  1. Nice sunny Saturday, good day for a drive up the coast and a lobster roll.
  2. You do embrace change better than I do. I probably do it better than most Americans, though. It might take a while. It takes me considerably longer to do things left handed. I periodically try just to try.
  3. Having gone to college in Japan, I drove my host families' sons R33 Skyline all the time. I was surprised how easy it is to shift with the left hand, the pedals are still in the same place even though you're on the right side of the auto to drive it. Was not a big deal to me, but then change I have always embraced and so if you have a hard time with change, then you might have a really hard time driving a right side auto.
  4. Another thing that periodically comes to mind: For people who live in the UK, Japan, Australia, etc., the steering wheel is on the right side of the passenger cabin when looking toward the front. If a person is right handed, like the majority of people, wouldn't it be difficult to operate a manual transmission shifter placed to the left of you? It might even be a little bit harder to move an automatic around. I look at photos of these cars and get a little bewildered. I try to mentally imagine myself behind the wheel and it's not easy.
  5. Subaru + me = laughter ... one of my quirks. They are huge around the Smokies and in states like Virginia, Pennsylvania, and New York. They are extremely popular in New England ... when a local lady saw me taking a photo of one of those transporters loaded up with Soobies near Boston, presumably going to dealerships, she said something like, 'They practically spawn here.'
