It doesn't take much to make me happy...

I have always wanted a vehicle with a completely black interior. Well, I recently purchased a 2003 Blazer with only 8,000 miles on it, and the interior is black.

So, after a completely sleepless night, I throw on some clothes at 6:30 AM and go and get my 20 ounce coffee.

I'm driving around with the moon roof open, blasting "The Band - Live From Watkins Glen" on a primo sound system, drinking my coffee, smoking a ciggie, admiring my black interior, and thinking of an extremely pleasant recent memory.

Made me feel like a teenager again.

That's all...The End.

3. heh out here if the once every two or three years snowfall even sticks tot he ground

they shut whole counties down. And I don't get it because 90% of the population migrated here from colder climes, you would think they would remember how to drive in winter conditions. Guess the sun bakes their brains too.

4. You know...

I would love to drive a small economy car.

Unfortunately, I would get stuck all the time in the winter. It gets pretty nasty here.

So, this small SUV 4 x 4 suits me well.

5. What part of NY are you in?

I grew up in Potsdam and went to college in Fredonia...I feel your pain.

(Now living in Southern California -- I don't miss the snow at all!!)

7. I am...

in the Southern Tier. Not as much snow, usually, as western or northern, but still pretty bad!
