TABLE OF CONTENTS CALENDAR what's going on BITE comfort food HEALTH tattoo removal OUT life as a barista EDITOR'S NOTE Driving time, for me, is synonymous with "panic time." I can neither read a map nor see well at night; I don't have a sense of fear. sense of direction (never mind a good one); and both depth perception and timing are serious challenges. I devise ways to stay out of the driver's seat. Needless to say, I've never been really in to cars. I'm still driving (when I have to) the '94 Oldsmobile that I got used from Grandma in 2000, and I don't have a desire to replace it. I think of cars as a means to get from A to B and a venue for wretched solo singing, and that's about it. The extent of my vehicular decorating is a rosary on the rear-view mirror (I need all the help I can get) and some red scratches on the front right from an unfortunate 2002 incident in McCollum's parking lot involving a parked car. So I was impressed with the tremendous investment the men in Fred A. Davis Ill's article have made in their wheels, I never would have thought to put shiny stuff on my car to symbolize wealth, status and hard work. But now I know it makes an effective (albeit obnoxious) statement. And they earned it, too. Love them or fear them, a car is more than just wheeled metal that gets you around — it's representative of its owner. Which makes me, evidently, as cool as a mid-90s grandma.
