<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Great first year over there, Wim! Keep
it up. It sounds like pretty good bucks for blocks driven to me.
I'm sure it'll go up (both miles and money) this year. 65K probably
is kinda tough with the cost of living over there, eh?</font>

<br><font size=3>Since I moved to Hawaii a year ago I've put on 16,750
miles in my car. That's a lot of driving around this little island. About
85% of this is for business purposes. During this time I've brought in
about $65,180. That comes to $4.86 of income per mile driven. I've never
thought about this until today, but I wonder how I compare with some of
you? This is gross income and it includes in home tuning and repairs, and
shop work, like action regulation and repairs. No rebuilding. <br>
