    I don't think I would have gotten anything done in school. I'd be too busy staring out the window! BGC is in constant motion, and is always a stop when I come to the city.

    I'm starting med school at Rush and moving to Harrison and Taylor in two weeks, and will be sure to take the camera out with me every time. More to come!

    Hey, are you a Limey? Drop-top/Drop-head are British terms; I also use them as I'm an ex-Canuck!

    Hehe!

    Spotted last night on LSD: Yellow Cinquecento. A real one, really old and puttering. First time I've seen one here. Too cute.

    I don't think I've ever seen one, either here or abroad. I'm surprised you even knew what it was!

    Great spot Grand Poobah.....:)

    In Switzerland we call them "Italian backpacks": When you're done driving, you put them on your back and walk away. :)

    Half of Rome is "powered" by them.

    ---------NEWS ALERT---------NEWS ALERT----------

    Speaking anonymously, since I haven't been given clearance, Tony Tag will be on the new Jay Leno show. From what I understand, taping will take place this coming week and his 360 will be spotlighted.

    Don't have specifics yet, but will post more info when known. I believe his car is scheduled to go to Ed's for some service before taping.

    Even before your post I have been predicting that the new Jay Leno show will flop. Now I'm certain. Not that I don't like Tony Tag, but if he gets national coverage, you know that show is in trouble for lack of substance.

    That sounds very cool. Are you sure it wasn't a Ford GT Heritage edition?

    Not sure. I don't really keep up with those cars. What's the "Heritage Edition"? I tried to chase him down for a pic but he was really movin' and I got caught by the light.
