''I want to stay as close to the edge as I can without going over. Out on the edge you see all kinds of things you can't see from the center.''

My dear Michelle, there are some things that are not done, such as drinking Dom Perignon '53 above the temperature of 38 degrees Fahrenheit. That is just as bad as listening to the Beatles without earmuffs. (In Gold Finger circa Prague Spring of 1968)
Inquiry over car tax rort
The chief executive of the NSW Motor Traders' Association, James McCall, said there was a well-established racket in misusing wholesale motor dealer's licences.
A Maserati or Ferrari might sell for $300,000 or $400,000, he said, and the savings made by using the wholesale dealer strategy could come to $60,000 or more.
They drive these things around, and when you question them they say they have been 'trying to sell'. But it is a racket and it is going on all over NSW. We know of an instance where a car hire firm bought half a dozen Mercedes and called them stock.
