Mediumly Aggressive



That is how Laura, the slightly flirty (and cute!)
sales girl described my test drive.
I was going freaking 90 miles an hour,
I was chirping tires around corners,
I was spinning it off the line,
and she described it as mediumly aggressive.
I can not imagine what she would call "actually aggressive".


When I went on a date a few months back,
the woman I was with described the Mini as a "clown car".
She could not see how a real man could want one.
She even said I would have to get a clown nose.
(clown nose, yeah, like you are going to get a second date)
Now that I have driven one, she was so wrong.
It is an amazingly fun car to drive.


Back in June, I sold the boat.
I had to because of the divorce.
I used to describe that boat as "Stoopid FasT".
It was a sports car on the water.
The Cooper S is a sports car for the road.
I don't know how long it is going to take me,
but I am going to own one of these bad boys.
It will be my "divorce car" and mid-life car all in one.
If you ever get the chance to drive one, try it.
I always thought the "fun" crap was just marketing.
Nope, they packaged it and sell it as the Cooper S.


In Nintendo Online my handle is 2Fast4U
It is a shame that is too many letters for a license plate
because in this little gear box, it would be true in real life.

Stoopid FasT, WOW.



(PS: Yes, I do know she was flirty
because she wanted to sell me the car,
but do you think I cared why?)
