My Boss is sorta famous...
The FB for Android app team had a project named Mustang and so they were looking for some to take a photo with. I said they could use my car for the shoot. I thought it was just going to be some internal photo but turns out, they used it for the press announcement of our latest FB for Android release. These releases get a few eyeballs.

Attempting to get on the hood would have automatically removed my car from that shot...brave soul.

I work here, all the other Mustangs here are surprisingly pedestrian.

Admittedly, I only saw that they were on the hood after the pics were taken. But no harm, no foul.

Omg, that makes it even more painful, but cool indeed.

It's nice to see you here LQQK!

Thanks for the smoked 3/4 light idea. I still have my car set up that way.

Good thing you don't live in Texas, you wouldn't be able to leave the yard.
