It's simple dinner-table magic. Doesn't require guile, just a desire to entertain.

Hey I think Smart car's are cool " though I haven't sat in one to know how I'd fit "
I like to have a big vehicle like my old full size van and a small car like my old festive,.. My experience with my pintos, my Yugo, and other small cars the tend to get around in the snow better than the van...

The front wheel drive, and nimbleness, are worth a lot. last year when there were a lot of busses getting stuck on the hill in front of my house they had to back all the way down. I tried it in my car and also couldn't make it hut I did a powered 180 without leaving my lane and drove down.

(The cat comes wandering into the bar...walks around the bar and begins rummaging for a porter.)

Strangest damn thing... I’ve been craving porter something fierce today. (clinking bottles in the fridge... looking...) Feel this great need to take it to the desert. Not sure why that is...

Anyways... is there any hanging around in here?

Hello all!!!

Evening, Ms. Sky, and good night... so sad to see you leave.

Ahh... the ol’ Stray Cats... I remember that video. I thought I felt a warm thought float by me today. Thanks...

I’m good Blue, and you?....

Guinevere, dear... cheer up won’t you? (Rubbing in figure eights ‘round and round GE’s legs)

Technically, sput, yes, I would... but since I often walk around on hind quarters too..

Either way, in all seriousness... I’ve never looked into these little things and am curious. MPG? $$$?
