    ROADKILL EDITION

    I've been scooting around a good bit for work lately. On Monday in Michigan, I saw a large red dog splattered across an on-ramp, in addition to various deer, possums, raccoons and kittens.

    Yesterday in Pennsylvania, I saw a calf, as in baby cow hooves to the sky on the shoulder. Later in New Jersey I spotted a young black bear dead in the median strip.

    This morning in Connecticut, a deer very nearly joined this club by way of my rental car bumper.

    Coolest car I've seen lately was a white Toyota Cressida with a flawless exterior, at the body shop next door to the rental place.

    Was behind a MGB today with classic plates. It was a hatchback I didn't know about. Guessing it was an earlier one from the little bumperettes.

    Thought I had another MG, but it was a Triumph 2500.

    today: audi R8, i'm a sucker for finding the exotic, best loved from afar though - that V8 is unreliable and terrible to work on plus it's in the middle of the car.

    a couple weeks ago i saw a CNG Civic (mid-2000s era), didn't even know those were produced
