Neat Story

I swim on a local masters team, and I just started so I don't know many people yet. Anyways heres the neat story I overheard as I was getting ready to jump in the pool.

A couple guys are discussing cars, and they were chatting about how much they liked the XTerra, and how they really thought it was cool because it was so rugged and so true to the SUV roots. Then, one of the guys says, "Yeah, but there is a new awesome car I can't wait to take a look at." Well, of course he says "Its the 2003 Mazda RX-8." I just smiled, and thought, well jeez, if these guys are into the car, maybe there really are a lot of people out there just dying to get their hands on one? Maybe they were car nuts, I don't know, but still fun.

He talked about how cool it looked, and how the suicide doors are awesome. Lotsa fun to listen.

Anyway, that's my story. Probably not much to discuss with that, but I noticed there wasn't one new post on Tuesday So I thought I'd put something in.

Bedtime.....

Well its good to hear that people are interested in the Rx-8 and not just us rotary fans. I've been hearing a few people talking about it, which is cool since hardly no one talks about Rx-7's over here.

I was going to buy a new rx8, but I think I'll wait till Pres. Bush finds those WMDs in Iraq.
I'm afraid if gas goes over $2 gallon, I won't be able to afford premium for it.
