has gotten much too interesting. Yesterday I drove home behind a Bentley. And I spent most of the time wondering how it is possible to make a Bentley so boring. It was seriously beige with nondescript everything, including the driver. Now I'm all for understatement, but this was ridiculous.

You Asked

and I try to please my public. So here is where I won't be for the next week and a half -- on the road, coming home from work.
