You've got to be kidding
...But I really am not.
Today, as I was driving back home from work, marked the first time in my life that I really wished that I had a camera phone. People that know me well, know that I have long been an opponent of the "Multipurpose-ization" (c) of phones. I want a phone with excellent battery life, and good receiving range. User customization through a PC would be nice, too, but I never thought that a camera or video camera or texting (for an excellent rant on texting, there is an episode of "The Boondocks" where a character voiced by Samuel L. Jackson berates the idea of texting. Not for children to hear though) had any place on a phone. While I'm still not convinced that I would ever use text messaging, I sure wish my phone had a camera, so that I could share with all of you what I saw this morning.

And as I made that Link I realize that I should upgrade to v2.4, maybe later.
Anyway... That picture is a representation of the Nissan 240 I saw this morning sporting a Louis Vuitton (almost certainly counterfeit) paint-job/decal/couldn't-really-tell-for-sure. What I do know for sure is that it was just ridiculous enough to make me wish for a camera phone, something I thought I would never want.
I suppose that the driver of this vehicle could have done this paint job or decaling out of irony, I mean, it was a matte paintjob, which makes me think it may have been DIY. And the fact that this car could be an ironic statement gives me some comfort.
But what if it wasn't? (urk, I think might have thrown up a little in my mouth)
