Dennis - Yeah, I heard about your misadventure yesterday from Kim. Those airbags are pretty exciting, aren't they? You can mope, or you can take the approach I took: "Goody! I can buy that convertible that I'm now middle-aged enough to deserve!" and get yourself another little sportster. I hear that Ken Lay has a couple of Benz' that have been repo-ed and may be looking for a buyer. Glad you've lost nothing but a little skin and a ton of metal and plastic. The rest can be replaced. Been there, done that...

I know 2002 was supposed to be better than 2001, but we are off to an imperfect start up here in the hills. I totaled my Red Racer yesterday [subject to insurance adjuster's certification, of course]. Man, we were supposed to grow old[er] together and all that stuff and it was just getting broken in good @ 124,000 miles and it just gobbled up and zipped up, down and around all these hills like it owned them [which it did]. No "zipping" was going on yesterday, I will testify. And now Janell thinks we should get a "tankier" replacement to protect against these old geezers who have now proven they can get in my way. No serious damage to either driver [I know the other guy]. Just my first experience with air bag explosion and associated abrasions and broken heart from losing my old red buddy. I made the stupid mistake of telling mom I was only in a coma for "a couple of hours", and now I will have to work to get that image out of her head, but, hey, I am not myself, I had a big wreck. I shall, of course, exploit that sentiment to the max. When I went out in the garage today to run Janell to work and my car wasn't there, it was not a good moment, but I am being very, very brave. I went out last night and bought a new computer rig to cheer me up and next tuesday I will get cable modem internet connection, so we will be cookin' up here in the woods. I have always had state of the art PCs, but have never had to buy one before. My bosses used to do that, but they seemed to have stopped now for reasons I must investigate. I also upgraded my hotmailbox to 10mb, so you can send me tons of funny graphics without it choking now. I wanted to get DSL, but SWBell doesn't offer it here yet, and the cable boys beat them to the punch by finally completing their fibre optic intalls, so I had to go that way to get speedier. Oh well, we're ahead of Afhanistan up here in technology, but probably won't be after we finish spending billions of our $$$ over there.
