Does it really cost a lot? She Who Must be Obeyed said to me that Project Orange must be costing HK$200,000 (US$25,641). Now that would be a bargain. For once the dumb shmuck that I am when it comes to women did something out of their book - when asked a question they do not want to answer, smile and change the topic. Everyone is happy that way. My problem is that I am not good with figures. Did I do accountancy once? Can't remember. And there is my other problem, an early onset of Alzheimer's - just can't remember those unimportant small things like what I spent on the Ninemeister +3 kit. Just trivia. What price can be put on a great vision and a man's dream? What price do you put on such great fun? The only other thing which gives me this level of pleasure is karting. Reminds me of a line from a favourite Aussie movie, The Castle, which goes something like "There is nothing like the smell of 2-stroke in the morning."
If you can spend it, enjoy it.

However, every time I get in the driver's seat, it all feels okay.
