I remember I had a classmate who was so much into cars and he even subscribed to a couple or so of magazines just so he’d know what was the latest when it comes to his favorite subject. I distinctly remember him showing me an article in a magazine about Corvette accessories and how he’d love to have one of those great machines someday. All I could do then was listen to him since I was fascinated by the way he described each piece and how animated he looked. I guess I was captivated by how he wanted to tell me all about it, and I was a very willing listener.

Eventually, though, he moved on to another school and we lost touch. Last I heard of him was that he had married another classmate and they are now living abroad. I’m sure that he still loves cars and plan to buy his dream car someday. That is, if he still hadn’t bought it!
