PORCH DRAWING

If I were a giant multinational car maker, or even a small artisanal car maker, I would have second thoughts before naming my car a TRD, especially if it were one of those faux trucky things. And don't think I'm unaware that this is the second time in three days I've used the word "faux", because I'm not. Not unaware, not not aware. I'm trying to class up the joint, see? I'm looking for a really shiny metallic background now, maybe with gold flakes.

Uh, oh. Awareness of specific automotive models is a slippery slope to car desire and subsequent purchase, y'know. I remember when you would have just called it a "truck". (Or a "tuck".) First a nice porch, then a car. Before you know it, you'll be sucked into the whole, blessed American consumer orbit and we will have lost 'ye!

No, never! For one thing, the acquisition of a car involves the exchange of significant amounts of money, which I have no plans for amassing. That only leads to madness.

Don't, don't let the lemur get into the engine. Already this week a coyote and a cat were found in engines (different engines). Beware of the rule of three.
As a Paid Poet, very attracted to the phrase "amassing madness."
