Minor cog in a giant wheel 70% of the time, 25% I do my real job Uncle Sam asked me to do, and 5% I am God's gift to motoring and style, top down and menacing public freeways.
Just turned 30, bought the Rainforest Green/Savannah Tan 986 with 5-speed two years ago and sadly only able to put 5000 miles on it. (See 5% comment)
Not an engineer!
PS However, my dad was an engineer and had a '75 Speed Yellow 914.
PSS Grandad was an engineer as well, famous for helping design the brakes on the Concorde, remarked that if he'd had one of those he'd actually ENJOY working on a car!
