To answer the question everyone seems to be asking, the Volt has a 16kw/h battery pack, which is only charged 80% (when the pack is 'empty' it actually has a 20% charge, this preserves battery life), so a full charge takes 12.8kw/h. Here in Chicago, the average cost for electricity is 14.5 cents per kw/h, so a Volt…

@engineerd misses Uncle Pete: Risky Business. Those of us of the right age remember Tom Cruise when he wasn't nutso, but really remember Rebecca DeMornay (El-opolik anyone?)

@Nurburgringer:

I think there would be a huge reaction if Tim Tebow died.

@NiceNurseRatched: Wacker Drive, Chicago Loop (you can see the El track in the background shot following the required 180).

@Tossed Accordtaco salad over Malibu: I live about 4 blocks away. Bert Weinman Ford is now just a bunch of condos.

@eggwich del fiero: I agree, although I became a fan when he was hanging out in right at Wrigley. Got my commenter legs at Deadspin, and occasionally still post there, so I used this handle.

Watching the Lemons race from France right now. Looks like there are a whole lot of People's Choice cars there. Most all of the cars look like they are worth more than $500, although although the teams have cool matching costumes.

@SeanKHotay:

I've seen #12 used a few times (in England I think). Tend to be used at construction sites where only 1 lane of a 2 lane road is open (there is a pair of them and they in effect serve as flagmen).

@stoke: The only problem with the 5 Series Touring is that you can never find a used one with a 6 Speed (ended up having to buy a sedan).

Rink time?

So he was dead, but he got better?

The vet better check on that 'gator. I'm betting he was suffering from ferric oxide deficiency.
