Default Just got back from Miami...

Saw some nice cars there (Porsche Carerra GT, Lambos, etc.) and a lot more Audis than I was expecting. Saw several Audi convertibles driven by blondes (is this like a fashion thing there?).

Noticed that people in Miami will line up to use an ATM that just says "ATM" on it and has no other info. Also noticed that people actually TAKE those advertising handouts given to them by people on the street (opposite behaviour of Las Vegas!).

Was only there for two evenings waiting for flights, so I didn't bother to look for Meegis.

When I got to Buffalo, had to dig my car out of the snow in the airport, and then when I got back to Toronto I had to shovel my driveway just to get my car into it (at 4 AM). My neighbors (who I had kindly asked to look after my house while I was gone) had actually shoveled their snow onto my driveway!!!

Glad I missed the storm though.

Default But the verts make WAY more sense there. Up here, they're just a pain,

down there they can be used daily.

You'd be surprised how often they are closed. Most people don't put the top down EVER.
