My first Buffy was Restless!
Willow: Something evil-crashed to earth in this. Then it broke out and slithered away to do badness.
Giles: Well, in all fairness, we don't really know about the "slithered" part. Anya: No, no, I'm sure it frisked about like a fluffy lamb.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Low-30s seems pretty good highway MPG for a 4WD SUV to me. I commuted 30 miles from the Springs to Elbert County for seven years in an '84 Toyota Tercel wagon, and I got about 32 MPG in 2WD, and 28 MGP when I had to switch into 4WD.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I'm still earwormed with the "TION" song from the Electric Company.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Are you going to be commuting over Monument Hill?
How big is this "hill?" B/c as much as I love my Darla (Civic Hybrid), she does not enjoy when I take her to Asheville. That one big incline on the way there? I get passed by everyone but 18 wheelers. 3 cylinders, yo.

Well, downtown Colorado Springs is at about 6000', and Monument Hill (about 18 miles north) tops out at about 7400' where I-25 crosses the Palmer Divide on the way to Denver. It's not an extreme slope, it's just that it's high enough and oriented just right (or wrong, depending on your point of view) to trigger and catch rain, ice, and snow.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yeah, I get about 17mpg in my AWD van. So any improvement is a good thing. And I really really need at least AWD given our dirt roads.

Trust my rage
Yeah, the Palmer Divide is very much a border. Storms often stop or start there. We used to live just south of there butnow we are way more south.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I've been walking around the office with a stupid grin on my face this week. I have no idea why. I think my alter ego must be getting laid.

I used to work here. Sigh. I miss it, even though it broke me.

Wow. I love Colorado so much. We live on Cheyenne Mt. Now. It's so beautiful although your view of the mountains is better.
