It is
the hour before midnight, on the harsh, gray flat asphalt road along the
banks of one of the Great Lakes . A truck races by like a
shadow, the moon glowing behind a small house. The car swiftly goes on
by, the dim light from the fogy night: --moon penetrating through the
fog onto the tuck and house, where a man is standing by the road; --
music is heard coming from the car, Rock & Roll, as this stranger
standing by the road, a man in a red plaid shirt, he stands erect, as if
he was Paul Bunion; standing in-between the road and the house as a
truck races by.
To dry your car, you can
use a chamois cloth or a towel but make sure that it is clean when you
use it. Or else, you would only be marring the cleaning job that you
just finished.
Finally, during the long New Year weekend, they'd done it. The
man told her to get out and she'd finally found the strength to take him
up on it. She woke Teddie up, told him to take his bike and go to the
new place, grabbed a few things, including Charlie, and walked out,
letting the security door slam behind her. She'd never told the man that
she already had a place to go, had had it lined up for weeks now, in
anticipation of this moment. Teddie would get there before she did, but
she and Charlie and what was left of her life wouldn't be far
behind.

Technology has solved the time problem. From your home you can
find a dealer, a car, fill out the paper work and haggle over the price.
All you have to do is punch a few keys on your computer. Skip sees the thickness of the woods next to
him, as the head lights reflect the fog-lit moon shadows. In front of
him there are hundreds of frogs crossing the road, driftwood had reached
all the with way from the lake up to the road, --it is strange they both
think , and so
they now are thinking more with their body expressions, their face,
eyebrows, the way they look at each other; --they turn their head sharp
as if they sense Lake Superior is right next to them because of the
sounds of the waves are becoming louder again, but they know it is a few
hundred yards to the side of them, yet all this driftwood laying about,
they seem to be fixed on for the moment, as if they were on a levy.
There were three major car
manufacturers. Ford, General Motors and Chrysler. Each manufacture had a
following. Arguments could erupt over which car was the best. A man's
Dodge pickup was a source of pride. Sunday morning the family would
dress in their best clothes and get into a Buick for the trip to church.
The Cadillac represented power and money while the Ford and Chevrolet
represented the working people. People that lived in the country had a
buy truck or suv. It was a working
truck and on Saturday's the kids jumped in the back for a trip to
town. RSR Motorsports first raced a Honda Civic Si at Daytona
last year, and now all three of the team's Street Tuner class entries
are Civics. The 2012 season was a chance to learn the car, though
success came quickly in the form of a win at New Jersey Motorsports Park
and third at Barber Motorsports Park. The end of the story is
we were able to get the lawyer for Ford Motor Credit to accept a much
lesser amount because he was trying to get a default judgment on his
fees. That was illegal here in Florida, so with his hands in the cookie
jar, he just wanted to get it over rather than have his name placed in
front of the Florida Bar Assn. Jay Leno married his wife Mavis Nicholson in 1980. He says he's
"very happily" married; the couple have no children. Nicholson is a
scriptwriter. She also pens children's books. She's also a supporter of
the Feminist Majority Foundation. The couple live in Los Angeles.
