I think I've met the guy with that orange Murcialago...we went to a garage get-together a couple times. Picked up the car out west with his kid and drove it across most of the country. Really nice guy, also has a Jalpa he's restoring (says rebuilding the engine on them is a PITA).

Was just looking for a hardware store, and clicked street view to see what side of the road it was on.

Parked next to a black targa with DC tags at the soccerplex last night. Ended up being a guy on the team we played against. Talked to him a while - of course his name is Dave.

On the topic of soccer, looks like I am going to be a soccer coach for U10 this fall. It is my opinion that this sport is a perfect opportunity for children to chase a ball. I can't imagine the interest for adults.
