"The Naming of Cats is a difficult matter,
It isn't just one of your holiday games;
You may think at first I'm as mad as a hatter
When I tell you, a cat must have THREE DIFFERENT NAMES."
With apologizes to T.S. Eliot
Just so everyone is straight about how I got the car.
It was the classic case of being in the right place, at the right time. This car was previously owned by a gentleman who lives around the corner from me. He purchased it in 2003 and put only 2,000km on it. He actually had the garage he kept this car in carpeted. He was recently diagnosed with Cancer so felt it was time to pass the car on.
I saw it parked in his driveway with a For Sale sign. Each time I talked to him he lowered the price. Eventually I took the keys and ran REAL fast feeling that I had just stolen his car. I paid so little for it that I can afford gas to drive it.
As it is I only hope that I can continue to treat this car with the reverence that her previous owners obviously had for her.
