36 WHEELS AND COUNTING
Well, where is the time going? It's hot! It's already July! Back on the 28th of June, the outside temperature was 106 degrees. Yes! That's what the overhead console displayed. Normally, the van's air conditioner blows ice-cold air. Sweating and drinking plenty of water, obviously, the 2006 Chrysler Town & Country van wasn't blowing and providing the comfortable air that we are accustomed to. It's not necessary to have air conditioning to travel from one point to another. That's true! Air conditioning is a luxury. In this Texas heat, it becomes a necessity.

Lemon Drop
So, there is the story of the Tweety Bird-yellow Cannondale CAAD4 that came into, out of and back into my life in serendipitous ways. I raced on that bike as a CAT IV and then III on the Green Mountain Bicycle Cycling team from 1997 - 2002. I named that bike Lemon Drop. Yellow, yes, but I thought I could reverse jinx myself and my racing career if I had “drop” in its name, a measure of karmic control so I wouldn’t “get dropped” from the peloton in any race, and the bike would perform perfectly, never showing signs that it was a “lemon.” That didn’t work though. Karmic control is an oxymoron afterall.

Are Hybrid Cars A Smart Choice For Today’s Drivers?
A hybrid car uses two different power systems working together: a petrol engine and an electric motor. Instead of relying on one source of energy, the vehicle decides which system to use based on speed, changes in speed and how the vehicle is driven. At lower speeds, such as when moving through city streets or sitting in traffic, the electric motor often takes the lead. When higher power is needed, the petrol engine steps in. This combination is designed to reduce fuel use while keeping the driving experience familiar for everyday motorists.

The Ghost Shift: 440 Horses and a Haunted Highway
The 1970 Dodge Challenger didn’t belong in this decade. It was a block of matte-black iron in a world of plastic electric bubbles. I sat in the driver’s seat, the idle of the 440 Magnum engine vibrating through my spine—a mechanical heartbeat that felt more real than anything else in Las Vegas.
