CHECK THIS OUT BOYS! by (me!) sandra, tvgp




hot car, huh...


as i was driving down first street toward studio 7, passing the crowd at concert in the park, i thought

oh.. friday night is not a good night for an art event -half of pleasanton is at concert in the park

then i rounded the corner on angela to find parking, and spotted another crowd on the corner of main & e. angela

a whole bunch of people... looking at what?

and as i walked near, thought

oh.. too bad, isn't it.. some hot-shot is stealing the show

write outside studio 7 where a great meet the artist event is going on.


pleasanton doesn't know what they're missing..
and between concert in the park & this hot shot on the corner.. i half expected studio 7 to be empty.

imagined the artist -frogman- traveling some far distance to guest appear & autograph art,

for only 2 or 3 people.


so it was with a little upset that i only half glanced at the hot car everyone was making such a fuss over, while i made my way into studio 7 to see what's really important in this world:

art.


artists.


only to learn a few seconds later that the hot shot car & hot shot driver stealing all the attention away from frogman & the event at studio 7

was frogman.


-oh-


well.


that changes everything, now doesn't it.

turns out frogman designed the car...

owns the car.

and i've mentioned how pleasanton is like, the dog capital of california, but it is also quite a magnet for show cars & show car enthusiasts

just about any given day of the week, but especially during car events

you can see some gorgeous, expensive, custom, classic automobile

and a group of people, -primarily but not exclusively male

admiring that fine piece of transportation from every angle

the way a mad~scientist might admire a naked beauty.


how was this created? what can it do? how much does it cost? i want one.








.... i shall set out to create my very own....

The keys turn
The engine purrs
and the road
flies away behind ya
0 to 1000

And now you want a hot rod too?

Who can blame you.

Hope all has been well, doing quite a bit better myself.

Hope to see you around!

Darn it! I forgot to see original post date for this story before I re-released/re-published it. Think it shows at the bottom if you print it out... But this iPad is not connected to a printer... In any case... I laugh re-reading it... Because isn't it all art... In one form or another... The musicians/the concert in the park... The hot-mobile...

But I remember having such an attitude/so irritated the long lines/crowds weren't for "the real art...". Shame on me... But pretty funny

We're spoiled here in Pleasanton... Very blessed.
