Random Thought for Thursday 8/26/10

[Look at me, squeezing in a bonus day or two of all-home-days posts.]

Dear PA Turnpike Tunnel administrator:

As I drove through your shortcuts through the Allegheny Mountains last weekend, did I see you taking a picture of me and my vehicle? If so, is that a new post 9/11 thing for my own security and safety or have you been doing it for quite some time in the spirit of there being cameras everywhere in the public nowadays?

If you have been doing it for quite some time, can I have all the copies of the pictures that you took from me over the years?

You might think I'm interested in seeing me in all the vehicles I've had (like my first two Ford Escorts that each were driven to the 100K mark!). Or you might think that I want to see my features age over the years as my face gets fatter and my hair gets shorter (wouldn't that be an interesting art installation piece?). Or you might think that I want to see if you caught me singing along at the top of my voice each time I drove through (and how many times was I doing the same embarrassing song?).

But really I'd just like to look one more time at those who were in the front seat of my car during a particular trip that are no longer with us. Joann, DJ and David -- you are missed.

Thanks in advance for considering my request! And you can send those shots to my new address (just across the hall in my same building from the old apartment):

3702 N Wilton Ave #2N
Chicago, IL 60613
