Hell, the reason I have an H2 is so I can bring the family along while wheeling! If I was going to do otherwise, I would have bought a Rubicon and put the cash into hop ups for it.

PhilD, you are one cool guy, always thought so. My punch was only one line, but I was a bit worried that one punch might have been a bit too heavy for you. Your reply proved that I was right to know you are one cool guy standing tall above others, any other lesser men would be hurt and angry and drag it on.
I want to see picture(s) of neon light under Hummer, pleaseeee. I found a Hispanic installation place 20 miles away, the ad specifically say they do underbody neon kits. I called and he does not speak English, no matter, he will do. But I need to see some pictures first. Thanks.

Phil, with the exception of Hummer back-in accident(s) during the first month 17 months ago, I had no accident for 17+ years or longer, no ticket for 4 years and no ticket on record.
We have friends of all ages, but we also have many older friends (60-70), close personal friends who we meet frequently. The main reason is because many clubs and fraternities I belong to have more older members, younger people don't join groups or cannot afford to. When we walk into a ballroom of 500 people, we generally know the first name of 300-400+ people. I do not see the difference in ages, except I do enjoy the company of older and more stable people, and it is a good personal challenge to be with people who are wiser and more successful than I.

Everyday there are millions of people out there helping their comminuties and less fortunated ones. I was serving in St. Anthony's dinning room last week with my wife and 13 year old son. You can smell the piss in the food line. You are making fun of volunteers? you don't even know how stupid you are. It takes time from you work and family, it takes money to help, whether it is $10 or $1 million, if you are busy with mortgage, car payments, you don't have the freedom to leave work, it is a luxury you cannot afford. The saddest part for you is that you don't have the purity of heart to help others and your community.
There are a lot of young people involved, a lot of people in their 20s are joining the Freemasonry and local service clubs. Thousands are my fraternity brothers, judges, policemen, students, carpenter, mayors, senators, gasman, phone lineman, security guard, everyone of them swore to help me if I ask. Who do you have to drop everything on their hands and come help you when you need it? what friends do you have to drop everything in your hands and rush to their help?

He should be a Democratic politician- claiming to be of & for the people but reeking of elitism. His back-pedaling technique needs some works though.

If my memory serves me right, I do not recall any anti-SUV rally or activity or statement came out of San Francisco. I think that was a Hollywood driven act, with acts around the country. I personally never had a dirty look or any problem driving around the City and parked in many different areas, downtown, commercial, South of Market art, shopping, hippie, North Beach beat, Chinatown, gay Castro, soup kitchen slum and varies residential left or right neighborhoods. I rarely see Hummers in the suburbs, but always see many Hummer H2s in the City.

Was I Mr. Congeniality before I called you a worthless stupid piece of ****?
Is calling you a worthless stupid piece of **** real MAC?
Is there anything brilliant in calling you a worthless stupid piece of ****?
or is it bull**** calling you a worthless stupid piece of ****?
Did I dazzle anyone by pointing out you are a worthless stupid piece of ****?
Are you dazzled by being a worthless stupid piece of ****?
or are you baffled by being called a worthless stupid piece of ****?

Ok, if you want a serious underbody kit. Check this out:
ExtremeCarVideo
7 different colors in one package, 10 different display modes, including pulses to music. Capability to add up to 18tubes! Even wireless remote control of all the functions. And they are about 3 times brighter than neons.

Always calculated and intentional, never emotional.
I learned long ago in business that the only effective way to treat a bully is to bully back. 80% of the times, the bully crawl into the corner, as demonstrated here.
Once I snapped at a young smart-ass manager during a meeting, regretted it afterward, but I was shocked to know that everyone congratulated me after the meeting, it soon spread around like wildfire among associates even in other firms, everyone was so impressed and still talk about it few years later. They talked about the case like it was a badge of honor.

Every other aftermarket accessories costs more than this underbody remote neon kit, consider how dramatic the light is, it is a far better investment/return value. Such as compare with big offroad lights or brush guard, honestly how often do you use them? or do you really need all those extra stuffs?
I am not sure if the neon light is tacky, I may feel the same about all those add-on and chrome stuffs, but I respectfully withheld my opinion, not easy, many times I almost said something and I really want to, but I did not, yet. The neon is unconventional, but why is 4 offroad lights, overkill racks and huge extra bars okay? or why is super chrome everywhere not tacky?
Neon light is crazy, maybe I want to do it just for that reason, or maybe not. 
Let me see your pictures once you are done.

It is unlikely(80%) I'd get the neon but I might(20%). But my chance of buying a Hummer was 0%, buying a luxury sedan was 100%, I ended up buying a Hummer. You got to do some crazy unexpected paradigm shifting things to free up your mind and body, otherwise life gets staled and too comfotable in its usual track.
A mother at my son's school said to me at a party: "So you ARE the Hummer Guy! my son kept on talking about that Hummer Guy." From others' viewpoints, I am no longer who I was simply because I bought a Hummer, nobody (even old friends) remember I had nothing to do with Hummer just 15 months ago. I didn't plan on that, if I bought a S500, I would now be just another parent in a sea of Mercedes. I took a sharp turn back in Sept 02 in buying the Hummer, which was not a big deal to us at that time, but turned out to be a refreshing big deal.
There are a few places I can use the underbody neon.
1- Driving to the country clubs and lodges, there are long driveways. The guards at the security houses and the valet will freak out. Members may not like that, but maybe I don't care.
2- Driving in the hills near my house where there is almost no traffic and no cop.
Cheap thrill.
hummer33, which changing colors remote kit are you talking about? give me a link.
I am sure I don't want flashing strobe headlights, nor neon plate frame and all other neon crazy things, maybe just the changing colors underbody neon with remote.

Mac, backtracking with your double-speak again.

I am pretty open minded about these sort of things. I have known too many gays as friends, employees and consultants in the past years, they are no different than anybody else, if not nicer people. I was dead set against gay marriage, but last night when watching TV news, my wife and I talked about it briefly, in the end I decided it really doesn't matter to me, it is their business. I don't agree with it, don't touch me and my children, I don't think it is normal, but they deserve their freedom to choose.
I have a cousin who is a tough well known corp lawyer, volunteered 3 tours in Vietnam, requested out of HQ legal desk job for combat duties. Married with children and divorced. Few years ago he showed up with his boyfriend/partner in a family funeral and came out of the closet. I also personally knew several cases like that, left the wives and kids and turned gay or came out gay.
I remembered someone here proudly said he does not read any newspaper nor watch TV news. I cannot imagine that, how can anyone be ignorant and survive and proud of it? My daily morning pleasure is to have a cup of coffee, a smoke and read the entire newspaper.

I have a Red L.E.D underbody kit that changes many patterns and you can pick one you like. Its made by Valad. It is very nice and lights up the underbody/street very well have gotten many comments on it and lots of people love to just watch the different patterns.
