Here's yet another silly video I shot while being in Los Angeles for a week:

Although the Box behaved nicely the entire time -- even when doing 135 on I-5 (just kidding, I've never gone above the posted speed-limit in my life) -- I still sometimes wish I had a ratty car instead. You see, just as we were about to leave a public parking, I discover that a station-wagon parked next to me had bumped into the wheel-skirt of my car. My black paint was on his bumper, and his white paint on my car... along with a soft bump.
So what did I do? Nothing.
You see, I'm a yellow belly. Besides, his ****************ty car was plastered with bumper-stickers of NRA membership, 'US Army Reserve', 'I support the troops', 'Love it or Leave it', 'I'm Proud to be American', including some over-the-top hateful ones. Also, the inside of his car looked like a dumpster -- littered with fast-food wrappers & crap, including flyers for escort services. It wouldn't surprise me if he also slept in the car.
As I was debating what to do, the owner approached across the parking lot -- and man, he did not look like believing in diplomacy. It started to dawn on me that he had purposely bumped into my foreign made vehicle just to pick a fight. Hence, we scrambled and took off.
People like that remind me of something my mother use to say; "The human race -- the most inhuman there is."
Other than that -- everything perfect -- even stopped by James Dean's crash site on the way up -- 2am & at full moon.
