Letter to the Editor,

Long time reader, first time writer. Love the site. Love the tweets.
I write to you with a question, an anecdotal inquiry if you will. I begin in the year 2008, where this guy, strike that, this awesome guy, meets these two hot chicks, we’ll call them Zauren and Zecky for confidentiality. As it turns out, along with their stellar sarcasm and general awesomeness (salute, General Awesomeness), they also partake in a gaggle of scoots. Now let’s say that said writer is both intrigued and secretly wanting a scoot of his own since leaving the mean streets of NYC for sunny California. Now let’s go a step further and say said writer also drops the line ‘Living the Dream’ about nineteen times a day, so obviously he wants in. Long story short, the pages of 2009 grace the calendar, a gem is found on the craigslist, a fixer upper named Zorangina, who along with some love and a home, needs a few parts and some wrenching. That brings me to the point of my rant. Now lets say a cowboy boot wearing kid name Zeter Zabib joins our story, who along with a love of Creed, promises to fix the scoot, much the way Midas turned oranges to gold in the tales of legend. So the writer makes some searches via the “world wide web”, Zauren is forced to talk to a Pikie stripping parts in some slum of Eastern Russia, and Zeter does a lot of hard talk, using some weird language with words like ‘sparkplug’ and ‘ball bearings.’ All the while, Zorangina lies in shambles. All the while, Zorangina is hurting. All the while, Zorangina is ashamed to show her face, abandoned by Zeter in the name of what, education? Where is the dedication to his club? Where is the love he once showed Zorangina? Has he patched over his LTD jacket with Crew, Chess Club or Planeteer? One reader would like to know the answer, needs to know the answer: why has Zeter abandoned Zorangina…

Signed,
Concerned Reader











(this letter in no way expresses the thanks and appreciation to all parties involved including, but not limited to Zauren, Zecky and Zeter, for all they have done in going above and beyond the call of duty to help said writer acquire, fix, work on and bring said scooter back to life)
