car?

Got something to say, but it's not classic related? Here's the place to discuss. Also includes the once ever-so-popular word association thread... (although we've had to start from scratch with it - sorry!)

I think it looks like a 1965(ish) Lincon Continental (like the car JFK was in when he got shot)

I searched for that and all I can say is that it's not really suitable for children.

Have you forgotten that once we were brought here we were robbed of our names,robbed of our language,we lost our religion,our culture,our God? And many of us by the way we act,we even lost our minds.

I remember the Hippo & Dog version of "The lion sleeps tonight", which was one of the videos that came ready installed on the first colour touch screen Sony Ericsson smartphone, the P800, back in 2001, I still have a copy somewhere. :oops:
