So my posts have been far and few between…I’ve been working on a personal project that has taken priority. I hope to get back to this with a little more regularity.

this thing blows those talking digital cards…ok so you can’t customize the message…but you can’t say this about the digital versions:

“Put da needle on da record…”

Personalization

This one is for all Vespa lovers. I wonder if all these lights work? I barely get any light out of my one headlamp on my old P200. This must have 20 batteries, somewhere!

On a serious note, does personalization equal passion equal the need to express oneself? Passion coming from the “end user” that is. (i hate that word, user, its not like we’re not talking drug users here) Anyhow, think about it, when someone really loves something inanimate, like a car, or a laptop or a vespa, that’s when they take the object to the next level by making it more their own, by customization. You don’t see too many people customizing their Camry’s do you, just not inspiring in the first place. That said, seems like passion begets passion.
