Subaru says that its new Baja is the World's First Multiple Choice Vehicle, but it sure looks an awful lot like an old Dodge Rampage to me.

I should know: I walked by one every day on my way to school.

In the Eighties.

I mean, doesn't the Dodge Rampage* fit the "Part Car. Part Truck. All Choice." moniker?

If I ever find out who is responsible for civilization returning to the late seventies / early eighties, I'll remind them what happened next.

Fluorescent yellow and green outfits.

* see also the Chevrolet El Camino and Ford Ranchero (the oldest of the bunch, apparently).

No Island Boy at work today, Sappho took off early for the chiro. Wearisome day, hopefully a productive day. Tomorrow is going to be 2nd verse, same as the first.

Things I'm glad to have; not an all-inclusive list, but a good one.

• Love


• Hope


• Smarts


• Chutzpah


• Health

G'night, dear journal.

My uncle was a big fan of the El Camino...I seem to remember him having at least two. The last one was a lovely butter yellow color. Quite fetching, actually. ;)

When I was in high school, the El Camino was over-trendy. I think the parking lot had four of them.

Ha..Sophmore year of high school - I had a fluorescent yellow, giant Tee that said Esprit (another sign of the 80's) across the front, as well as matching maryjane/little girl socks. The ideas came from one of Madonna's first vids.

...but really I'm only 24 right now. ;)

I never liked those El Caminos. :P

I liked 'em, but would've preferred the ghostbuster-mobile.
