As I bump my Phantom of the Opera CD on my way to my Aunts house to take care of the puppies I think to myself, THEY MUST ABOLISH THE STUPID CARPOOL LANE!!!!!!

1. NO ONE USES THEM
2. When they do, they drive REALLY REALLY slow.

Why do I care so much? Why not. This is why I care about this. I drive to Morgan Hill every morning, against the way of busy traffic, and there’s NO ONE in the carpool lane. Ok, so, they won’t get rid of the carpool lane in the near future, but I’d like to dream. I mean, at least make the carpool lane on only when you’re going with traffic, NOT when you go against traffic. OK, so I see the usefullness of the carpool lane, that is, when people use it correctly. On the odd occasion when it IS busy and I AM using the carpool lane, and you’re driving slowly in the carpool lane, get the f’k out of my way. Hell, even if I’m NOT in the carpool lane, get the f’k out of my way. Am I making any sense? I don’t think I am.

I look in today’s Mercury News in the ”Valley” section to see on the front page that Corbin Motors is filing for Chapter 7, with debts totalling 10million dollars. For those that don’t know what I’m talking about or don’t even know why I care, I dunno what to say but check the links below. If you saw Austin Powers: Goldmember you’ll notice a weird looking vehicle that Goldmember drove. That’s the Sparrow that was Corbin’s first released vehicle. I wanted to get their Merlin, a one seater, fully enclosed, single lambo door, motorcycle. Yes, it’s registered as a MOTORCYCLE, so you can use it in the carpool lane and motorcylce parking spots! But, now that might just be a dream as the $17-24K e-car might be no more. Now I might have to expect to pay like $50,000+ on eBay if I ever want to get a hold of one. Damn, now I’ll never get one of these cars… eR… motorcycles… uM… whatever you want to call it. …Now I have to settle for the T-Rex OR the Grinnall.
