Have you really bought a Honda? They’re all VTEC these days, even the lowliest Civic thingy, aren’t they? I only ask because I once wrote off one of the original VTEC CRX’s, the crappy one with the pop-up headlights, back when it was still a bit “Wow” to get all those horsies out of a 1600. Gutless but the frigging thing revved like it had a motorbike engine. Anyway, I do apologise, I’ve got a feeling you were joking & I’ve descended into car porn…
I love what you said about searching out traces of the unknown in oneself. It’s a rare and brilliant gem of rhetoric you’ve cut, Mike.
Oftentimes a piece takes shape long after it’s begun, only to take a twist that surprises even the author. Those highways, however, only come to light while we’re looking for them.

>>For instance, they will flock to the out-of-town malls to buy orange things from China.
