. . . run by James . . .
. . . HE ANSWERS THE TELEPHONE WHEN IT RINGS
DINNER AND CAVIAR
IN THE SUN OR RAIN
THE GLASS AND MIMOSA TREES
MAKE IT ALL THE SAME
FOUR VINTAGE AUTOS
SUMMER HOUSE
AND A PRIVATE PLANE
SO MUCH TO DESIRE
WOULD BE NICE
BUT YOU WON’T HEAR ME COMPLAIN
I’LL KEEP ON WORKING
WORKING THAT’S HOW MY LIFE HAS GOT TO BE
I’LL KEEP ON WORKING
THAT’S HOW IT MUST BE FOR ME
I’LL KEEP ON WORKING
WORKING UNTIL MY WORK’S ALL THROUGH
TO BE WITH YOU
TO BE WITH YOU
IT’S OFF TO IBIZA NOW
FOR A WEEKEND FLING
TO HAVE THE ABILITY TO DO THESE THINGS
ITALIAN DESIGNER NAMES
IN MY SLEEVES AND CUFFS
IN SPITE OF SUCH EASY MEANS
LIFE CAN BE SO TOUGH
FOUR VINTAGE AUTOS
SUMMER HOUSE
AND A PRIVATE PLANE
SO MUCH TO DESIRE
WOULD BE NICE
BUT YOU WON’T HEAR ME COMPLAIN
I’LL KEEP ON WORKING
WORKING THAT’S HOW MY LIFE HAS GOT TO BE
I’LL KEEP ON WORKING
THAT’S HOW IT MUST BE FOR ME
I’LL KEEP ON WORKING
WORKING UNTIL MY WORK’S ALL THROUGH
TO BE WITH YOU
TO BE WITH YOU
BUT ONE MAN’S TREASURE
IS NOT TO ALL THE SAME
THESE THINGS OF VALUE
LIKE PRIZES IN SOME GAME
DO YOU THINK THE MEASURE OF
ANY MAN SHOULD BE
HOW MUCH AND HOW MANY THINGS
HE HAS MATERIALLY
WHAT PRICE FOR YOUR SANITY
HOW MUCH WILL YOU PAY
WILL THESE THINGS BE HERE AWHILE
WILL THEY FADE AWAY
FOUR VINTAGE AUTOS
SUMMER HOUSE
AND A PRIVATE PLANE
SO MUCH TO DESIRE
WOULD BE NICE
BUT YOU WON’T HEAR ME COMPLAIN
I’LL KEEP ON WORKING
WORKING THAT’S HOW MY LIFE HAS GOT TO BE
I’LL KEEP ON WORKING
THAT’S HOW IT MUST BE FOR ME
I’LL KEEP ON WORKING
WORKING UNTIL MY WORK’S ALL THROUGH
TO BE WITH YOU
TO BE WITH YOU
WORKING

We've tried to tell him. . .
. . . that the car is worth preserving. . . at least FOR NOW!!
For some reason, Russ is not as keen on preserving the automobile which was bestowed upon him upon graduation and his subsequent relocation to Los Angeles. (City of Angels, as that cowboy fella says)
Sure, it's old. 'Bout twelve years now. Sure, it's got lots of miles on it. Around 150,000. But it's a Toyota. Those suckers have been known to last 200 or more thousand miles if maintained.
And we've been encouraging the maintenance. And he's done it. As far as we know. But whenever an oxygen sensor or an electric window goes up he gets discouraged.
Not that we don't understand. After all, he's trying to develop a career in the movie industry. Motion pictures. Film. You know. So work isn't always regular, steady, stabile, conventional, lucrative. . . you get the picture. (Pun intended)
But STILL. It's a car. That runs. That was FREE. Yeah you have to put money into it. But not to purchase it. It's paid off. It's YOURS baby!
Be clear. I am not belittling his point of view. We love the guy. It's just a little frustrating to hear that the next time something other than an oil change is required to keep the car on the road, he may just throw his hands up and say. . .
THAT'S IT. And we're not really sure that's in his best interest at this particular time. That's all.
