Green Knight
Last updated: June / 14 / 2000

You have to work extra hard for your first vehicle. As everyone knows, you need a job to get a car and a car to get a job... Below is the first vehicle I could call my own. My grandparents buildings had many coats of paint before I earned this Chevy Truck.

My first vehicle consumed large quantities of gas,
so I sold it eventually and obtained a more...
economical sports car... The Green Knight.

The "Green Knight" is called upon from Arthurian Legend. The tale of a Green Knight who challenges the Knights of the Round Table to play the Beheading Game. Essentially, the Green Knight asked one challenger to take his head with his own enchanted axe. If the he lived, the Green Knight would get a swing at the challenger. Sir Gawain took up the axe and struck the Green Knight's head clean, but the Green Knight got up and reaching to place his head properly, told Sir Gawain that he must meet at the Green Chapel in one year's time... but you must read the ending for yourself.

From the name and legend of the "Green Knight," you may gather that my sports car has been in an accident or two. With a little work it'll be as good as new. It's a neat little hobby... tinkering with the beast.

I bought a couple more Fiats after the one pictured above. My last purchase was the silver Subaru hinted at in the Fiat photo. On that subject, rust is evil... EVIL I tell you!
