- What in purple hells is an “original mile?” As in “this clunker has 999,999×1099999k original miles,” a frequently seen phrase for various values of 999,999×1099999 in craigslist ads tho’ minus, alas, the “clunker” revelation, which comes only when you love it, e-mail about it, see it, drive it, and cry, cry, cry. Are there non-original miles? Perhaps there are replica miles, facsimile miles, knock-off miles produced without the authorization of the mile trademark holder? Miles that are really kilometers with bad stitching? Canadian miles? Limited edition numbered reprint miles? Inferior miles produced by Johnny-come-lately competitors? Is an original mile like original sin — does it pass to the descendants of the person who drove it? (And does a non-original mile then evaporate on sale, as I hope will the scorned, reviled, and long-overdue parking tickets attached to my last car?) Non-original miles would like to be original Miles but don’t have the chops? Original miles are first quintet Miles?? |
