I’m guessing with modern technology and manufacturing techniques, the Italians needed more time to engineer in some unreliability and expensive maintenance items to their new vehicles. I for one cannot wait to see what they come up with.

This is the best description of what happened. The race was great, no question, but that was two hours out of a weekend of events. COTA showed no imagination in dealing with the issue of shelter for the paying customers for the other 20 hours one could spend at the track. Even just a few large tents to huddle under…

It was a deluge of hurricanic proportions. There were streams of water on track, high winds and lightning. They cleared the track workers and cameramen. It was awful.

Go get some hookers, pick up Lamar Odom from the hospital (he’s fine, he just doesn’t want to get arrested yet for the blow) and have a party inside that beast, for three days.

It exists in my 2006 G35, but only for Navigation and Fuel Consumption, not entertainment. The screen is also about two inches thick, so its starting to look like a prop from an Austin Powers movie.

Integrity. You got it or you don’t. I appreciate your anger Hardigree.

As equally annoying out here in California are the car pool lane concept violators. The concept of the carpool lane is to go as fast as possible with a minimum of two and a maximum of five (I’ll explain that) people in your car. Some people mistakenly believe that its okay to go the same speed as traffic in the other…

Congratulations, $kaycog. This fella will be over soon to spray out your fenders.

My kids love the freeway on-ramp blasts in the 6-MT. And all three fit without any carping. Plus I graduated before I got it, which puts me in rare company apparently.

Was so much more excited when I thought the headline said How to Approach Exotic Pole Dancer.

Wondering if anyone here who suggests calling United in advance has actually ever called United, for anything. I had one United agent putting my kids, who were under 5 at the time, in one row, and my wife and I six or so rows ahead. I asked him if had ever actually been on an airplane, and the answer was no. So unless…

I’ve been driving mine since 2006. Its an Infiniti G35 6 MT. Got the sport suspension, sport “seats” and the high revving V6. Plus I got the two extra doors and the steering wheel over where it belongs, on the ‘Merican side of the car.

And the clock is ticking until high tide turns that monster into a big piece of rusty garbage. I hope they can fix it and take off before that happens because getting that helicopter off the beach any other way is going to be a logistic nightmare.

Who cares, really? The development of the Camry of Germany is uninteresting. The fact that it is sourced from a Chinese website makes me doubt its authenticity. Its probably a Geely knock-off.

How was work honey? Oh fine, had lunch with Barry and then did a direct scrotal incision. If you've seen one patient with his hip bone shoved into his ball sack you've seen 'em all.

DeMuro would call his accountant, calculate the true cost of ownership after deducting from his earnings the cost of the car, which he would make the subject of 3o same(ish) articles in a year to qualify for the write-off before selling the car in a huff of self aggrandizing displeasure and starting the process over. …

QUARANTINE. Unless the HVAC has a Patient Isolation setting.

Isis reminds me of another country that was run by religious fanatics. Its leaders authorized the torture and killing of members of a religious minority that had lived there for generations, by burning them at the stake, and drove those that survived out of their country with little more than what they could carry on…

Good thing you're safe in Quito, because you guys don't have a murder problem down there. And another thing, there is a vast difference between murder and military action, and I'm sure one of these smart guys is going to chime in and explain it. Right guys? Guys?

He should have turned off his targeting computer. I'm pretty sure he was within a few yards of the exhaust port.
