First time; clueless how to operate controls not seeing path, proceeding in dark.
Just stumbled upon her. She looked interesting, but different from any I had seen before. I decided to open the door and get it. After some signing on and busting the near illegible code, I am in the driver seat.

I look at the instrument panel to try and figure how to crank her up and see an "E". But, I somehow don't think it means "Empty". So I keep poking around, checking the knobs and levers to see if I can get it cranked up. At least I remember the key, otherwise I would not have gotten in the door.

Now I am crusing along but have no clue where I am going ... literally or figuratively. So I figure I'll make this test drive a short run and so I turn to the side of the path which I have taken throught this forrest and park her.

She was ok for a quick joy ride. Now lets see if the Thought Police come arrest me. For all I know I was driving down the wrong side of the road, since i've never been here before. Or maybe that was for snowmobiles only here in this tropical forest. And parked, it ends and sputters to an illogical end. Take that!

PS .. funny, the very next section says if confused by settings, just dive in. I guess I was operating a submarine, as I did not dive in, i drove in. Says I can figure out the knobs and gadets later. Guess I am not going to get arrested for my wild, blind ride through the frozen tropical forrest. Cool, dude. (is tone of character working now, LOL).

That's cool, I must be in a foreign land; says "Enter your below" - looking for an object of the very "enter" - wondering now if I strayed into the erotic writing room - I considered making that my first stop!

This is a viginal launching. I am still dumbfounded by all the knobs and controls and plan to just "dive in" or "drive through" and try to grab the fries and not run over anybody on the way out of here. We'll see how it works and maybe I will come back later and put something sensible here ... when I know its purpose clearly. Have fun.
