Not a Car Guy


Take the subway. And have yourself a walk every now and again.

Changing the subject, pulled T-Bird from file. Similar enameling. Different style. Nice fellow drives. A regular with his chums.

Had an intriguing conversation with him some time after taking this shot. Somehow the talk got turned to Nietzsche and Hitler. With regard to the aphorisms, I said they were mere statements that didn't particularly go anywhere. As Nietzsche is applied to the Nazis (or was ignorantly adopted) it has to be asserted that he may have thought European Christians cowards and hypocrites but held Jesus to be a mensch.

When I told the fellow I'd read Mein Kampf, he got all flustered.
"I'd never read such trash."
"Intelligence has to."
He bugged out.

Cars are not toys nor trophies to me.
From point A to B to C is all, thanks much.
