First of all, I am still young and cannot decide what I really want to do with my life. As some other people, I am also not sure if I want to work for someone else for the rest of my life making money for them.

OK enough about me, let’s write a little about the idea and the bar. So I was out there on the balcony at my work at night. There is a parking lot and it has a lamp on the wall of the opposite building. It is yellowish and draws light on the wall like this / \. So that is the light that is shining over the entrance and a sign with the name of the bar and it has to be slightly leaning towards one side.

Near the entrance will be two bouncers, with suits and hats. They will be looking like gangsters from 1930s. Similar decorations inside with wooden boxes of whiskey and green tables for some gambling :) Bartender will be a nice guy in his 70ies.. kinda person you can always chat to and he will have a towel on his shoulder :) I can see the whole thing when I imagine it.

The couple of problems that I see: location, people that are going to visit it. Location should be in the center of town probably but that will also attract people that shouldn’t be there. I am not sure if I can make any money with it if I take it that personal. So technically yes, I would love it, but I am not sure if I can actually make a living from this… It would also invlove a huge debt with bank.

Motorcycle. It has been my dream since I was 4 years old or so. I just used to love the smell of burning gas and oil that left in the air as kids were driving their 50cc bicycles with engines size of a hairdryer :)

For quite a while I have been managing to keep this idea somewhere deep down, however, a week or so ago a friend of mine invited me to see the bike he has got for sale. I was hoping to get myself a street-fighter type of bike without all of the plastics on it but still kinda sporty. Now I have to say that that piece of plastics Honda CBR 600 F4i has got me. All I needed was to hear how it sounds and that’s it – now I need to have that thing. Have been reading a lot about bikes, the maximum security you can get while driving them and I want to believe that I am responsible enough to own one now. My second car will be selling ASAP and then I will get this car. Crappy cell phone picture, but this is the one I want to get :)

So here goes my SAAB story…

At first I got my hands on a 1992 SAAB 9000. That’s when I fell in love with those cars.. umm.. airplanes. That one got crashed and I bought a 225 horse power 9000 Aero. The SAAB fan grew bigger and bigger in me and last winter I finally did it – bought a three door 900 turbo. At first I got only pictures from Germany where it had lived his whole life as a second car for a guy who was driving it when the weather was too bad for the 900 convertible so it’s still in a good shape ;) Damn.. driving that thing first for the first time from a remote city at night and in snow – I can still remember going slowly on the highway and thinking how all of the new cars that were passing by have no value whatsoever – really sweet memories. This summer I took the oldie to his homeland – sweden for an international SAAB meeting that was a lot of positive emotions as well. Overall what can I say – if you feel like getting one, go for it! :)
