Linda Vaughn

[Winklovic]

Here I am with Linda at the 1977 World of Wheels Car Show in Winnipeg. I was 14 years old. Initially, we posed standing together, but my friend had trouble with his camera. Linda went back to the table and signed a few more autographs. Once my buddy was ready, Linda told me to sit down, then she sat on my lap. You see the result in the photo. I think I became a man that day. ;-) Linda could not have been more friendly or more beautiful.

I still have my pic with her from the 75 Gator Nationals. Very warm and easy to talk to person, treated like an old friend. Sorry to say in this day with the pc climate, this lady would not be allowed, too sexists they would say. Ah, love those good ol days. I feel lucky to have lived in those times.

You didn't write you thought she was unattractive, you said she was nasty. Even with today's weird usage and meanings I can't read that as anything other than an insult.

I think I see the problem here. Internet message boards depend mostly on words. If you have problems choosing the correct ones, people are going to challenge you. All they have to go on is what you actually wrote and not what you thought you wrote.

In this case I'd say it's better you don't post much, if this is the best you can do. As for being a know-it-all, I guess that means that I actually know Linda. You obviously don't, or you wouldn't have described her as nasty.

Well said Dan, Thank you

Kevin: Linda's actually a great person to talk to. FYI, the Sports Illustrated 2012 swimsuit cover model, Kate Upton, is the niece of Representative Fred Upton (Whirpool Corp.). I wonder how well she would do on "spin cycle"?

A lot of you guys miss a very important point.Beauty comes from within.

Hmm, it looks like she's telling someone off here...

You are all saying how beautiful she still is today, and I posted a picture from LAST WEEKEND. Now I'm being questioned as a real drag racer, and am being called out to come down south, was called stupid and disrespectful.

Sometimes things are better left unsaid.It's a great way to go through life.
