I am standing by in anticipation of the upgrade to my club membership, and the attendant emoluments, that automatically come to those of us who have joined this exclusive group (loose women, free horsepower, etc).

 

Mazda are you reading this???

 

Obviously I have had fun. I find it a refreshing alternative to work, where (like now) I invariably am when I visit this site.

So Mike what do you do for work and this will help you get to the 2K post.

Thx for the excuse to push on to 2000 Martin:).

 

I am an attorney in a 3 person law office. Since it's a small operation, I am often here, metaphorically bailing water, breaking rocks and other stimulating activity. So I frequent this, and other car sites, as a break from both the tedium,and the excitement, of a bustling law practice.

 

My firm does two types of law: we help veterans obtain disability benefits from the VA AND, we help regular folks get disability benefits from Social Security.

 

Why do people need attorneys to get what's theirs, you ask logically? Because the laws on their behalf are not self-executing. So it helps to have an informed person on their side shepherding things along. And, as you can probably appreciate, the bureaucracy these folks deal with is not exactly user friendly.

 

We all know of all the hassles of getting our cars registered at the BMV. Now imagine what it would be like if their rules filled hundreds of books and tens of thousands of dollars were at stake.

 

The worst of the bunch is the VA. We have had several VA cases take 20 (Yes as in 4x5) years to get resolved, with the VA kicking, screaming, obfuscating, misleading and outright lying along the way.

 

There you have it, and I am already 1 post closer to 2000:)>

How do you guys think Frankn7 ended up with 480hp? I've been stealing all your free horsepower. But please, keep the loose women part quiet. :rofl:

 

Mike, congrats!

Damn, I knew there was a reason my car was getting slower and slower.

I think Mike should lobby for easier inspection in the state of CT for kit cars *hangs head*

[beagley]

Maybe he could open his own firm helping all of the 7 owners get out of speeding tickets and whatnot..... sounds like it could be pretty lucrative.

 

Seriously though, thanks for what you do regarding helping people with the VA and all, I'm not a big fan of bureaucracy.
