New Car!


So Desmond got a new car. Of course, it's new to him, not brand new; he wants that to be very clear. He doesn't want people to think he lost a connection to the common man. But the new car is still very fancy. You'll notice that it is a wagon. Desmond thinks that driving a station wagon makes him look inconspicuous as he runs his day-to-day errands. There is no need to draw attention to one's self. Also, the car has all wheel drive. This is not only for driving in snow, but for the odd occasion when a high-speed pursuit (of him, or by him) takes a turn off road. It's best to be prepared.

The second photo is of Desmond behind the wheel. It took him quite a while to adjust the mirrors, and for the picture he is trying to mask his frustration with the process. Later that day when I asked him why he was so particular about the mirrors he launched into a diatribe about how awareness is one of the most important things...I hate it when he speaks metaphorically.

I'm glad to see you jumped on the Subaru bandwagon. I'm wondering if Desmond is a Subaru fan because of the "horizonal opposition" (I know that it's a reason 03Grady is a fan).

You have great taste Desmond, what a good choice in transportation!! You look so comfortable behind the wheel, it's like you were born to race cars...watch out Mom and Dad!!

Naysayers (i.e. Melcher) take note: the Subaru Legacy wagon is a plenty big car, big enough even to carry the revolution.

I think it's perfect for fishing equipment just as long as you don't get all crazy and fall on the rocks at the dam like last time Dessy Fresh!!!!!!
