Subject: My car earned her name tonight

Tonight as I was leaving the base, I noticed my '69er's door was rattling. I opened the door and slammed it closed.

The side mirror fell off.

I relayed this story to a buddy in chat and he said, "lol... that's a millenium falcon moment right there."



















She will be known as The Millenium Falcon from now on.

I'm guessing by the way you've spelled 'millenium' the second time that you are somehow invloved in entomology? Or was it just a mistake? Eitherway, cool name.

The first Miata I owned was appropriately known as 'Phoenix', but aside from that I've never been good at naming cars. They're supposed to tell you their names when they're ready, but mine have always been kinda tight-lipped.

Touche! So it does. Go ahead and color me retarded.

Ah, screw it. We only use it like every thousand years, so we should be able to spell however the hell we want. I'm gonna use 'mehlehneeyum' from now on. With a tilde on the n for good measure.
