Words are boring. It's the photographs and illustrations that make even the most mundane things more interesting. Heck, just a bunch of words written in an image space and the interest level would rise. It's that illusion that there's an image there that entices us.

The Talon is Sick

The illustrious Talon is sick again. I honestly must love pain or blowing tons of money. I've threatened this car on many occasions... with a rag in the gas cap, the scrap yard, drowning on the river, sledgehammers, ect... nothing seems to work! BUT for some reason I keep him around. I guess it is kinda like having a smoking hot boyfriend who is a total dbag and braindead. He's so good looking and rocks your world, that one forgets he's utterly useless for anything else.
