Putting the ‘horse’ into ‘Equinox’
As is the custom in these parts, i celebrated the Spring Equinox (yesterday) today by removing the insulation tape from around the sunroof in the car that Jono and i own. The tape was there to stop the rain from coming in. Thank goodness it never rains in Springtime. I celebrated the poor performance of the car’s automatic transmission by visiting an auto mechanic. He told me i probably wouldn’t get any change out of $1000 to get it repaired.
And also! Wichita Lineman, which is my faux-favourite song, was written by Glen Cambell. I found out yesterday that Glen Cambell is the seventh son of a seventh son.

i am the third son of a third son

Old crap cars deserve good stereos. With slot-loading cd players and gastric subwoofers.
so that you can feel it in your bowels like a hebrew
I am similarly intrigued by the equinox
perhaps biking would be a cheaper alternative to owning a car :(
