For no reasons other than 'cause I wanted to I bought Michelle a new scooter and surprised her with it today, leap day 2008.  It's a lovely green Buddy Italia 125 brand spanking new.  I hung around the house waiting for Michelle to go to work, then quickly hooked up the trailer and ran into Ducati Seattle where I had been in touch with Jared who had the scoot prepped and ready to pick up. Within an hour I was back home and rolled it into the living room for the big surprise.

What a hoot! I can't wait to ride this thing!

this is SO true!

It must still be winter 'cause I'm blogging about nothing, kind a like every Seinfeld episode ever. I'm almost embarrassed to admit I watched the pilot of the new Knight Rider show last night, all 2 hours of it.  Anything had to be better than the stupid Big Brother series that goes on for who knows what reason or audience that gets off watching a bunch of egotistical, self center brats backstabbing each other at every opportunity. Doesn't that describe every reality show out there?  How pathetic TV is today...  Anyway I was somewhat pleasantly surprised by the new Knight Rider, the car is very cool, the so called nano-technology makes for really cool special effects and the plot is as predicable as clouds and rain in the northwest.  I'll probably tivo it and see if I can take a few more episodes without Ford Focus commercials. (now with Microsoft Sync!).  So let's review, Knight Rider now, The Bionic Woman was last fall (what ever happened to that show?) what's next, Batman? Oh wait there is another Batman coming out, never mind ...
