SUBJECT: I FOUND YOUR NOTEBOOK ON THE FREEWAY
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Nick,
The other day I was driving up the 405 freeway in a miserable state of traffic. I was thinking about all the things I have yet to accomplish in life. How I might accomplish them, how I might arrive at them and to what parts of the world they might affford my attendance. My car was inching along at aproximatly 12 miles an hour when I saw something shoot out from under a passing car and slam up against the near by center divider. quickly my eye recognized it as a laptop computer. with no hesitation I pulled into the left side shoulder and turnned off my car. I opened my door and stepped into a hurricane of wind and sound comming from the opposit side of the freeway which was roaring along like a procession of screaming buffalo. I walked against my side of traffic some fifty feet to find a damaged but life like DELL INSPIERON 8200. The title was Barely ledgable through a million different scrapes gashes created by its journey down the 405 playing the roll of a hockey puck. When I first saw it skidding in front of me I conclude it was being shot out from under a tire like a peice of ice being squeezed too tightly between two fingers.
I reached down and picked the thing up. The cd drive was dangling from it like an accidental peice of spaggetti stuck to the bottom of an eligant dinner plate. Except this plate was splintered at every cornner, bent like a half moon, and covered with a film of black grime and and dust.
With the bent top half standing open Just an inch I could barely make out what I can only explain as a miracle. THE THING WAS STILL ON!! "
