Engine dress up kits made of shiny chrome & sealed in blister packs adorned many walls at local speed shops.

Hard kits to build as a kid helped me learn patience..

[A modeler named mike]

Patience for patients waiting to see a doctor is a must if you want your Blood pressure to read normal.

"Normal" is sometimes a good thing, but it can also be stifling, hidebound, and negative towards imagination and innovation.

[thatz4u]

  innovation : a new idea, method, or device : NOVELTY

[1972coronet]

Novelty is an innovation of the Latin root word nova

[Ace-Garageguy]

"Nova" supposedly wasn't that hot a name for the little Chebby in Spanish-speaking markets, as it can be translated as "doesn't go" or "not going".

     Mexico is where we get the expression "chili today, but hot tamale".

      

[89AKurt]

Tamale down in the shade.

[A modeler named mike]

Shade of a tree is nice in the summer months but when fall comes it's rake city.

[Ace-Garageguy]

City nights in low-key, sophisticated, well dressed, articulate and urbane companionship are a thing of the distant past.
