I wasn't talking about Spa. I was talking about the offbeat colors like orange, lime and purple.

Spa is the headturner in the group. It is the color to buy if you want to "wow" someone with your car. It is the hottie in the skintight mini skirt and high heels.

Silverstone is the classy color, it is sophisticated and smart. It is grey flannel and French perfume worn properly.

White is like Silverstone but frosty and aloof.

Black is strong and powerful.

Red is the traditional sportscar color. It is hot and sexy.

Sebring, and to a lesser degree Suzuka, is the girl next door. You never noticed her before but once you opened your eyes she turned out to be the most beautiful woman you've ever seen, and the most fun to be with.

Those are the great colors. Lime, and orange are passing fads.

Perky,

What is the mood there? Solemn? Reflective? Angry? All of the above?

Well, I didn't speak with that many people today, but I would say solemn and reflective. I think some of the victims and their families from the Pentagon look at it and can't tell anything happened, unlike NYC where there is a huge hole in the ground. That is both good and bad. Some think it is wonderful that it was restored so quickly. Others feel people will forget. I seriously doubt that...I certainly won't. I walked home from Capitol Hill that day with that black smoke rising overhead and watched it burn for three days. Then I watched its rebuilding over the next year. Not to mention the strangely quiet skies over National Airport for weeks, except for helicopters constantly patrolling the area.

Yeah i saw the army green z4.
I was talking to the salesman about it.
I asked him you think that thing is going to help sale it by putting it in the front?
He just said we ordered to see what it's going to look like.
And he even shaked his head on the color. And we laffed at it.
Next week they parked that thing in the back.

Thursday night, 09/11/03, 11:05 P.M. 68*F and Clear.

The second anniversary. An uneventful day, thank goodness. In memory of all of those who died at the hands of madmen.

Good night.
