Buy me a Bugatti

But Not Just ANY one

The T57SC Atlantic, Erik Koux replica.

“The steering is positive, and amazingly low effort, partially because of a very large steering wheel. The brakes are smooth and progressive. Handling and roadholding are about what you'd expect from a 1938 car with skinny tires and positively cambered front wheels.”

David E. Davis, Jr.
Automobile Magazine


I believe it costs about $ 1,600,000. Or a little more, because they're rather rare.
But- I'm not picky about the colour. You can surprise me. :)

So make your bids. Contact me, you know the procedure.

Because i must

So my procrastination skills just seem to get better every single time. Well at least I'm getting better at something.

Anyway, i was on wikipedia (it is god, and yes, i do do that a lot.) and i was looking up inane stuff that would never ever benefit me, especially not during these darn exams. I was looking up silly things.. diseases, random places, cartoon characters etc. etc. etc.
Off late I've been considering hermitage and becoming a recluse (I've given up wanting to be a guerrilla. Actually..No- I'm working on a combination of the two- a reclusive guerrilla perhaps.) and so i was looking at what exactly that entails.. wikipedia has information on everything!
And then i came across this.. uh.. for lack of a better word 'disease', maybe even 'phenomenon' called hikikomori. It affects 1.2 million people in japan. Thats one percent of their population, so its not entirely insignificant. I was completely fascinated, so i did some more research. It affects all age groups but most significantly teenagers. They lock themselves up in their rooms for hours/days/even months, retreating from society. The 'pressure-cooker' type of society is the main cause for this- the education system has been severely criticised, and so have ambitious parents. The symptoms include an odd sleep pattern- staying up to work late at night and going to sleep early morning, listening to music, surfing the internet.
I am slightly worried now.

Shock. And trauma?

 I can't believe that michel gondry would direct a film with jack black in it.
I suppose i should 
watch it before i 
decide, 
but it sounds pretty 
daft to me. Still in shock. Yes. Shock, and i do not exaggerate.
