well, i work at a wendys at one of my jobs. i was working back window and it was about 11pm central time. i was in the lobby being bored and not cleaning *like i should be*. low and behold a car comes in from the hill, so i look to make sure it comes to the window so i know to get food from the grill and myself ready just incase.
to my astonishment, it was a silver, *i assume* 2003, MINI cooper S.
i about fainted.
i was jumping around and screaming to my manager and was like OMG look!!!
when she came up to the window i was literally drooling as the moths tore my shirt apart while i held her cash.

needless to say i have problems about stuff i like alot.


another instance was when my sister had to take me to work *no problems with that now*, and we were going down a mildly popular route near a hospital. mini cooper passes on the other lane in a maroonish red color. looked bad *SADLY*, since it had the checker board roof.


o well, blab on =)

Aloha and welcome to MCO. Have you ever been to a MINI showroom? You might like it. But don't drink any caffeine at work before going there. It seems you get excited sometimes. The MINI is a good car and a nice one at that but you can stay calm when it approaches and by the way there is nothing "wrong" with the checkerboard roof. It is truely multipurpose, as you can play chess on it if you like.

minihume, it's not that i get really excited easily, its just that is the first time i have EVER gotten that close to a mini.

with that said i have yet to go to a showroom for MINI's. i plan to go in a week or 2 to the st. louis MINI dealer to look around with my parents *they arn't buying, just helping me not get lost in stl, hehe*.
