Sorry to hear that. I had seen the story earlier. Any word on what happened? Someone posted wondering why the man didn't take him to Community, since it was just a few blocks away. My guess is that he was unfamiliar with the area, since he had to stop at the CVS and ask for directions.

Too bad. I hope the Police find out why and who did it.

Anyone see me driving home from Indy?

I figured out how to get my car back. My Subaru broke. So I drove it to Tom Wood Subaru about a block west. Dropped one car, picked up the other. Nice. Now I just have to figure out how to get my Subaru back once it's fixed.

My passion got the tranny and battery 2.0 upgrades, as well as shifter change and lube. Nice. I do notice that the shifting is a bit less jumpy.

Sure was quiet around that place.....

You can just drive your smart to the Subie dealer, but the smart in the trunk and drive home

You're so silly 'chief'......if he did that, there wouldn't be enough room for his spare tire. He would have to leave it there and then what if he had a flat? Guess he could take the smart out, drive back and pick up the spare, go back to the Subaru...install the spare and just throw the flat away to make room for the smart again.

Oh, now that I think of it.......nevermind. Too much work lifting the smart in and out and back into the trunk.....by yourself.

I think I saw a white and black heading west on fry rd. crossing 31 at 5:20pm. I am sure it wasnt Panda, he was still in his cage at work after I left. I tried to follow it but lost it before I could follow it. I dont see very many of our kind.

You're right, not me. I was still in my cage, I mean at work. Hadn't seen another White/Black in the area. Maybe 'shadow' saw his own 'shadow'?
