You're nice, and you're funny and you don't smoke, and okay, werewolf, but that's not all the time. I mean, three days out of the month, I'm not much fun to be around, either.

We could do a whole Springsteen themed thing.

Drive: Original Recipe - Born to Run
Drive: Hawaii - Streets of Fire (Watch the contestants circumnavigate lava flows!)
Drive: Sponsored by Chevrolet - Thunder Road
And, of course, the very special edition Post-Prison Break Drive - Working On The Highway.

Ooh, Buck 65 might be good. Maybe Highway 101.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Kristen understands this game. I'm taking my toys and going to AIM.

A One that isn't cold, is scarcely A One at all.

We should help Tim out by selecting the appropriate theme song. It should be something like how Bruckheimer uses The Who. You know, in case there's a franchise, like Drive: Europe. Or Drive: Catalina, where all the cars are those teeny golf carts.

Ah. Deja Vu.

Personally I like: "Drive" REM

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

How about that big '05 hit (that's 1905), In My Merry Oldsmobile, the first song ever about a car. Or maybe Robert Johnson's Terraplane Blues - the first song to use a car as a sexual metaphor (or so I've read).

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Free Love Freeway -- think of the crossover opportunities!


Kristen - Jun 15, 2006 2:39:13 pm PDT #381 of 10001

Technically, that's also a Springsteen song.

ETA: Pink Cadillac being also a Sprinsteen song. (Though not the same Pink Cadillac.) Possibly to be used for Drive: Julie Newmar Edition.

I was a bit confused about it at first too, Kristen, then discovered the differentness. I loved the video for Aretha's. But then, I kinda love Aretha.

Based on absolutely nothing, I think a bluesy-sounding theme would fit well. Something like Dr. Feelgood's version of "On The Road Again" would be a cool theme song.

Ooh, and then "B Movie Box Car Blues" for the train-centered spinoff! And "Deep Blue Sea" for the yachting version.
