Remember my electric bike car fantasy

Remember when i wrote about this electric transport device I wanted back in (e:paul,32328) - well it is getting closer to reality I think. Today on engadget

they reviewed a prototype of what they refer to as a ghastly device but is actually exactly what I want

I can't wait for the day when I can get something like this. I hate the guilty feeling I get when I travel around in my car around the city. Frankly though, I would like a third wheel and room for two.

I hate driving

I never drive. Seriously, once a month I drive, if that. Tonight I was feeling especially angry about my lack of sand paper for my sander. I had a project I wanted to work on that required it. I stormed off to the store to buy sandpaper and forgot to write down the type if sander.

I was so angry by the time I got their that I just bought a whole new sander and every flavor of sandpaper to match. I am finally going to finish that fireplace in my office. One thing led to another as it always does at home depot and now I have all the supplies, except for one I surely forgot that will inevitably lead to another trip to home depot.

So I was feeling good about driving and drove to Wegman's too as I wanted more lamb chops and locked the keys in the car, which is what I am solving now, argh. I hate cars.

Going off the highway

I almost died on the way to the doctors when my car spun around a couple times on the 90 and then flew down and embankment. Miraculously, everything was froozen solid so the car and myself were not damaged. Normally, the creek I rolled onto would have been mush but it was solid as pavement and I was able to drive off.

Seriously, it was a freakin miracle. Its so scary when you are spinning around out of control on the highway and mac trucks are coming at you.

I was trying to drive to the doctors on transit. I made it but really this is why I want a doctor in the city.

On a side note, I discovered my notphone can browse all the files on my real phone as though it is anotherf drive. How cool is that. I don't even have to trasnfer stuff via bluebooth message.

What a nasty day for driving.

DLX 1906 road rager

Driving to deal with some insurance stuff on the house which finally closes October 16th, some guy was angry because he wanted to go faster than (e:terry). His solution was to zoom around us at 70mph on the 33 and then put on his breaks about two feet ahead of us and then continue to slow down. His license plate was DLX 1906. It's a miracle that it wasn't an accident.
