I had to take my baby(The Prius) into the shop all day today. There was a defect in the steering column (or something to that affect--with me it's "blah blah blah car parts blah blah"), and it was also time for my 30,000 mile service. 18 months and 30,000 miles. Not bad.
Anyway, they gave me a free rental. A dadgum Toyota Corolla. Corollas are great cars, but man, the Prius is far more comfy. I wish they would give me a comparable car for the day instead of giving me the low end rental. Foo.
But, it's transportation, and that's cool.
The fact that an article was written that features Bobby Brown, Whitney Houston, Osama bin Laden and the phrase "sex slave" is a greater horror than anything else I care to imagine.

The corolla is a very zippy, good car. It's just that the Prius and Corolla drive a bit differently, and of course all the bells and whistles are missed. I got used to it again on the drive home. :-)
