| Bands I wished I'd started |
Cars I've owned (or did they own me?) |

When I was in high school I always wanted to start a band. Unfortunately
I had no muscial talent. But if I did start a band, I would've
called it one of these....
- Darlings of Absurdity
- Ciceronian Jokesters
- Pissed-Off Mystics
- Bad Mojo
- Rufus Zimbo's Naughty Dream
- Vuja De

-
1973 Ford Gran Torino
-
Given to me by my grandfather in 1985. Gotta love the bag of Sakrete in the
trunk and cinderblocks over the rear wheel wells in winter just to keep
that puppy on the road. It was really good for doing donuts (though
sometimes unexpectedly) in winter.
-
1979 Pontiac Firebird
- More Sakrete! This car sat in the Boucher's front lawn for months.
I think they wanted $3300 for it originally. It just had the engine and
transmission rebuilt. I paid $1800 for the privilege of driving it away.
I really enjoyed the the scenes where the heater core and master cylinder
blew. Two thumbs-up.
- 1991 Nissan Sentra
-
My first new car. I paid $8400 to cruise around in real luxury.
-
1998 Honda Accord
-
Still trucking along in this one...hoping it lasts quite awhile longer...
