I'll tell you something: I just spent the last year getting my 6-year old son through chemotherapy. The strain on him and the family has been catastrophic. Add to that the dismal economic conditions in Silicon Valley, and you've got one bundle of implosive stress. After a while, you just get numb, 'cause all you can do is get through it.

However, when I go out in the garage and fire up my Cobra I get a renewed sense of excitement. When I pull onto the highway in the chill of the morning air, and those side pipes are blaring and the wind is buffeting my leather jacket as I accelerate up the highway, I feel...alive.
