Funny, I remember you for being accused of hating cars.

Ha!

Tremendous you'd remember that.

Yes, that accusation was tossed into the air like antiradar chaff by Mr. Hearfield during the great transportation mode/building density debate of 2006 (or was it '05? Fuzziness creeps in).

Ironically, later that day I received a points extracting ticket on the NJ Turnpike from a State Trooper for doing around 90 MPH in a 65 MPH zone (there are no 90 MPH zones - officially speaking - so I found the Trooper's insistence on this point perfectly logical but amusing).

A friend had just completed performance enhancing mods on her new Subaru WRX TR and wanted me to take the wee beast from Nippon out for a spin.

As I shifted, rocketing past exit Exit 4A, I thought of Lord Heartfield and smiled. Then the Trooper's cruiser emerged from between trees obscuring the Turnpike's service road and I smiled a little less broadly.

Good times.
