Reminds me a bit of a few of the poems I wrote from pets' points of view.<BR/><BR/>The poetry is no surprise--you know cars know all our secrets and how we treat them and what we yell at strangers who cut us off (oh my) is going to come spewing out of their mouths someday:>)<BR/><BR/>Congrats!laurasalashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13807781795919555208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20429083.post-59198793252112578202009-03-29T08:57:00.000-04:002009-03-29T08:57:00.000-04:00Red is a great color for you!

I know I'll have to drive carefully to maintain my ticketless status, but I'll have FUN every mile I drive!<BR/><BR/>Susan, if only we had reliable public transportation that would deliver me to the places I need to go (namely, TO WORK!!!), I'd be right there with you making fewer carbon emissions. While my car isn't a hybrid, it does have an EcoTech engine and dang good gas mileage.<BR/><BR/>Elaine, yup.

Like me, they thought it was fun to speak in the voice of an animal, element of nature, or inanimate object.<BR/><BR/>BTW, I remember renting an Opal when my husband and I traveled in Europe over 30 years ago.Elaine Magliarohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09829330276633865868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20429083.post-88732066681415641502009-03-27T09:56:00.000-04:002009-03-27T09:56:00.000-04:00Only you would befriend a poetry-writing car.
