CARPOOL:

There’s a song in there somewhere.

My friend and colleague, Memphis, and I have been carpooling for the entire month of April, and I must say it has been quite a success. Again to preserve miles on the VW and save gas money. Dave Ramsey would approve I bet.

So far, I’ve saved $100 in gas money participating in the carpool.
PLUS we get to drive in the carpool lane! This is a new-improved-freshened- up carpool lane.

I always thought the carpool lane was for zipping past everyone else that got bogged down in traffic. It’s always funny to me when we steer over to take advantage of the carpool lane, and in unison exclaim DVP CARPOOL! After settling in the new improved carpool lane feeling oh-so-L.A. and oh-so-green - we watch everyone in the cool, younger, faster cars zip past us. It’s funny and deflating at the same time. It almost feels cartoonish (pun unintended). Simpsonsesque is a better word.

Thanks for checking in.
