Dec 29, 2008 - Thanks Mom and Dad!

After posting the Top 10 Cars I Want for Christmas, I went down to the garage on December 25 to discover this little beauty. I jumped for joy, I praised several dieties, I may have kissed it a couple times. Sure, it was the No. 2 choice, but I suppose the Aston DBS was too tall an order. But good criminy my parents know me. It was my favorite color combination and for better or worse I love the Targa. And I guessed Dad figured I'd want that new fangled Doppleganger transmission or whatever (I wouldn't, but that's OK).

When I went back upstairs I gave Mom and Dad a huge hug and said thank you 23 times. I then exclaimed jubilently, "You read my blog!"

"What?" Dad said.

"You own a log?" Mom countered.

No, sadly this was not my Christmas present. Though I did get the super edition DVDs of Casino Royale and The Dark Knight (the latter co-labeled Le Chevelier Noir in Canada). I guess that's still pretty cool.
