Nothing seems right in cars.

But, who's gonna drive you home?

Baby, you can drive my car. (Beep beep, beep beep, yeah.)

My Pappy said, "Son, you're gonna drive me to drinkin' if you don't stop drivin' that hot rod Lincoln".

Hang on... You don't?

Not for lack of trying.

Because it will cost £24m?

I'm guessing Paul wishes she would do it in front of an oncoming bus.

I'm guessing she could do it omnibuses and still screw Paul.

My first idea of what it was that we should do in the road is somewhat unsocial, but then I was 11 years old.

All the loose gravel and such.

Well, MY road is a frontage road for Route 101/Pacific Coast Highway, so I know that many local commuters and vacation travelers will catch at least a brief glimpse. There is no danger of getting hit by a bus because all the large vehicles stay on the highway. As for the loose Gravel and such, the former senator/presidential candidate is not anywhere near my road and not really all that loose. Of course, as far as stuff on the road is concerned, that's one of the top reasons why the Hitchhikers Guide recommends you always carry a towel. Now, if I do it in the road, I may have difficulty blogging it, unless I move my wifi router out to the parking area of the Wendellair.

But still, I can't wait to get on the road again. Going places that I've never been, seeing things that I may never see again. Like a band of gypsies going down the highway. We're the best of friends, insisting that the world keep turning our way, and our way... is on the road again. 'Nuff said.

Because the Earth is round. And the sky is blue.

Because that's what the railroad tracks are for.

Because the cops will come and shine their flashlights on your face.
