Plus the fact that you had to tune it practically each time you drove it. <g> I have a friend who owned a Ferrari Testarossa (Red Head) in the 80's. A comprehensive tuneup cost him around $3,000. It required that at least once a year (although he didn't drive it much) plus a great number of minor mechanical procedures. It was like having a gorgeous, expensive mistress.

Fast start, fast finish. It doesn't take long these days. Justice and Happy Hour going on early hiatus Posted Sep 24th 2006 1:01PM by Brett Love Happy Hour castAnd here we go. If you work on a network television series, one of the worst things you can hear is that your show is going 'on hiatus'. Sure, every once in a while that just means that the show is taking a little break. But more often than not it's the PC way for executives to tell you that the ratings numbers suck out loud and you need to start looking for a new gig. With that in mind, Fox has placed Justice and Happy Hour on an early hiatus. Early because it was expected that most of the network's shows would get a little break when the baseball playoffs take over the schedule. But Happy Hour and Justice will be starting their break early, being replaced by repeats of 'Til Death and House. Right now, the Fox website says that Happy Hour will return Nov.2, with no word on when Justice is supposed to resume. Of course, this makes the TV Squad contest to pick the first show to get canceled a whole big ball of fun. We'll have to wait and see if these shows are officially canceled. Stay tuned.
