Hog Wild

Well, it is finally here!

I don't mean to make light of biblical prophecies, but it seems like the plagues are coming. Wow, talk about cutting into my drive time with the Green Goblin. This is like a black cloud out of nowhere! How small the orb of Earth seems when perceived through the eye of a virus, huh? But, not to worry; just keep washing those hands, cover your mouth when coughing or sneezing, and keep administering the normal dosages of alcohol. Stay clean, as Motorhead would say.

A Great Conversation Starter

Never before, in my short life-span, have I ever had a car which can spark conversation from the clear blue sky. Recently, when tooling around in my Bullitt, I have received some very interesting comments. This past Saturday, in Pasadena, a bus driver, idling next to me, yelled out, "is that a Bullitt?" I have never had a bus driver speak to me, while not as a passenger in the bus at the time. This guy was awe-struck by my Green Goblin and commented that it was beautiful. Sometime later in the day a gentleman approached the car, while I was parking, and asked if it was a Bullitt. He also commented on how nice he thought it was, but in addition, also asked if I would rev the engine. Do you think I would pass up a moment to display the classic musical sounds of this beauty? Needless to say, he was impressed and that stretch of block I was on, was much cooler. Looks and stares abound, as most people have never seen the green shade of my Mustang. Even if they have never heard of the Mustang Bullitt, Mustang Fastback, the movie, Bullitt, they still seem to be struck by its, "one of a kind," look. I will, no doubt, own many more cars in the future, but never will I own one such as unique.
