    Yeah, he knew. I'm guessing he couldn't resist the temptation of being an omnipotent dictator. ;)

    Absolutely, he knew. Zeus's one grandson with human blood.

    I believe Tony thinks his Priapus carries Tony's blood in it.

    Who wouldn't know, unless you grew up under a rock.

    I think "Priapus" is the most perfect name for a Prius, anyway... if you consider that those who drive large, mega-SUV-type vehicles are, um, compensating. ;)

    I think Tony definitely knew what he was proclaiming...

    My proclamation to the compensators has always been:

    WWPD
    What Would Priapus Drive?

    Read the Priapus reference in this article: Green Future Vehicles Riding High on Hybrids

    Anyone who can have over 100,000 posts has got to have some kind of juice flowing in them.

    Oh yeah, I was playing with Moderator rights and found out that I can alter the number of posts a person has. I have no idea why, but to make it obvious, I tacked on 100,000 posts to Priapus.

    But that's why I have that ID. It's a non-Mod ID that I use for testing. Also, the "Mod view" of the forum is different and sometimes when someone asks a navigation or usage question I want to make sure I see what they see.

    As for the actual answer to the poll question, here's a post from 2004 when I took delivery. The picture is missing but you can tell that from the beginning I knew exactly what to call him. http://priuschat.com/forums/prius-main-forum/3605-schaefer-takes-prius-witnesses-wave.html

    Well, I think if I ever owned a cat, it would have to be yours.

    But only if the duck is included.
