Default Full Metal Scion!!!

I read this creed from a post that fr130 had written in, and I want to give 100% props and credit to him for this. But I just wanted to post this cuz I thought it was the coolest thing I had heard all day. It's an excerpt from the movie Full Metal Jacket. But it pertains to his Scion xB named Charlene,,Here goes, and thx fr130=== edit from the Film:

This is Charlene. There are many like it, but
this one is mine. Charlene is my best friend. It
is my life. I must master her, as I must master
my life. Without me Charlene is useless. Without Charlene,
I am useless. I must race Charlene true. I
must corner straighter than the Element who is
trying to kill me. I must cut off the Element before he
cuts me off. I will.

Before God I swear this creed. Charlene and
myself are defenders of all Scions. We are
the masters of the Element. We are the saviours
of my life. So be it .. . until there is no Element
...but Scions. Amen.

:D Thanks for the props, Nairod. That's one old post too. FMJ is one of the best war movies of all time, IMO along with Patton.

My xB is really Charlene, #2. I dump Charlene, #1 for the xB.
