I was driving home from class today and passed by a Red Lightning. I didn't think much of the situation until I saw the driver. The driver must have been no less than 80 years old with straight white hair! Hehe. I was impressed with that old timer. I wonder if it was his or he was just driving his sons (or grandsons) vehicle? I thought it was pretty cool.

I can tell you what it feels like to have an AARP card in my wallet and my ass planted in the seat of a GT500. This puppy is still gonna be with me til the day I'm done. That hour on the elliptical every day is to keep my clutch leg strong and my throttle action smooth.

That said, I *DO* have to wear reading glasses when I work under the hood!
Getting old sucks. Not getting old sucks worse.
