I've got Asperger's syndrome and I'm not a very good people person so I've always been more comfortable around machinery. Not in a weird way - I don't want to marry my car or anything stupid like that!
I think you have to feel comfortable with your car. You have to go into turn one every lap with confidence. You have to be sure of yourself and your equipment.
I'm still that little girl who lisped and sat in the back of the car and threw vegetables at the back of her head when we drove home from the market. That never goes.
I look away at car crashes and I know people who look away at car crashes because it makes us uncomfortable to watch other people in pain.
I accept the Old Testament as more of an action movie: blood car chases evacuations a lot of special effects seas dividing mass murder adultery. The children of God are running amok wayward. Maybe that's why they're so relatable.
I think a lot of writers male and female write as if their parents were killed in a car accident when they were 2 and they have no one to hold accountable. And unfortunately I don't have that. I have parents who I care about what they think.
America... just a nation of two hundred million used car salesmen with all the money we need to buy guns and no qualms about killing anybody else in the world who tries to make us uncomfortable.
It is an immutable law in business that words are words explanations are explanations promises are promises-but only performance is reality.
I've drunk Amazon's free Diet Coke. Nothing makes more sense to me than a company trying to make bookselling into a profitable business. I'm not anti-Amazon and I'm not pro-publishers either. I'm pro-books.
My business is the enforcement of the tax laws and the integrity of the tax code and making sure that trustees of charitable giving are true trustees.
