I love driving, especially in my zippy Subaru Forester. Handles snow and ice like a dream. Would not like anybody else to drive my car as I am the best driver I know. Riding in a car is boring.

If I were going to have a servant, first on my list would be a personal chef. I would do the shopping and pick the recipes, then someone else would cook and clean up.

Next on my list would be a maid/cleaning person, to clean the bathrooms and kitchen, vacuum and mop, wash the walls, etc. I am actually thinking about looking for a cleaning person. Everybody in the house works long hours, and it would be very nice to come home to a clean house. Even nicer if said person would empty the kitty litter boxes and take out the trash. The idea is good but in reality letting a stranger into the house while I am at work is not something I feel comfortable with.

I often dream about paying somebody to wash my car, not just the outside but the inside, too. But the cost for auto detailing is high.

I do pay Joe and Mitch, neighbor boys, to mow the lawn and pull weeds. Very, very nice to come home to a mowed lawn. Well worth $20 a week.

M. Autocar would be more like catching a taxi, but one without a driver. I only meant trains in the 'hands free sense'.. my hockey example complete with parking is like you are saying far better.. any point to any point.. Perfect..

It wasn't really all that much fun driving a car at 70 mph along 401 heading for Ottawa from Cornwall with huge amounts of snow on the road and everywhere You were speeding ?? Huge amounts of snow on the highway and fast is fun ... but you must no what you are doing... Some of the best fun was driving up the Laurentian Autoroute when it was officially closed due to snow.. It's like a car rally :O)


mama always told me not to look into the eyes of the sun, but mama.....

but mama... that's where the fun is ....

must be the cave man in me :o)
