Here's a great CD by RudePundit:
I don't usualy write about work. It's no secret I'm a reporter for a local radio-station, but I don't want my employer or co-workers to worry I'm going to write smack about them.
Today will be a small exception, because the topic isn't about a person or company - it's about a vehicle.
I love driving around town in the station's SUV.
Since I'm a strong advocate for public transit, and bike or bus to work most of the time, one might think I would object to using a gas-guzzler to drive to news events.
Surprisingly, the exact opposite is true. When I get behind the drivers wheel, there is some deep-seated joy that awakens. I flash-back to childhood, and for a nano-second it's a like I'm in the bat-mobile.
The car is a Ford Explorer, not a rocket-powered, 60s-retro convertible; But they are both black, and both have lots of gratuitous logos - and that's enough for me.
VROOM!! VROOM!!! Make way citizen! Nobody panic! THE MEDIA IS HERE!!!
This irrational childhood regression could stem from the fact that, as a kid, my two favorite super-heroes were both reporters. (Spiderman and Superman.)
Also, I'm sure within a few weeks driving the Explorer will become as mundane as Cheerios.
In the meantime, I'm having fun. Especially since the station is known locally for it's conservative programing, and so it's not unusual for people with "Bush/Cheney 2004" bumper-stickers and iron fish magnets to honk their horns at me give me a "thumbs up" sign as I drive around town.
Never mind that I'm so Liberal I make Ghandi look like a Republican... they don't know that. So I grin and wave back!
Go GWB! w00t!!11
