Car

I’ve decided to buy a car.

I’m 40, and never had one before, so that’ll be 23 years of saving the planet, way before it became trendy to do so.

As a result, I’ll probably get something really bad for the environment, but I’ll still have a lower life-time carbon footprint than all the Prius-driving, tree-hugging hippies out there.

Now the tricky part is finding a car that has both an iPod interface for music and an iPhone-compatible phone preparation.

This may prove to be tricky. Maybe I’ll just go for the former (and use my old Nano) and get the bluetooth handsfree for iPhone.

Or maybe I’ll just not use the phone at all. Apparently it’s a Bad Thing™.

    A car you say? How very upwardly mobile of you. That said, I’m beginning to think that I should learn how to drive and get one too :/

    Oh, and the iPhone is a Good Thing®

    Really? I thought you always felt you were a danger to yourself and others?

    Now here’s an interesting thing. I clicked on my link from Google Reader to make a whitty comment about ‘Going Commando?’ the Name and mail field are not populated with my name and email address, but with Jacks. Goron - sort your site security out :D

    It must think anything from the proxy is the same person. Funny that I didn’t see Dom’s details.

    Odd indeed. Both comments did come from the same IP address, so maybe that’s it.

    WordPress - never trust it!

    BTW, where did the commando reference come from? I usually wear lucky knickers !

    Commando ref came from that survey you filled out a while back. I remembered you answering “None” for pants - but I see that was for the American pants.

    Ah yes, I see the confusion.

    No, I always like to wear lucky pants (British). Today, I’m wearing pants with a pirate skull+crossbones motif.

    Not sure what kind of luck that brings though :-)
