We are considering hosting the Superbowl party over at our house this weekend. I’m thinking if I can borrow the projector from work, we could have a very big screen tv. My house is kinda small, but it might be fun, everyone sitting on the floor watching the game on the big screen.
Last week when I drove to Portland I drove a Ford Taurus. It was not a bad ride, considering it was a rental. Very comfortable front wheel drive yacht feeling. This got me thinking about the Ford Fusion, the replacement for the Taurus, which I recall sitting in at the auto show and being impressed by it’s subdued interior styling. Didn’t look like a domestic car, more like an audi. They are offering a $200 lease on them, with no money down. Never having done a lease, I’m skeptical, but really realize how convenient it would be to have a decent car for long distance trips to Beaverton, OR. I hear they are going to come out with hybrid + awd models in a few years. That would have sealed the deal.
On the other hand, I can rent a car when I need one, and use the train, and bike commute to work. Not only would this be more environmentally sensitive, it would keep me in shape and save me money. The thing is, I’m driving Kei’s car every day to work anyway, so it would be good to not steal her mobility for my slothfulness.
