New car? Still own The Crypt? (Chevelle). Because if you don't, perhaps you already are dead and no one has been kind enough to tell you. Too bad speed can't cure cancer. Maybe make you forget for a short time.

Still have the Chevelle! But needed a daily driver, so leased MURDER.

I read. I think. I opine. I don't watch TV. Or movies. I listen to music. And read while listening. And knitting. I don't have the driving need to stab myself or anyone else with the knitting needles, so maybe I'm an aberration? Oh, yes, and per the commenter below... I speed when I drive. especially the 1968 GTO. Speed can, indeed, make you forget a lot of misery for a short time.

BUT you're on the Interwebs....and presumably you have a phone too? It's like dirty water...it manages to seep in it seems....

Ah, but only if you allow it to taint you that thoroughly. I've used the interwebs since the late 80s (yeah, THAT old); I know the temptations and risks posed. I could be fooling myself, but I'd *like* to think that I consume my media according to my own whims, and not those of our overlords. ;)

Eh, good point... long enough timeline, yeah, we'll all be toast.
