Congrats! Yes, I think 7 out of 8 on a ride like that qualifies for rock star.

Some young men who stayed in Claremont near the freeway (HoJo's) said as soon as they got out of their car, a woman came out of the parking lot bushes and asked if they wanted "to dance".
Ah yes, the 909, always teetering on the edge of sanitized suburbia and batsh!t crazy seediness.
