I had this great idea.

Richard drives a Honda CRX (or CRV, I forget which). It is blue. It is almost the right shade to be Jackrabbit Blue.

So, I mentioned to Richard that we should get some bright yellow paint (you know, the kind that washes off) and write “GO JACKRABBITS” on each side of his car.

I think Richard was a little dumbfounded. He looked at me like I had gone stark-raving mad. He had this expression on his face that screamed, “Mac, this is your most ludicrous ideas of all time!” Those of you who know me are well aware that this is not my worst idea ever. Not even close. It doesn’t even rank in the top ten for 2009.

But still, it died an untimely death. There will be no Jackrabbitmobile in Hood River this season. It’s okay. We would have had to wash the car anyway.
