It is true, also that I am so worthless and empty that I don't
deserve the capital letter. It is not because I have a big car
and do not need it. Nor because I am trying to be sort of arty,
left-wingy and cutsy. It is a true measure of a lack of life.
Talking about cars, since no one seems to be talking about html
or css, I got another note on my windscreen on the weekend,
someone wanting to buy mine. This is at least the 5th in 3 weeks.
Ford XY's are the most collected cars in Australia. They are a
sort of hobby for collectors and investors who can sink up to
$100,000 into them.
When I explained to the guy who left the note that he would be
needing to tempt me to give it up and one or 2 grand would not do
the trick, he proceeded to tell me, politely enough, that it was
so bad that it was not worth more than 1 but that he would give
me 1.5. I told him that it was not even worth 2 bob. But that I
needed at least 5 for the trouble of getting another car.
He then offered me $200 for the number plates! He would arrange
others (all legal) for me. I told him I would not bother unless
he offered 500, at least that would be a mornings or even a days
work for me, there would sure to be messing about, going to motor
registeries etc. He wanted the "old style" number plates or
numbers. Not into those those things, myself.
Did you enjoy our little chat Travis? I know, it is me talking to
the wall. Again!
