Cars and pain

Had a friend over for lunch today. Hadn't seen him since last year, so it was a lot to catch up on.

That he is a fan of cars is an understatement. Today, again, I had to oh and ah over all the pictures he'd recently taken of his own cars. Me, who has never own a car in my life. But it was ok, he only has like ten cars so pretty quickly done. I was more interested to hear about the new speed-boat he just transported to Zürichsee. I even offered to help him clean it when the weather gets better. Of course with an ulterior motive :).

Then we talked about illnesses and he got an in-depth description of my recent root-canal :) and I was informed about the shoulder problems he has and that he has decided not to do a shoulder op, since it would prevent him from driving a car for weeks. For me it was the pain that was the reason to do the op. For him car driving is more important than pain.

I guess we're all different, even though the guy in the car downstairs seems to be a little bit more different than the rest of us.

really? people actually make others look at pictures of their cars?! snore. that's even worse than having to look to holiday photos or kids photos.
