    This is my first V.I.S.I.T. posting for Hooniverse, and I have been saving up this gem for quite a while. Since this category is suppose to be “Vehicles I Saw In Traffic”, I’m going to rename it for my purposes as “Vehicles I Spotted (while) In Transit!”, because this jewel was not in any traffic…

    I had to leave work early today to meet my better half; ’twas a scheduled meeting to lend spousal support for a medical consultation, and I knew when to meet her and what it was for… but she neglected to tell me the place.   I knew it was with a specialist, but that only narrowed…

    One of my buddies is a film director. As that’s a gig that offers a modicum of downtime, he gets in some exercise by hiking up the wending roads of the Hollywood Hills behind his house. Those be-sneakered sojourns allow him to contemplate life’s more important questions- such as why won’t Scorsese return his calls? and…

    I think for the most part, the winter snowpacalypse is behind us.  It has been a rather dry winter (in the car-spotting sense) and (in Utah, the snow-spotting sense) things are starting to shape up as far as I can tell.  Infact just the other day I spotted this uber-rare (stateside anywho) Skyline.  I fully…

        There are a few cars out there that will make me pull a u-turn on the street to get a closer look. The Grand National is one such car.

    At first glance you would think you were dealing with one of those Exalibur things popular among the rich and tasteless back in the 80’s and 90’s.  Proof that money and style don’t always go hand-in-hand.

    Let me preface this by saying I had an OUTSTANDING weekend.  I rented a car and drove to central Utah for a funeral.  I know what you are thinkin “but Schmo, how can a funeral lead to a great weekend?”  Well the service was a wonderful tribute to a wonderful lady who spent her 90+…
