10/13/06 The coolest ride

1981 Mini

As i was driving to get some groceries tonight, i found myself thinking “this is the coolest ride ever!”. Sure, it’s only a 1981 Mini, the non Cooper kind, it often runs in 3 cylinders, it has no servo breaks -not even disc breaks-, the 2nd gear gets disconnected sometimes wich is potentially dangerous if you count on engine breaking, and it’s not really fast. But damn, the thing can turn!!  Weeeeeeeeeee!! It’s extremely fun to drive.








But i was wrong; that’s not the coolest ride. The coolest ride ever is…


The Plasma Car

Come on, tell me you don’t wish you were a kid so you could ride around in one of these without looking like an idiot. I sure do (wish i was a kid… well, look like an idiot too sometimes).

I’m off to reinstall Photoshop. For some reason it decided to stop saving gifs, the nerve. I hope this doesn’t take too long…

that is the coolest mini! it has such a classic look. the plasma car is neat, that’s like a segway for kids.

Dude, I hit my head on the roof of that Mini so many times… I know it’s a cool car… but maybe it’d have been cooler if I were a short girl.

I smell a photoshop contest with the plasma car…
make sure images are enabled on your blog lol

“were”?? You’re like a hair taller than me. That makes you a short girl.

Dude! I am TALL for a girl, especially a Mexican girl! ;-) But maybe it’s just that the mini is SOOPER mini!
