The above entry inspired by Tom V., a reader from Connecticut, who has reminded me not to neglect my roots, lest online readers get the mistaken impression that I'm only a pho-eating bookworm. Disclaimer - since passing through my 20's, and becoming a member of the American Society of Safety Engineers, I no longer participate in or condone any illegal street racing, unless done on a closed course with professional drivers, or at least informal consent of the local police.
