I was doing my usual 30 minutes on the Stairmaster last night at Heart Healthy, listening to my headphones and watching the TV screen, and realizing that if I wasn't impatient with commercials before TiVo, I certainly am now. I was switching channels whenever there was a commercial break and found that most of the stations I was going to took their commercial breaks at the same time.

So that left me with trying to fill up my mind with something other than the sweat and toil and physical exertion that I know comes with my daily workout. What to do???

And then it hit me. When I use the stairmaster at Heart Healthy, the view in front of me through the expansive windows is of the LBJ freeway [that's the 635 loop (now the inner loop, thanks to the Pres. George Bush freeway {as opposed to the Pres. George W. Bush freeway} that is at least looping the north side of town)].

It was rush hour and the traffic was moving remarkably well. So I started a game with myself. Which color Beetle would be the most popular color that I'd see on LBJ at rush hour on a Thursday in Dallas for the next 30 minutes?

I was surprised at what I saw! First came the Blue one (like mine), then the Pea Green one (which was a color I considered before I settled on the Blue one), then another Blue, then a Black one (with that little handle dealy that covers the back so it looks like you could pick it up by it's bootstraps!), then another Blue one, then a Silver one, then another Blue one, then another Blue one, then another Blue one!

I was shocked. In the course of about 30 minutes, I saw no White ones (sorry, Luke), no Red ones, no Yellow ones, no Orange ones, no custom color ones (but I did see a 60s model in a groovy shade of pale)!!

How can this be?

I guess this isn't a very scientific study, after only one evening of Beetle color watching, but I'll be back this evening for another 30 minutes!

Aaaahhhh, life is good!!
