    The world loves wannabes...


    What I'm listening to: Offspring, Pretty Fly (For a White Guy)


    I was out running errands earlier today, when I saw the most pathetic sight. Stopped at an intersection on my way to the bank, I was minding my own business when I heard an obnoxious racket coming from some car or other. I was just about to tune it out and turn up my radio when I realized that said noise was Lenny Kravitz's "Lady." You know, the one he plays on the Gap commercial with Sarah Jessica Parker?
    Well, anyway, I was really surprised. I mean, who blasts Lenny Kravitz? Seriously... rap, or metal, or (down here) even country. But Lenny Kravitz? I strained my head around, trying to figure out who was so proud to be a LK fan- I have to admit, I expected a car full of girls, really.
    Oh, was I mistaken. In the turn lane to my right, proudly ensconced in a cherry red Jeep was the offending party: a middle aged man with a button down shirt, aviator sunglasses, and a small shiny spot in the middle of his head that heralded the beginning of the end of his fight against male pattern baldness.
    I shook my head, vaguely amused and then burst out laughing as he pulled up to take his right, allowing me to look at his vanity license plate:

    Indeed, my Lenny Kravitz fan. Indeed.
