This brings me back. I loved Adam Ant in high school. Of course I wonder if he did this song just so he could say “Pussy.” heh. heh.

Blogging in November – plus my first uploaded video
Well, I am not doing NaNoWriMo this year. Not enough time. But, in solidarity with my NaNo friends, I will participate in NaBloPoMo!Last night I helped my parents with their trick-or-treaters. This lovely pumpkin greeted each child:
Sweet, Huh?
We had 62 trick-or-treaters. Most of them liked the pumpkin.
Naughty
Aristophanes’ The Clouds is pretty naughty. (The link is so you can read its naughtiness.)
I rebooted my car today
It was time to leave the mall. I started my car. The sun was out, and since my car was parked in the sun, it was hot inside. So, like people do, I proceeded to roll down the power window.
Click.
Huh?
Driver’s side window wasn’t working. Click. Tried passenger side. Click. Back-window vents. Click.
Shit.
Maybe it was a fuse. I got out my trusty instruction manual. My power windows are on the same fuse as the ignition, yet my car was running. So…
I turned my car off.
I turned it back on.
My window worked.
Seriously, I rebooted my car!
Aww Shucks
Here are the comments from the van-naming survey:
1. Lanna is awesome! Have a cookie!
2. I also name my vehicles, my new car is mary, I like the stephen king reference….
3. I say HMC Blanche as in Her Majesty’s Chariot “Blanche”. On the other hand with the Haiwaiin flowers and depending on how you drive the Stitch mobile ( as in Lilo and STitch) might be more appropriate. Maybe Ohona van? clearly its too early for me:)
4. She has always depended upon the kindness of (Ford) Rangers.
5. I like Moby – the Great White MiniVan. Good idea, that one. But for some reason, when i saw the picture of the minivan the first time, the name “Beaver” sprang to mind. I don’t even know if it’s “Beaver” as in “The Beave” or as in the dam-builder.
Next post: the new name!
Eartha Kitt – I Want To Be Evil (Live Kaskad 1962)
I love this song!
The Lannaination has begun!

(Pink Hawaiian flowers – on both sides of car. Sweet!)
To that end, I have created a survey to help me name the car: Click Here to take survey
If you are not up-to-speed, on July 18th, my car caught fire.

On fire here. (Originally posted on August 10th, 2007) (Worth a look-see if you haven’t seen them yet.)
So, what do you say? Survey!
Vicky On Fire
One of our visiting high school students took some pictures of my car on fire. Here are some of them:
I think the fire-people had way too much fun:
