Default July 3rd is coming! Can you hold on?

Just over a week away until all is revealed! I think I can hold on!

Of course if i get to see the car in Danville or San Jose next week it may put me over the top. I drool and babble enough already, so I don't need any extra incentive.

SO what should I/we do while waiting? Obsessively scan the message boards for a trickle of information or new pics? Get more tips on Zaino? Wonder further about the cup holders, or stereo or wheels? Dammit, it's already starting!! I need help!

I think we all need help. I know I'm obsessing over the Z, but I don't care!

bathe.

mow the lawn.

reboot the computer.

Hey scaf...if you are going to post here...AT LEAST BE LUCID ... I mean your last post was complete gibberish...I mean...what does "mow the lawn" and "talk to people" actually mean. If you want your posts to be understood they must have the word Z or 350 in them.

I'm really not sure what those things mean robbyn. They are just things my wife says to me. I've even awoke from a deep sleep to find her whispering these same wierd sayings into my ear.

When I figure them out, I'll post an update.

Only 20+ times a day. I'm addicted to this site. Jay has done a fantastic job. If I don't get any info soon I might have to do things like mow the lawn.

Yes it's difficult. Especially when you put down a token deposit in November 2000 just prior to the concept unveiling. Sometimes waiting a long time makes the catch that much more rewarding.

I'm guessing, from what I've read hear and other places, that the wait will be very much worth it. I for one have never actually owned a sports car of any type and will am looking forward to having a little driving fun!

Actually interact with other humans?

Which would mean time away from the computer.

Which means no more cruising the message boards.

Which means no longer getting the up to the minute info on the cupholders!!!??

Are you all mad!!

Ladies and Gentlemen!

I am very excited to report the following!

I decided to go ahead and do those (4) things I posted above, and I am here to report......... They all relate to the 350Z! It's true! We can go on about life, and still never venture far from our main obsession. Let me explain.

First up; Bathing.

The key here is to use Zest. There is a big ole freakin' "Z" right on the bar of soap! Take your time. Enjoy being alone with your Zest. The experience is, well, I can't describe it here publicly. Trust me.

Next: Mowing the Lawn

Oh my Gosh! This is truly something you must, MUST do! On the top of my Yard Machine Mower, it says............. "5HP OHV". There's no debate! It is five horsepower. I didn't have to wait for any specs or crap - I own it, and it is 5HP. And lemme tell you; it hauls butt. This thing would go as fast as I was able to hold on. And when I got scared? I backed off,and it slowed down right in step with me.

Next: Re-booting computer

Okay. I admit. I haven't done this yet. I have no clue what my password is to this site, and I am afraid if I reboot, I'll lose my cookie, and never be able to return.

Next: Talking to People

This kinda goes hand-in-hand with mowing the lawn. You see, when I was mowing, my neighbor Paul came out (gawd...how he has changed in 3 months!). Anyway, He said "Hi", and I said "Hi". And then I realized.... I WAS TALKING TO A PERSON! I could hardly hold back my excitement! I said to him "Hey Paul. Howzit goin?". He said (I swear, no lie), he said "Good. You?" Nearly pissed my pants I was so elated. At this point, I called him over, and just for fun, we argued about the 0-60 time for my Yard Machine 5HP OHV lawn mower.

Whew,

What
A
Frickin'
Day

So there you all go. I hope this helps all of you. There can be Life while waiting for Z.

As for rebooting......first, I need to figure out how to get Jay to email me my password. Then.... I will be free to move about on this planet.

Jeff

Hey Scaf,

Sorry to tell you this, but my lawnmower is faster than yours, mine says 6HP!

..... But hold on, now I have to figure in the extra weight from the aero package and Bose system.....

.....plus I need to know whether your mower is 6mt or 5at....

aaahhhhhhh!!! I guess I just really need to know when my Z is gonna get here. I'm think I'm goin nuts just like everyone else!

You guys have seriously lost it! I suggest you go see "A Beautiful Mind" cause this is where you're headed.

You'll never find me posting frivolous, humor laden messages like these. I'm all business. And just to prove to you how man I am,

"Nissan, don't release the specs for another year."

Let's see who cracks first.

BTW: I'm off to watch the sky for a few more hours to see how many Z shaped clouds I can spot. I've already seen 287 and I'm hoping to get this number up to 295.

I hope these forums keep going strong after we get the specs. I don't know what I would do at work if I didn't have these forums to read for 8 hours!
