My Taxi is Almost Full (Taxi Vignettes)

My Taxi is Almost Full

This morning I did a 4:45am pick up. By 5:45am I was a hundred dollars richer, so I figured while I was in Starbucks I might as well help out old Paul.

Along the side of the case it reads: At the end of the end--It's the start of a journey--To a much better place--And a much better place--Would have to be special--No reason to cry. On the day that I die--I'd like bells to be rung--And songs that were sung--To be hung out like blankets in...

memory almost full

I pre-ordered the album on iTunes -- I'd say the first half is pretty good. It reminded me of the better stuff from Wings. I'm not sure what happened to the other half of the album... I didn't like it all too much.

I drove old Paul...with wife Linda(she was a classy lady, you actually could see, they loved each other), in late 1995, while they were in New Orleans. I pretended like I didn't know them...until he paid me. He appreciated it ! I recognized her from article in paper day before, it was closeup picture with her camera, and she had an unusual bracelet on. All the way, to where they were going about 20 minute ride( it's surprising what you can learn about poeple)...I was thinking,,,what is he doing in MY CAB !! LOL!!I laugh about it,it made my day, I liked some of the music in Wings. Might get the CD..that I-tune commercial is a kick. As a teenager..I hated the Beatles...girlfriends loved them !!

About

I got my first computer early in the Summer of 2004, and began blogging almost immediately. Thanks to blogging I have been a part of several newspapers and online blogs. By that August I was featured in the lead story of the Tech Section in the San José Mercury News. Then what a pleasant surprise it was to find that my blog, "Taxi Vignettes" was the reason I was chosen as the best local blogger of the year (2006) by the Metro Newspaper. Fall of '06, I was contacted by a reporter, asking if I would be willing to be the topic of her next story in The Willow Glen Resident. It was a cool two pages including photos. Am I having fun yet?
