Meet Tiny Tim!
Hey Guys! I was just realizing that I needed to introduce you to someone very important in my life... His name is Tiny Tim, he's 16 years old and he is my constant companion. From the time I arrived home after working at Lake Cowichan til today he has stuck through everything with me. Unfortunatly he's not in the greatest shape and I am often scared for his wellbeing... and sometimes for my own as well when I am with him. This summer he burnt out (following in my footsteps!) and for a while I was scared that he would leave me for good and I would loose this great companion I had... but then he came back to me to only get mugged and violated a few days later, it was so sad but with support of some great friends at camp he has started on the road to recovery though he is far from better and the scars from that encounter are still quite painfully visible. This christmas we will be getting him some help and so these scars should soon no longer be visible and I await that day in great excitement.... if any of you haven't got it yet... Tiny Tim is my truck. He's a 1989 Toyota short extend cab and while he is old and very broken down at the moment he has still gotten me straight across westren Canada a few times and for that I am extremely greatful! He has somewhere around 440 000 km on him (yes, he should very well be dead by now but he keeps on kicking, and that's why we've named him Tiny Tim) and he had drive straight across this country a few time (Myles had him in NY for two years adn I've had him out to the island) and he's starting to show it (Dotto's dad basically laughed at me when I showed up at his house)... as you can see by the pictures. I also got broken into this summer (long but funny story) and so he looks especially bad at the moment with no stereo, no speakers and no middle dash! I would really love to put him on a program like Pimp My Ride or some other show of the sorts but I can't seem to find any way to apply for those shows... plus you probably have to be an American... but if any of you know of a show like that and a way to apply I'd love to hear it. Seriously... my truck is the equivalent of any on those shows! Tim would so qualify! Anyways... That's Tiny Tim, and I thought you should all have the pleasure of getting to know him. Take Care!
