and then there are days.I wake up crackling with energy. The sun is shining. Its time to go. I turn the key in the porsche and the engine roars. Its makes me smile.... you know that sort of evil smirk of a smile? Back out and cruise politely (mostly) down El Camino. Head into the left turn lane for 237 and the light turns yellow just as I get to the end of the lane, so I stop. Of course stop - that puts me into prime take-off position. The light turns green... and I am off! Take the corner at speed never letting off the gas pedal and maintaining the correct line throughout the turn. Beings I am in front of the pack, take advantage and accelerate to cruising altitude rapidly.Stay to the left until the best possible opening and then zip over and head for the 101 off-ramp. * Now the fun begins. Keeping the car in 3rd gear as I come around the curve, I look for openings and there is one. The universe shines upon me! Cars are clumping up ahead. Truck coming up behind. Accelerate while moving across the lanes. Give the truck driver something to curse about? Who me? Never. Continue on down 101 keeping the car in 3rd gear with that absolutely gutteral roar which also keeps the RPMs in the appropriate power range for quick darts, dodges, and zooms. Some days life just gives you wonderful little presents. [evil laugh] ( Aug 29 2006, 12:44:12 PM PDT ) Permalink |
