For the rare among you who may be wondering if I did ever get the car, the answer is yes.  I just have been preoccupied. :)

So here it is:

It is as fun to drive as you might imagine, and quite roomy and comfortable for being a small car.  I could talk about it for a while, but I won't bore you.  If you're ever in the market, though, I definitely recommend it. 

And I promise to get back to writing about more interesting topics soon.  I actually had a whole article written yesterday, but when I asked my wife to look over it, she accidentally navigated away from the page, and I lost it.  Argh!  That's the second time I've done that.. you'd think I'd learn.  Well, the problem is that when I copy & paste from Word, it brings a bunch of crap over into the HTML, so I don't like to do that.  But if I paste into notepad, e.g., it loses hyperlinks and such.  I can't win, but I think I'll be erring on the side of extra markup from now on. hehe
