I was going through some old diecast cars, to downsize the collection, and I found this ... uhhhh ... GEM. A 2000 Chevy Astro Dub City edition.

There was a time in my life, that if I found a GM vehicle diecast that I didn't have, I bought it. This is, shall we say, not my style. It never was my style, but it is actually a pretty well detailed piece.

I'm posting this to Oppo, instead of LALD, so that you would hopefully see this Logan. If you want it, you can have it. I believe the DUB graphic would come off with some acetone.

One way or another, it's not going to stay here.

Do what I did when I found a pair of 1/24 Dub Escalades in my garage. Put ladyfingers in it and blow it up, then when the plastics catches fire, let it burn to the ground.

Thanks for thinking of me man, but no thanks. That's a little too, uh, interesting for my tastes.

No worries! Just wanted to offer it to you. Can't figure out why I ever bought the thing anyways.

The same reason I question why I have a black model Charger on huge chrome wheels with DUB across the back window.

Fireworks are illegal in Illinois (lame!). Not that I care, it just makes getting them more trouble than it's worth to me.

Yeah, pretty much.

I'm well aware that fireworks are illegal in Illinois. That's why the people I visited in Illinois over the summer were so grateful for me bringing my stash from Nebraska. Hooray for legalizing fireworks four years ago!

Now, about that marijuana ban...

As for their neighbors...

Neighbors are always another story.

I grew up 3 blocks from our town's police station. My dad got a big load of fireworks from an employee who made a "run" to Indiana. Dad decided to light off a 96 shot roman candle. It lasted so long, the cops just followed it to our house. He got a stern talkin' to.
