It has been a long time since my last post, and for that, I apologize. I haven’t had much worth writing about lately.
Yesterday, I went over to the Milford Proving Grounds yesterday for a tour, and I got to stay for the Technology Show, which is a showcase of all the the powertrain technology. They had a bunch of cars out for people to drive, and I tried an Escalade, a Saab 93, and an Astra from Germany. The show-stealer was the Corvette Z06 with 505hp. It was absolutely amazing. It was cool to get to see the Powertrain facilities and all of the test tracks as well.
I also went to see the new Steve Carell movie, Little Miss Sunshine, which was brilliant. The story centered around a disfunctional family taking their daughter to the Little Miss Sunshine beauty contest. The whole movie was hilarious, but the ending at the beauty contest stole the show. It’s a pretty low budget, small time movie so it’s not showing in southern Illinois or Terre Haute. That’s just another reason I much prefer living in cities.
