Once Upon a Time I owned a '67 Ford Thunderbird

Many cars were out today for the Labor Day weekend - zooming past Prius C-driving-in-the-slow-lane-me. The Testosteronemobiles (Mustangs, Chargers, Cameros, and other muscle-type cars) were conspicuously consuming - their fuel. The several gas stations I passed were overflowing with these hungry cars and their paying drivers. Meanwhile, I was perfectly comfortable with my masculinity in my puny-engined car, getting 56mpg, wearing my Oakleys, and zipping past these gas stations while listening to cool 80's music.

Still, Once Upon a Time I owned a '67 Ford Thunderbird, magnificent in her power, awesome in her rumble, and thirsty in her need for fuel...Beautiful.
