My ride is officially pimped

Friday, May 19, 2006, 7:08 p.m.

Remember how I said, like, ages ago, that I was in the process of pimping, as they say, my new ride?

Well, here's how it looked before:

Oh-so-cute, if I do say so myself, but still in need of a little awesoming up.

And HERE is how it looks NOW:

I know. My exact words were, "EEEEEE! HOLY FUCK!"

It's still waiting for new wheels and tires and engine work and AC, but that'll happen soon. For now, it is the most rockingest car, shall we say, EVER.

The other day I had to take pictures of an on-post civilian aerobics class for the newspaper.

Am I an asshole because I sought out the most obese guy in the gym, took his picture, and put it on the front page of the sports section?

I think I've been listening to too much Denis Leary and George Carlin stand-up.
