UTC quote I hate my car. My Vespa has brought about a loathing that I never thought I would experience. I hate my car, I hate sitting in my car in traffic, The weather is shit - storm force winds and driving rain. I should be thankful for the safe, dry tansportation to work. But I hate my car.

I think it's like Jack Sparrow said, "The Black Pearl is not just a boat, it's freedom". Driving anything is freedom, and two wheels somehow gives me the feeling of even more freedom.

I love raccoons that eat the hyacinths that smother my river (st. johns in FL) and kill the fish and foul the props of our boats. But i don't know why i swallowd the fly, perhaps i'll die.
