This car is simply in amazing shape.  It was one of the very first MINI Cooper’s sold (I have the t-shirt “#31″ to prove it).  It only has 33,219 miles on it.  It has been garaged its entire life.  The paint still has that new car shine to it.  The interior is immaculate as well.  It was the winner of the 2002 MINI Poker Rally at Long Beach MINI (OK… so it was a game of luck… but hey!  Good luck never hurts, right?)

The long and the short of it is that this is a car that has been well loved and well taken care of.  If you are in the market for a sure thing car at a great price, this is the one.  I’d love to see it go to a good owner who will be as excited about it as I have been.

• 2002 MINI Cooper

Dad, if you had a gun with an elasticat over the top of it, and you fired the gun, would the bullet go through the elasticat, or would the elasticat get pulled away by the bullet.

I burst out laughing.

Totally stumped me.  As a Dad, I try to have answers to most questions that come up… (even if I don’t know the truth).  But this one just had me baffled.

As I was laughing, I realized he wasn’t saying “elasticat”, but rather “elastic hat”.

However, this only caused me to laugh harder, because the thought of his brain mulling over this very clear picture of an “elastic hat”, which I couldn’t possibly even imagine… what does an elastic hat look like?… oh boy… it was too much for me.  I laughed until it hurt.  And Lucas was totally confused about why I was laughing so hard, but got caught up in it with me, and we just laughed and laughed together for about 10 minutes.

Such good stuff.  I will certainly remember the elasticat.
