In the winter the dash vents get angled on my hands so I can drive as long as possible w/o wearing gloves
Hard to believe it will ever be cold again on a day like today 
Heat is supposed to break tonight and be only 80 tomorrow then cooler for a few days. I can't find an A/C less than $130 - going to hold off for now on a unit for my office. Best Buy had small units for $99 last year - hoping I can find that again soon

Kenta gave me a ride in his S with a hard top - it had been 3 months since my S went in the garage and I was missing it badly. This was the first time I had been in an S with hard top and windows up.
The car did indeed feel roomy and very quiet. No comparison to top down though - I always prefer convertible mode when possible
I waited 40 years to own a convertible - I want to get my money's worth

Saw a Lotus something parked at a local restaurant last night -- not an Elise unless they have a new more square model out -- I am not up on the models from them. Very rectangular - kind of like the older Lambos. And very very yellow

I almost always do windows up on the highway - I am kind of afraid of debris coming off other cars/trucks and hitting me in the face. I hope the window may offer a little protection... if it stays in tact the way it's supposed to when hit.
