Oh, the places I've gone

Today my 1991 Acura Integra achieved a feat that most cars only dream about; 250,000 miles. To put things in perspective that's over 10 times the circumference of the Earth, 2,640,000,000 dollar bills laid end to end, 10,000 more miles than the distance from the center of the Earth to the Moon, and, with an average MPG of 28, 8929 gallons of gas. In case you need proof, and the fact that I could have been killed while taking these, here are pictures of my odometer:


If you are wondering about anything else in my life, no nothing is new, this is my achievement of the week so stop asking "what i'm doing" or "what's new" because the answer other than my car surviving much longer than the factory expected is nothing. If you are curious on the condition of the car, it shakes, a lot. And it smokes, a lot. For some reason my engine likes to shoot oil on itself causing billowing smoke to come out from the hood. But don't worry, other than an impending car fire, a terrible burning oil smell, and my 1 of 4 speakers being blown out the car is in grand condition.

Batman Returns

I was watching Batman Returns today and one quote seemed to really pop out at me and I would like to share. Maximillian 'Max' Shreck is played by none other than Christopher Walken and Catwomen is portrayed by Michelle Pfeiffer. I feel like this dialogue belongs in a comedy routine.

Maximillian 'Max' Shreck: I don't know what you want, but I know I can get it for you, with a minimum of fuss! Money, jewels, a *very* big ball of string.

Catwoman: Your blood, Max.

Maximillian 'Max' Shreck: My blood? I gave, at the office.
