Sympathy

Sympathy is a funny thing.  Sometimes you feel it strongly toward someone.  Other times you don't feel any sympathy at all.


Mexican cartels steal billions from oil industry

I feel no sympathy toward the oil industry in this case whatsoever.  Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go drive Rubi, my big fucking SUV that gets fifteen miles to the gallon.

How I'll Be Spending This Morning

This morning I'm dropping my Rubi off at the dealership for scheduled maintenance.  She'll be down there for most of the day, and I will almost certainly have to leave her there overnight.  I also suspect they may find some further problems.  Honestly, I fear the worst.  By the way, Rubi is my car.  My 2008 Mercury Mountaineer is named after the first album I listened to when I first drove her home: Crossing The Rubicon by The Sounds.  I love that album, and I love my Rubi.  However both can be replaced if the need arises.
