I'm only happy when it rains.
Brenda, I'm trying with the Smart Cars, but apparently nobody else thinks they are as wacky/funny as I do.
In news that makes me grumpy, my student, carefully hired and trained to be my main backup through my maternity leave, which includes my office and 30,000 books moving, tells me today that he's going to leave (for another job) the Friday before the move, leaving us without student help for the 2 weeks we probably need it most all summer, while I'm gone AND everything is moving. Argh.
Oh brenda, if you want you can borrow my copy of
Kingdom Coming....
Smart Cars are coming!
YAY!!! I love them. I think they are wacky/funny, and also a brilliant idea. And they make them in leopard print now!
I want a Smart Car. But then, I do very little driving in the city, and I'd probably want something bigger for road trips....
My problem with Smart Cars is that because of various costs associated with importing they are still fairly pricey for what they are.
I've only seen pictures of Smart Cars. Very cute, and seem like a good idea if you have a lot of in town driving to do. I'd be afraid to take one on the interstate, I think, and that would really limit it's usefulness for me.
Sometimes I'd think it'd be fun to have an old (mid-'60s or older) VW Beetle to use to run around town....
I think that a lot, tommyrot. Especially when I see a VW convertible with a for sale sign.
