No shiitte!!!

I live across the street from a MARTA station and there is a grocery store in my building. I am within a ten block radius of anything I want and I can take the train to most people's houses and, if not, they are a $10-15 cab ride away. I drive MAYBE once a week. When the lease on my car is up, I am so not getting another one. I may, instead, do flexcar (www.flexcar.com) -- they have five cars within two blocks of my house.
