I've always loved old cars, but owning one (or more) will
wait until I win the lottery. Not so much for the purchase price, but for the

week one was parked in front of the barber shop I go to. I think it is an 1940s
Cadillac "sedanette". Just what my fedora-wearing self needs.

Should I take these appearances as coincidences, or as
omens?
