Even when I passed in front of the WOMC display at Meijer's caught me by surprise. A woman, on the microphone and speaker system, shouted out, "Hey there goes a smart car... I wouldn’t want to be in THAT in an accident."

I still would have said something. If she is on a microphone, she should be a little more courteous. Even if she didn't like the car.

I mistakenly was in last year's 28th Street drive in GR with my Bug as my family was trying to get to Mongolian BBQ for dinner. Spectators were trying to get the Mustang ahead of me to spin its wheels but it was unable to. After waving me by as a "nothing" and trying to get the Vet behind me to spin, I dropped gear, popped the clutch, and my little chipped diesel let go with an endless spin-burn to the amazement of both the Mustang and Vet.

Rosie's Diner is 2 miles from my home. Wouldn't it be cool to do smart version of the famous photo?

I think that would be very cool. Perhaps a 'meet and greet' with a photographer and/or Photoshop person?

Rosie's has enough parking lot for probably a hundred ForTwos... That'd be a great place for a meet-'n-eat.
