27.05.2006 - Funny Stuff: In Praise Of Rental Cars

<p>Rental cars these days also have buttons all over the steering wheel, which makes me <em>very happy.</em> This is because like all rational, mature adults, I want to be Speed Racer. All I need is a child and his chimp in the trunk and I'm ready to rock. It's not precisely totally 100 percent the same, though, because Speed's buttons transformed the car into a boat and launched a robot homing pigeon, while my buttons engage cruise control. In all honesty, I'm about 400 times more likely to use cruise control as I am to need a robot pigeon, but it would be nice to have both.</p>
