Yup Yup a lotta people laughed at me and yes even gave me shit about it (a fair bit acutally, in fact the first thing I'm gonna do tomorrow is punch Lenny in the back of the Head!!!). Anyway Betsy's humble beginings began all the way back in 1988 where she was bought in exchange for two slaves and a peanutbutter sandwich and those two slaves went on to save spring-break. And my grandpa had just invented the turlet which he started in nineteendickety-six, now he had to use the word dickety because the Kaiser had stolen our word for twenty, but anyway....

Betsy was the daily drive for my uncle and he passed it onto my dad in 1992 or there abouts which he passed onto his wife at about 1994 who then passed it onto Super Saiyan Smurf in 1996 who gave it a few battle scars and such. Finally Betsy was passed onto me, Joey Jo Jo Jnr Jeremiah Smurf, and so began the amazing transformation in 2000.

Over the course of a few months I developed an unhealthy relationship with Betsy, numerous times she had nearly killed me such as the tree and brickwall incident, but we won't talk about such unpleasetness. I remember our mid-night lawn job odysee's where wet grass and handbrakes were the order of the day, and crusing around looking for patches of turf and such. It was funny one day straight from the end of high school I went straight to a patch of grass in full daylight, off a main road, in my school uniform and about a dozen other clues giving my identity away and proceded to cut sic on the lawn to the devestation of the surrounding neighbours. Ahhh good times had for all involved.

Anyway I soon tired of Betsy, so to keep things intresting thought it would be amusing to install two 12" Cerwin Vega, Vega series Compition subwoofers in into a 4cubic ft box into the boot and amped 3-way Cerwin Vega 6x9 rear's and 6" Pioneer 3-ways at the front, hence the name Booming Betsy. Anyway my 4-channel Rockford Fosgate Amp didn't last long before I fried it (blew up two mosfet switches) so I went out and got an Earthquake PA-2150 that could safely pump out 700-rms-watts. Needless to say I now suffer from permnant hearing damage, with Betsy producing an estimatated 140-ish db SPL.

Anyway the day came when I had to get rid of Booming Betsy, my parents thought it was too un-safe, like they'd know and I had a hard time finding a suitable replacement. The good people at South City Mazda gave me $500 for her and welcomed Betsy into their family and now i have Gdo.
