Cuda Maxx !!!!
