What’s Your Eleanor? – I’m Such a Square Edition

She's PERFECT

My greatest love of all is an old, boxy lump of metal with a weezy little 1600cc motor. It screams early 1970’s middle class suburbia family wagon. I’ve seen molasses in winter move faster. It has a face only I could love and yet I lust after one, each and every day. This [...]

What's Your Eleanor? - Deartháir Edition

Where it all began — now an ornament on my parents' Christmas tree

What's Your Eleanor? - If You Have the Means Edition

The year was 1986 and a plucky young Matthew Broderick decided it was time for his high school student character to take a day off.
