I really dig the custom art! Being stuffed in a Rabbit for any length of time is admirable. I remember one time we planned this vacation to Sacramento, about 3 hours away. It was a sweltering day. My parents had 3 cars at the time, all junkers. First we took the 88 Cutlass and were driving about 2 hours before it started to overheat. I remember my dad throwing his cigarette out the window and turning back. Then we got into the Buick and made it a little farther but it too started to overheat. We finally gave up and went home. On the way back the cigarette my dad threw out caused a small fire on the side of the highway and we saw firetrucks scrambling. That was about it.

I wanted to include more pictures, but I would have missed the deadline. Coloring takes [me] way longer than it seems like it should. Maybe next time, I'll use some black and white drawings if I get short on time. I'm so glad you like it. You should see it full size. Some of the character is lost here, like scaling a record cover down to CD size.
You feel you know what I experienced...really the best compliment I can receive. That is my goal as a writer. Thank you.

One of my favorite "steak" memories, now finally told in the elegant form of an article. Yes!
I love this story, and have since you mentioned bits and pieces of it a year or more ago. Now though, I really feel like I know what you were experiencing during that trip and your first encounter with the digital world of video games. It's great to see your writing again my friend. You never disappoint!
