learn to drive a manual car
Long ago... 21 months ago

...in a land far far away (North Dakota), I made my first try at driving truck (technically not a car) with a manual transmission. It had to be one of the most bizarre things I have ever done. It worked flawlessly the first time.

I guess I chalked that up to an overactive imagination when I was growing up, dreaming of racing cars. :-P



read The DaVinci Code
Still have not seen the movie... 21 months ago

...but I had to read the book after reading “Angel’s and Demons”. :-)

NIV done 21 months ago

There are cards and such out there, what to read when, on a daily or weekly basis, that will give you a timeline to how long it will take to read the whole thing.
