Call it midlife crisis. For my fifty-fourth birthday, I plunked down ten grand and bought myself this 1951 MG-TD, a car I've been lusting after ever since I sold my Austin Healy Sprite in 1969.
At right is a fellow midlife crisis victim, the late Tom Magliozzi, of NPR's Car Talk, with his then-newly acquired 1952 MG-TD. The sketch is borrowed without permission from the Car Talk website. I think my car is even more beautiful than Click's. (Or is that Clack's?) was. But then, I paid more. British sports car enthusiasts might want to check this link for the best MG-TD website I've seen. |
In 2010, the VW was traded in on this 177 HP, 4-cylinder 2006 Pontiac Solstice... |
...which, in 2014, was traded in on this 250 HP, 3.2 liter 6-cylinder 2000 Porsche Boxster S... |
...which in turn, in 2015, was traded in on this 265 HP, 2.9 liter 6-cylinder 2009 Porsche Cayman. (What kind of sports car will next year bring? Stay tuned!) |
Here's my 2005 Christmas present to myself, one more Jon Lomberg painting (see above). "Core-Set" is another key frame from the original COSMOS television series storyboards. |
This 1939 Funk Model C is featured in Paul's story "The Lady Or The Tiger." Now owned by Peter Talbott and based at the Frazier Lake Airpark, Hollister CA, it was flown by Paul on occasion from San Jose's Reid-Hillview Airport in the 1980s. |
Andrew and Paul tied down Peter Talbott's Funk at the 1987 Watsonville Airshow, where Paul had just ground-looped in front of God and everybody. Read all about this unseemly arrival in "And Those Who Will." |
This beautiful Honda TwinStar CM-185 belongs to the equally gorgeous Dr. Mom, as the license plate will attest. |
Dr. SETI's amateur radio telescope graces his North Central Pennsylvania hilltop. Here Paul's 3.7 meter diameter Paraclipse dish scans the heavens for evidence of extra-terrestrial intelligence. It is Station FN11lh in The SETI League's Project Argus all-sky survey. |
So which is the real Mrs. Dr. SETI, the witch, the angel, or the Dark Elf wizard? Only Paul knows for sure, and he's not telling! |
