Car talk

Today Joe and I were doing our Rockville shopping
run - bike shop, container store, frame store,
grocery shopping. We get in and out of the car a
lot on these trips. In one parking lot I chatted
for over ten minutes with a nice Chinese woman
about my car. I gave her the usual information -
price, MPG, and showed her the trunk. She is a
journalist for a newspaper published for the DC
Chinese community. Before we said goodbye she
gave us some tips on getting discounts at local
Chinese restaurants. She says she really wants a
Mini but her husband is very skeptical.
Shah Rukh Khan appeared on the front page of the Washington Post Arts section in a bathtub. Apparently there is an unauthorized biography out about SRK. I am there.
My uncle Austin sent me an drawing for my birthday. I am honored.
When I was on vacation on Edisto my parents' car was hit by a flying tire that flew off a truck that passed them. My parents missed their party and they will be without their "good car" for a while but other than that everything turned out OK.
Here are two pictures. The fireman that was directing traffic reminded me of Vito of the Sopranos.
And we've been doing 4-way video chatting on Sunday nights. It's not perfect - there are echos and audio sync issues - but as you can see it is still fun.
