symptomatic emblematic enigma



As the punch line to an old British joke goes, I may be a loony but I'm not
daft!   If these things are selling for $125 each, then Mrs. Blueberry will
be wearing these age wrinkles with pride for a long time to come.  These
must be the own glued on parts in the car!

Its an odd "guy" thing.  We are driven to do certain things substantially
outside of logic.  Raking around in rusty and soggy debris counts, I
believe.  Every once in a while I get this "reality moment" when the big
picture of my descent into absurdity becomes almost painfully apparent.  It
doesn't stop me, of course.  I just have to add it to the already
overwhelming body of evidence that life borders on the edge of total
insanity and the line to be crossed is always remarkably close.  It isn't
hard at all to be eccentric.  It's foolish but its fun.

I would imagine Dr. Mopar is at liberty to sell anything he wants from any
car he has not yet sold to someone.  He separates those sold intact, and
identifies them as such and I saw no trace of that, so far, on any of the
Imperials.
