    must. The smell is so strong I feel like I am back in my high school 's chemistry lab. I can hear the engine buzzing like a swarm of angry wasps. The brakes squeal with the slightest touch. In the background as soft as a whisper the radio plays songs I do not recognize. Almost as if the words are a foreign language. I can feel the jolting of the road.
