The Power To Fly…

Image via Wikipedia

Hey, Eric, 
Here you go.  I’m totally not a car person…. 

• What was your first car? Ford Escort - bought from my brother - embalmed in cigarette smoke, a few holes, and various other bits that didn’t work, it last me 6 months
• Any significant memories w/that car? The transmission died just after a light on Monroe Ave and I had to crawl to reach a place I could pull over and park - Dad picked it up and hobbled it out to Farmington, where they declared it DOA
• What’s parked in your driveway now? ‘07 Nissan Altima
• Does your car reflect your personality? If so, how? Yeah, I think so - sporty, but not too… bit reserved, perhaps, but can be fun….totally disorganized interior
• Favorite vehicle(s)? ZipCars (in concept)
• Favorite vehicle…if money were no object? OK, I’m revealing my fantasy geekness - but I really don’t have a favorite CAR - I would say either a Roc or a tall ship (like the Earl of Pembroke) - the power to fly also ranks.
• Vanity Plates? If so - what’s on them? N/A
• Must have car gadget? iPod, phone charger
• Favorite driving tunes? Total range, from Me First & the Gimmie Gimmies (“I believe I can fly”), Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, Flogging Molly (“If I ever leave this world alive”) to Weird Al (“Bob”), Moxy Fruvous (“Authors”) to Sarah Slean (“Day One”), Francoise Hardy, Cat Power
• Favorite Hollywood movie car? Not for the car, but the song keeps popping into my head as I do this - the Gnome-mobile
