I am in receipt of the current issue of the magazine. I was quite surprised when on the way home from the post office my nephew showed me the picture on page 76. My nephew asked me if that is a picture of a man urinating on cacti.

I have been in possession of the magazine for a few weeks now and I just can not believe what I am seeing. Could you please clarify what is going on in this picture? And if this picture was meant to be humorous, I do not find it to be. I am usually not conservative, but this picture is in very bad taste. And if it was printed as an error, the I hope nothing like this ever happens again.

What magazine and what month? The latest issue of GRM is August 2011, and there are no photographs of anything on page 76.

Well now I am interested. What is the explanation for this? What's going on here? More importantly is.......why haven't I received my August issue yet?

Or is this a re-hash of the cross country road trip from many years back wherein there was a picture of Denny(?) pissing on something on the side of the road. Or maybe it was someone's bare butt. Was it to fetch the Ranchero? Seemed to start a mess on the board then.

Personally, I could give a E36 M3. Add humor to your life man, or turn the page.

Funny, I don't have the latest issue, yet. But I was tempted earlier to make the remark that this "type" of picture has appeared before in GRM. A few YEARS ago, there was a story about a trip taken (if I remember correctly) from one coast to another. It was a story about a Honda project car to be? In that article, was a picture taken in the Arizona or perhaps California desert where one of the drivers is photographed taking an "impromptu pit stop" against a cactus.

If this is the story I'm thinking of, it is SEVERAL years old. And no, GRM does not normally, nor did it ever again, print a picture like this. I'm going out on a limb, but I think this story appeared between 5 and 10 years ago.

So a bodily function that everyone; whether in their right mind or not, does, is something to be appalled and flabbergasted by? I find it humorous and it's something I would do if the circumstances called for it. At least it wasn't a picture of a giant steaming pile on the side of the road.

I draw the line firmly at #2. That's when sorta funny becomes berkeleying disgusting. There is nothing funny about a human bowel movement.

Thai Corner in Lake Mary, not to to far from the GRM HQ, delicious Thai Food. I would eat there everyday if what you are talking about wasn't the case.

Am I missing something here? Did this really happen or is this an example of internet sarcasm which you can never really tell if it's true or not. Seriously, what's up?
