Well….on Monday night, I was watching “Top Gear” specifically since they were going to do a review of the new Miata and I hadn’t seen a review or video of the car so I thought it would be kind of cool….and the piece with the Hamster started out good with them driving either a Marina or Laguna blue old one and then getting into the new one…and Hamster was really impressed with the new car…loved how it drove…that it was slow but a perfect sports car…but then, he just had to trot out the tired, old stereotype of the Miata being a car that only women and hairdressers bought throughout it’s history….now…I have only known a few women who drove sports cars (T being one of them) and I have never known a hairdresser that owned one…I will admit that I don’t know very many hairdressers so that sample may be a little skewed….I do know one thing…or two things…I’m not a woman or a hairdresser and I own a Miata…. just irritated me all to hell that they had to ruin a good segment trying to be cute….

Didn’t meander yesterday…so I will today…
Well…there have been some political things happen over the past few days but just don’t feel like doing one of those today….just want to do some meandering and see where it goes…I still can’t believe that the top on the Miata doesn’t leak even with all of the rain we’ve had over the past few days…my last convert, a Fiat 124 Spyder, leaked almost constantly and you could never get it sealed to keep the wind out…and the Miata is so much better of a car…Still no bites on the resumes this year so far and I am just so disappointed by that…and being broke is still a pain in the butt…the grill that I got for free is working like a champ and I have been grilling almost every day…have some rainbow trout to go on tomorrow and need to make a marinade for them this aft…it looks like the Red Wings aren’t going to make the playoffs this year for the first time in 21 years and that is really disappointing…but, the Tigers are hitting their stride so that will be fun to watch this summer…might be going out to have a couple with G this aft but who knows? Hmmmm…what else? One cool thing that I have found as a Miata owner is the Miata.net site where other owners hang out…without taking the car apart, I feel like I know it so much better just reading others posts…..and it gives me something to do….that’s it….
