Thanks to Adam Drew for suggesting that we get a Honda Element in 2003. Today it rolled up to 100,000 miles. Except for the deer we totaled in 2007 outside Lexington, Kentucky, and a couple of flat tires, our rides with the Element have been great. Thanks, Adam!

It really doesn’t matter, but I do feel somehwat safer with Lindsey Lohan behind bars. Now if we can get the papparazzi — who will now start the incessant Countdown To Lindsey’s Freedom — to turn off their cell phones and check themselves into The Gray Bar Hotel, we’ll be all set.
