2009 is shaping up to be a tough year for play thing market.
So, some predictions for end of the year 2009?
1) Ford or GM go BK? EDIT
2) Price of unleaded gas?
3) Dow Jones Industrials number?
4) Price of a nice used ERA 427 a good spec build?
5) Unemployment %?
6) Inflation or deflation? What % rise or decline?
7) Price of gold per ounce?
8) Evan sell his car?
9) Ol' Shel make it another year?
10) Excaliber's final post count on 12-31-09?

My persosnal opinion is that I find it totally wrong to say that 2 of the Club Cobra Sponsors will not survive, they both have ads posted all over the place here and they are both great cars!! What the fvck........they are spending $$$$ on this site and I do not think we need to scare potential buyers.

Might be better to ask which of the Big Three won't survive or which banking institution will fold.

That follow up doesn't justify offering up the negative inflection and ugly implication's on another mans business, especially when considering the observations are pure speculation.
There are those out there shopping for their 09' Cobra purchase.
Do you really believe that the structuring of a guessing game as to whether another mans biz is going under or not is interesting, helpful, or fun?

How uplifting to a guy busting his ass trying to make a living and keep his company and livelihood above water to log onto CC, where he advertises, and view a thread with his companies name listed as one of those "going under".

Extremely poor taste and plain out mean Karma.

Bnewell was all over it in his observation, an edit is in order.

What lineslinger said, plus...

I thought the only people who did these "time capsules" were high school cheerleaders. Y'know, "Will Nancy and Todd still be a couple?", "Who will be the captain of the Football Team?", etc.

Different context. Same nonsense.

jshel1 11-27-2008 04:01 PM

Question #1 is really hard to resist, but I am going to none the less.

Now to the real meat...
Nancy and Todd will still be together and their daughter will be the captain of the football team.

I don't recall which team Nostradamus or George Orwell cheered for?
Question #1 edited, even though people here probably work for GM or Ford.

If you are concerned for those working for one of the big three, why pose the question?
