B...What a great attitude! Very admirable, indeed.<br /><br />Back in the day, I worked for the a.m. newscast for the NBC affiliate in Peoria, IL. I had to be at work at 4am, so I was in my little Toyota hatchback at 3:30am. In the wintertime, the doors would freeze shut. But I could get in through the hatchback, crawl over the back seat and shimmy into the front. If you kept the gas tank full, it started no matter how cold it was. Loved that about that car.

Although I found it hard to become accustomed to being awake at that time it was a memorable insight into the world around me. <br /> One funny story: One day as I was walking along I decided to check my watch to see I wasn't running late. Being the only one on the street, taxi driver saw my sudden movement and pulled over thinking I had hailed him. He was very cross with me as I tried to explain I was only checking my watch. That never would have happpened during the day :-)Ruskinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16649005553043895008noreply@blogger.com
