Canada report # 34


We were driving out to Carter’s parents campground another day. As we were driving I started to think about something seemingly insignificant yet somehow profound: Texas Gates.
I think that whoever invented those was a very brilliant man (or a woman, but I doubt that). It is a simple yet very clever invention. Cows can’t cross it, yet cars can. Can you imagine that there are people who can find solutions to simple things like that? He is probably dead, but his invention is used all over the north America. I wonder was his name Texas or was he from Texas.
P.S. The reason I said that I doubt that woman invented it is not because I think that they are incapable, they most defiantly are. It was more because of the specifics of the invention I tend to see that was more men project. But I might be wrong.

Foreign guy and Rusty


This is my buddy Rusty. He is fun to hang out with. He is the greatest car-friend one can have. If I forget to put on my seat belt he says, “Hey bucket-head put the belt on NOW!” In car it sounds more like – Bep, bep, bep. Sometimes he gently says to me, “What do you think I am electro station, turn the head lights off.” (Beep, bep, beeeep) But just another day he told me, “Hey you, pink android with mush instead of a processor, what are you leaving the keys in for?” (beep, beep, beep)
He is an awesome car friend to have, especially now, when my 2 best friends are gone for a honey moon. There is something not right when your two best friends get married, now every time one of them will be gone another one will drag along. But what can you do, life is not always a blubbery muffin.
