Okay, I wrote a much longer post about this but.. eh, I'll just get to the point.

I ended up racing a kid in town down an empty but icey street. We're going as fast as Drew Carey's career, when after a turn, we both spin out on the street.

We're both just sitting there and I'm kinda catchin my breath and then I whisper, "I am a leaf on the wind... watch how I soar..."

To be honest, I cant leak out my own specs but this guy, Nick, had a Subaru WRX. He's smoke me if my car was stock.

Nice.

Given that you're still alive to post this, I'll assume you did better than you-know-who.

Well, we both spun out at the same time and I stopped in front of him... so, yes, I won haha

We're in Wyoming - we're all winter drivers here, and yes, all-wheel-drive. He was behind me on the left - I was in the middle of the road and he was on the right when we stopped.

Besides, this post is about the linkage to Serenity :P

Sadly kids did that after watching Superman, only they jumped out of tall buildings. Hope your situation was a little better off...

O Serenity, O Serenity! Where art thou Firefly?
Deny thy networks and refuse thy box-office totals;
Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love,
And I'll no longer be a Capulet....
