This is OT, but this got me thinking of you Carleton...the other night I was leaving a pub late, maybe 2 a.m. and there was this gorgeous antique Buick left in the lot. Apparently the guy who owns it was escorted from the premises and given a lift home, too drunk to drive and the Buick apparently wouldn't start anyway. He left the car there for several days, if you can beleive it and as I was admiring it, I noticed it was unlocked! I have no idea what these are worth but the car was completely mint looking. Perfect. I did take a respectful peek inside. Who leaves a car like that sitting unlocked for several days? Something dodgy there...

Anyway it looked exactly like this - same color, trim, everything.
