"Either way, your seed dies with you."

The atmospheric conditions today were essentially perfect. Warm, but not hot. Sunny, but not unrelentingly. Today was the first true day of Spring. Winter is, at last, over; alas, all good things must come to an end.

Motion
Go! Go! Go! The ability to ambulate is very important to my creative process. The Space Pirates Project revolves around the voyages of the dread pirate starship the Scarlet Narwhal, the heroes of A World On Fire try to stay one step ahead of the totalitarian Commonwealth in the aeroplane/spaceship Aristophanes, Sidekick and The Psychotic Mouseketeer use the Mousemobile to battle George McGovern and his George McGovernmobile, and even in In Search of the Perfect Lesbian I have spent a not insignificant amount of time deciding who drives what kind of car. Pete Foster drives a rusty 1988 Monte Carlo universally known as The Count of Monte Carlo; Scipio Winter drives a 2002 Saturn VUE called The Viewmaster. Margaret Eastman drives a schweet 1985 Fiero, currently called The Falcon, though I'm looking for a better name. To wit:

Opinion Poll
I need an ass-kicking name for Margaret's Fiero. It's red (Fieros should have only come in red), Margaret bought it with her own money at a cost of $750, and she loves that car as much as I love the Mousemobile (and that is exactly as much as Pete loves The Count of Monte Carlo). Margaret attended East Kentwood High School in Kentwood, Michigan; they are the Falcons and thus the Fiero's current, somewhat uninspired name. Go to it, gentle readers! Surprise me.
