I like the stang, thats nice...what year was it? looks like 86 or somewhere round there

^certainly hope u mean '68.... lol

idk what year it was, but the owner decided instead of putting up for sale adds in the paper, he'd riv it around town...26k and that puppy is yours.

1) seriously, stop callin yourself 'migga'
I like the stang, change of color and it'd be extremly nice

i miss lake george, i went to u.albany and i spend alot of weekends at the great escape and the miniture golf cousres.

Cool pics, diggin the sepia. Looks like a great place to be!

Nice pics Migga

>
DB, the name "migga" wasnt somthing migel though of himself one day sitting in front of the 'puter.
it was given to him by a group of friends, at a meet started thru THIS site.
got a problem with that, look elsewhere.


Migga, sweet pics.
a bit of a thing for the B&W pics?
good job.

Nice pics Migga. You should have bought that Celica, took it outside for a photoshoot, then returned it.

>
You guys know that Migga ish is dead wrong. Its one step behind calling each other nigga or ******, and thats not gonna fly. Not here, not anywhere. I'm sure this is not that kind of forum, so depending on how much you all love this site and are dedicated to it, I'm sure the right decision will be made. I hope there is no need to discuss why the term[s] nigga or ****** are not acceptable...

2. Don't post pornography, spam, racist material, or anything illegal. These things will not be tolerated, and will get you banned from the forums.

why is everyone getting so off topic..?
the pictures are nice, but why did you get kicked out of the store for taking a picture?

ugh -- i don't think the word migga is derogatory in any sense. it's his nickname. tis all.

I disagree Jen... I think it carries prominent racial implications... I think it's also very evident when actually using the word "migga" that it carries those implications; shown best by "56k... migga what?" If you or anyone for that matter tries to tell me otherwise i'll have to throw up the BS flag

I'm gonna have to agree with Dustin, if no racist comment is implied by the word/nickname, I smell BS.

3.0mp

what kind of camera?

ok ignoring everything between my post and the most recent.

its a JVC Everio HDD HardDisc Camcorder, does nice stills, but even BETTER video. I am very impressed.

BTW its 2.0mp for stills.

DB, lovo:
you need to get over yourself, this has NOTHING to do with race/
if you smell BS, its cause its in your pants.
move on, and stay on topic.

Love the pics Miggalito

I should be going up there in August for my anniversary still deciding what's a good place to go too.

^lake george would be a good trip. You and Chris would have a good time.

Great shots! Man, i miss the lakes.

BTW, we use the term "miga" as friend(female type). Short for "Amiga". Of course, its pronounced ameega, but when you write it out.....

>
LOL you must look sooooo dangerous mate . BTW. Nice pics and great choice about camcorder (I have the same one )

btw.: about those "words"... If Migga is bad to say/write... you should stop using words like "beach", "come" or names like "Dick", "Hunt" (Especially "Mike Hunt") and I don't know what ever else should sound similar to any "slang" word . It's nonsense folks you talking about here...

>
beach, come, dick, hunt have all been socially accepted and have their own spots in the dictionary for the correct meaning... Mike Hunt infers nothing racial at all, just immaturity... Migga has racial implications regardless of what you would like to think, just because you say someone gave it to him as a nickname doesn't make it alright. Originally I thought I might have been overreacting a bit, so I sent the link to a few of my closest friends *whom are black* and they fully agreed with me... So then I showed just the beginning of the thread to others and got reactions like "hope that guy is black, because throwing ish like that around is pretty innappropriate, and would piss me off if i were black" EVERYONE knows by saying 'migga what" migga this migga that you truly mean ni**a what ni**a this and ni**a that... So this is a CLEARLY stated situation that the word is not proper for a forum like this. And if you would like to argue that it is, then there should be no penalization for racist comments down the road. This has nothing to do with me 'getting over myself' it has to do with a topic that really bothers me, and as a member, I believe I have the right to speak up upon the situation.
EDIT: Also for those of you still sticking to 'it's just a nickname' when was the last time you said "56k.... (insert nickname) what?" gooooooood joke

STAY ON TOPIC.

oh my.... you realize his name is miguel, right? we call him migga for short. its not a black/white thing. its just a nick name. and "nigga what" is a socially acceptable term that comes from rap music. get over it. there is no racist issue here.

to stay on topic
nice photos, wouldve been nice if you had more of the stang

as for all these nickname shenanigans
i dont see anything wrong with him have the nickname migga, however in the 3rd person context he used, id say hes in the wrong
>
you mean to tell me you use it in public around people you dont know? and also by that logic nig*** itself should be socially acceptable.

itd be nice if we could all go back using nig*** in its archaic definition or not at all along with its variants.

looks like this topic is going to get closed or cleaned up soon...miggas always causing problems somewhere

nice pics guy, some of those came out real nice

People peace....

Im planning a trip out there in about a week . any recomendations. btw nice pics

Recommendations: Go on one of the tours of the lake. Even if u dont care about the "history" and other bs they talk about, the scenery is worth the ~$15, its also relaxing and burns 2 hours.

Sunscreen is your friend.

Pairasailing is ~$50 a person. and lasts ~10 minutes.

>

yep... since im not a racist, im secure in my use of slang.

ok im ending this discussion on the nickname of "Migga" once and for all.

My names Miguel. Im of Spanish and Italian decent.

The nickname migga has nothing to do with the "N"word. I have 4 of 5 different nicknames floating around 6gc with the East Coast crew. Some include, Mig, Migga, Miggy, and Miguelito con queso. there all just taken from the first part of my First name.

>

The term Migga has NO racial connection. end of story. Its used at meets, on the phone, in close company, and even in largly populated areas, such as Dave & Busters, and Malls.

IF you personally have a problem with the nickname, thats your problem. (ur entitled to your own opinion.)

>>>>STOP CLOGGING UP MY THREAD WITH YOUR POINTLESS, "THAT ****S RACIST" BULL ****!>>>>

edit: edits are for color^
