This is just a PSA to everyone having weather issues, including issues the weather has caused; the house next to me is for sale, and it has a three car garage and a pool that you can invite me over to swim in.

We had VERY heavy rain & hail here last night. Thank goodness for a garage & a carport. The yard looked like a lake on all sides of the house for a while but luckily it stayed away from the house & garage. Forcasters totally blew that one. They barely mentioned some "showers". More rain today then potentially severe storms predicted for Thursday. It is back to the grind today. I hope my commute goes batter & I feel les disoriented in the new facility today. Have a good day guys & gals.

I need that house and mental health treatment!

A little background on me: Just turned 63, a college professor, car nut since age 4 when I helped Dad buy a new 1955 Olds 2-door '98' hardtop. That only got me started so 3 weeks later talked Dad into buying Mom a matching color 1955 Olds Starfire '98' conv. From then on Dad only took me car shopping with him which is funny because my older brother later became an automotive designer. Family never bought anything but 2-door or convertible models and to this day I have never owned a 4-door.

Lived in an Air Force family and grew up in so many states hard to remember as well as Japan and Germany. As an adult relocated to many states as well as spending time in Qatar and since 2003 a permanent resident of Canada, Ottawa Ontario the nations capital. Plan on staying here until the end even though I hate winters. Still have not unpacked all my boxes since I moved here from Dallas in 2003, but at my age feel no need to hurry anything.

Currently drive a 2011 2LT summit white that I special ordered mid May 2010 and took delivery early Aug. 2010. Like to have my autos my way so most of my favorites over the years I factory ordered. Also have a 1998 Riviera pearl white low mileage summer only garage queen that was my South Carolina aunts last Riviera. Over the decades she owne many different white Riviera's and I was the only one in the family she took car shopping. Regardless of where I lived at the time, Aunt would give me 2-weeks notice to go car shopping. I was expected to do the research, report on time, we would test drive 4 of her favorites, yet she kept buying white Riviera's. She blamed me for her passion for white cars when in 1976 I came to visit driving my then new 1976 white Eldorado convertible. Loved my aunt dearly and she loved to drive and drive fast. I still keep her tradmark red umbrella in the supercharged Riviera and remember all the road trips we experienced together. Sad that so many younger people today don't have all the wonderful family road trip memories I experienced with my family back in the "old days".

I only drive both the Riviera and Camaro about 1,500 miles per year each. I bought the Camaro because I loved the body style and wanted a style I would like well into my 70s. Still think its a keeper. First mid-life crisis in my mid 40s, quit my designer job in NYC and earned a grad degree. Second mid-life crisis in my late 50s, bought a Camaro (much less expensive and time consuming than earning yet another degree!). Thankfully my bucket list is just about completed except come spring must get all this damn road salt crap washed away on my Camaro.
