Ha! A sports car is something that is noisy, unreliable, must be constantly tinkered with to keep running, leaks oil, is temperamental starting, leaves you stranded on occasion and doesn’t come with an automatic transmission as an option.My wife has one.

My ‘69 Triumph Gt6 was a sports car.

This is worse than anything we have seen in a while.

Of course you expect that

Anything with 2 doors, a 6-speed, and a 50/50 weight distribution is a sports car.

Not that we'll ever know, but I wonder what percentage of people have/had the virus, never went to the hospital, and are just fine?

I've had a few of those, just kill me now, illnesses over the years and didn't go to the ER or anything. They suck, but getting sick sucks.

Me exactly. I was in the beginning stages of planning a trip to Disney world. Those plans have been put on the back burner.

So when am I getting the Miata virus? Before or after the furlough?

you’re getting a Miata. Get over it.
