Default Spring has sprung - time to drive...

...ta-da! Tomorrow shall be a 'drive-to-the-metro' kind of day. Looking forward to the sound of Darin's magic in the commuter traffic!

BTW: those are water drips, not oil!!!

Damn, Marlon you have a lot of faith in the Park 'N Ride lot. I would never leave my car at White Flint or Rockville Metro!

The LPMM mod has gotta' to be one of the all-time best bang for the buck mods. Astonishing - cheep - highest quality - and just...well, great. I just can't get over how awesome it is - especially during startup. I find myself rolling down both windows before cranking in the parking lot - I must be nuts...Cab guys got it made on this one!

Yeah - the metro is a disaster waiting to happen. Alternative is to drive it all the way to the parking building and pay the 18 bucks - Hmmmmmmm...(fingers rapping on the desktop, brows furrowed...)
