I have ALWAYS, as long as I can remember, loved driving. I love doing it whenever I can- Travel of any kind, I adore, especially flight, but I feel a particular affinity for driving. Part of the reason I love GTA:SA, it's got so many opportunities to just be... driving.

A huge part of this, of course, is my family- My dad is probably the second greatest driver I have ever known, and the greatest driver I've ever seen working personally. My mother is no slouch- In all my life, I've only ever been in one thing approaching a real accident, and we've never had a car wrecker or anything like that. There was the time when the car died, but that was entirely due to a bizarre glitch in the computer.

Now, during the weekend, just about as long as I've been alive, during my entire life, once a month- minimum, often times more like three times- we've taken the two hundred mile drive from down by New York City to Binghampton, smaller city in upstate New York. As long as I've been alive, I've been a car man. Motorcycles are no exception- My dad's done god only knows how much cycling, and I'd like to follow. It's just so nice, moving, travelling- The destination aint what's important, it's the trip.

Mmmm hmmm.

I've been drivin' all night, my hand's wet on the wheel
There's a voice in my head that drives my heel
It's my baby callin', says I need you here
And it's half past four and I'm shifting gear

When she's lonely and the longing gets too much
She sends a cable comin' in from above
We don't need no phone at all
We've got a thing that's called radar love
We've got a wave in the air, radar love

The radio's playing some forgotten song
Brenda Lee's "Coming on Strong"
The road's got me hypnotized
And I'm speeding into a new sunrise

When I get lonely, and I'm sure I've had enough
She sends her comfort, comin' in from above
Don't need no radio at all
We've got a thing that's called radar love
We’ve got a line in the sky, radar love

No more speed, I'm almost there
Gotta keep cool now, gotta take care
Last car to pass, here I go
And the line of cars drove down real slow

And the radio played that forgotten song
Brenda Lee's "Coming on Strong"
And the newsman sang his same song
One more radar lover's gone

When I'm feeling lonely and I'm sure I've had enough
She sends the comfort coming in from above
Don't need no radio at all
We got a thing that's called radar love
We got a line in the sky
We got a thing that's called radar love
We got a thing that's called radar love
