Spike's Bitches 26: Damn right I'm impure!  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

It seems it's a convenience/discount based car rental agency. Somehow the cars are located near your home (within walking distance), gas and insurance are included. Lots of self-service online also appears to be part of it.

Yep. You rent in half hour increments, and once you've got an account, you can reserve online. My neighborhood has a ton of them -- there are two right across the street from me, and about 10 within maybe 4 blocks. And one of the ones right across the street from me is a Mini Cooper, which I love driving -- I'm 4'10", and that's the first car I've every driven where I can position the seat so that I can reach the pedals and see over the dashboard and be far enough back from the airbag. t /Zipcar pimp

Mostly lurking...

We have like 6 zipcars within two blocks of our place. It's really cool. I have a car, but Emily doesn't, and she uses Zipcar when she needs one.

Your tag here.

So, do they park these Zipcars in public parking lots or are they at actual "Zipcar stores"?

In DC, it's in regular parking lots and garages. The Zipcar people buy parking spaces at lots all over the city.

Silence means security silence means approval

I would love to move to Oregon, because man-oh-man, do I love PDX.

PDX is what Seattle was like 10-15 years ago. Even have a heroin problem.

And I miss the Seattle I moved to in 1995, and PDX has Powell's.

It's Flexcar in Chicago, and they keep a couple of cars in the parking lot of a restaurant near me.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I've been to Cass' place. Not only does she not share a wall with anyone, there's at least a few feet of yard between her and each of her neighbors. That's some impressive sex.

At the point the neighbours can hear, I think we've reached "I hope you've brought enough for everyone" territory.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Does Super Porny Pants have to fly all the way Down Under, or can she just beam with pride from here?
