Elijah and I on the beach...

Something very peaceful for me on this beach and being able to enjoy it with Elijah was cool. And the sweatshirt makes it looking like I am going to be a starting Linebacker in the NFL.

Ha...

Steve Goes "Liberal"

What???!?!?!?!

Yeah... I traded a nice vehicle that went super fast and got 18 mpg for the new Jetta TDI that gets 45 mpg.

To all my little liberal friends and their demands for Priuses and Obamanomics:

What now bitches?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

And I didn't have to sacrifice what I like in a car:

Low End Torque (236lb per foot)

Sport Braking and Sport Wheels

Leather interior

German coolness and looks


I have already been stopped by two people and I just drove the thing home.

I'll post pics when I feel like it.

Score

I found $6 in my shorts today. $6. Awesome.

Back in Sactown today, Bay Area tomorrow.

So why does today feel like Tuesday and not Wednesday?

So flying this week, two things happened. First on the way up to Portland, I flew Southwest and I was in the A group. And I had a low number so I sat first. I got in the second row so it was totally cool and I knew I would get my coffee first.

Well as everyone was boarding the captain got on and said that it was about half full so aisle and windows for almost everyone so that was totally cool which means we weren't three to a row like the old days riding the bus to Calaveras High School. (God that sucked)

So this lady gets on and says, "Can I sit next to you?"

She was an older, granola looking lady who obviously was heading for a hike along the Columbia. I let her in since the window was open and she seemed harmless. So I go back to sit down and...

WTF?

She was sitting in the middle... So... of course, being the prick that I am I was like move over bitch!

Not really, but I did inform her in a totally terse way that the window was open and she should enjoy the view of the Cascades on the way to Oregon.

And she says NO!

Okay, the WTF came entered my mind and I turned around looking for another aisle.... Then she realized no one else was boarding and then she moved over.

So today... I sat on a plane and watched a lady have air sickness. It was sweet.

Oregon...

...it's pretty... green. I felt like hugging a tree. Amazed by the overgrowth and fresh air. It makes California suck.

Q: What is the difference between Ed McMahon and Michael Jackson?

A: Ed said, "Heeeeeere's Johnny!" and Michael said, "Where's Johnny?"

Oooooh! The U.N. Condemned it so it's Bad!!!

HA HA, you very funny Steve! You make good funnies about Michael Jackson

Watching the UN act is a demoralizing lesson in futility. How about, unleashing a wrath that hath no predecessor and serious do something instead of having your thumbs up your ass while the world burns.

Just freaking do it. Let South Korea overrun the North. All those malnourished, little people who stand for "Dear Leader" will drop their weapons and run for the nearest Sanyo cellphone store and call home to mom like the little feeble bitches they are, launching bottle rockets into the sea, celebrating the fourth of July. Our holiday!

Fuck North Korea.

Q: Why did Michael Jackson die on the same day as Farrah Fawcett?
A: He didn’t want her to be the only white woman grabbing all the headlines.

Friday, Friday, Friday....

Well... tomorrow that is. I am out for a long weekend to do nothing but tinker with my Porsche or something. The rear sway bar is loose so I might drive up to a friend's shop and climb under to fix it tomorrow. That way I can take some corners tighter. It is a hard part of the car to reach even parking on the edge of the curb. I should take pictures. I need new shocks back there as well. We'll see.

I just won't let up:

What do a shopping bag and Michael Jackson have in common? One is plastic, white and you should let small kids play with it, the other you take home groceries in.
