Ok, I understand LOL. At least we do not deal with salt. I would go nuts if I lived there. It has been two days of rain and not cleaning my car..and I am bored to tears. Todd (Uma)

No sh*t, Todd.
I'm about ready to kill myself not cleaning Blackie.

You know my Blackie is outside 24/7, but I still make sure it is the *shiniest* car in the campus lot! Sure was a pretty gnarly ride into Irvine this morning.

On a side note, I almost fired one of my student Peer staff when she asked if my car was parked by the School of Engineering as she saw one that looked like mine--I asked did it have pink pinstripes? She said no, but it's a PT Cruiser, right?

I love my students.
I'll bet you straightened that young whipper-snapper out!!

Guess what I did while it was raining today--detailed/polished my SS!! (in the garage, of course!)...

I figured since it was "already" raining, my polishing would NOT bring-on the Rain Gods as usual... (I gotta keep pace with Blackie!)...

Well--them "Easterners" can laugh at us during the Summer when we will be told "car washes not allowed due to water shortages"...

Oh Greg, Todd and I need to show you the "Tim-method" of cleaning that doesn't involve water. Will work wonders for our upcoming drought--but it sure is raining enough where I think we will be ok!

Todd and I are quite envious of you being able to clean the SS!
And for the record, it is Todd I have to keep pace with in regards to keeping Blackie clean.
I'm filthy compared to Uma!

I'm afraid Mitzi has got a raw deal lately...junk mail on the floor, filthy floor mats, water spots, dirty whitewalls... I think I need an intervention!

I just wish it would quit raining out all the weekends. My darling car-washer only washes on Sat/Sun (but the interior is all my fault).

I hear you, I grew up back east, I hate the salt. But at least people know how to drive in weather back there. LOL, Todd (uma)
