re: #579 WindUpBird
Some people just need a vehicle, one of my coworkers was dirtass poor and lived on Mt. Hood. but she always had a car, an old VW microbus, that she could fix herself, because she had to, she couldn’t afford to pay someone else to do it.
A woman I worked with used to have a VW bus, named Bluebell. She loved it, because it was so hippie-chic, but it was outrageously unecological. She spent a lot of time fretting about Bluebell’s impact on the environment.
My suggestion was to park it permanently, and turn it into a little art studio, and she was, I think, considering that.
