Have you EVER seen Facebook?

Again, you're not reading the full thread. I mentioned this before:

Have you been following? I never said there weren't any 4-door cars present. Many show up very early to avoid the self-appointed police and even then their '4-door' rule seems to be completely arbitrary. I've stood there while dozens of cars were turned away while the redcoats turn people away with the only…

Within the past year or so, judging by the C&C forums. Was definitely in effect when we were there last month.

And this exemplifies the "arbitrary" nature of the so-called "rules" I called out in another comment. I'm not saying that this Alpina should be exempt, but I think the rules should be better defined and less arbitrary. If they want a RARE CAR show, then organize a show with registration. If they want a casual meet for…

Hmm... two doors, older than 2000? Methinks you've got a winner! Be sure it has a well-worn interior in that fantastic Bordello Red!

Nope, mostly Elderly Beer-Bellied Corvette drivers.

Space aside, it should be more 'first come first served' versus some arbitrary declaration of worthiness.

Yep, and any off-the-lot Corvette. Got a Focus ST or Fiesta ST (arguably more 'unique' than the examples above)? Nope, they don't want you.

Indeed it is. They claim it's to protect the 'integrity and spirit' of the event since it's the original. Bunch of pompous, elitist jerks, if you ask me.

And on the other side of extreme, the Irvine Cars and Coffee has a self-appointed police force that won't allow any car with "more than two doors" into the event to ensure only "unique and special" cars are presented. All others are directed to a nearby parking structure and remind that the 'no loitering' policies are…

You sir, win The Internet for today.

No, it's from "The IT Crowd". But both are good.

Corned Beef & Cabbage is fucking delicious.

I'd also argue for the Coney Dog. Which ironically has nothing to do with New York. Natural-casing dog smothered in chili, mustard, and onions.

"California: Winter Optional™"

Winter is back, and it's colder than ever. Coupled with snow, dry air, sickness, and everything else that comes with winter, it's shaping up to be pretty rough. Here are 10 ways to keep yourself sane during this bleak season.

"22nd December 2013: British Airways' new '747 door-to-door' service gets off to a rough start."

It's funny. As much as I loathe the consumer product, their corporate SEP client is still by far the best option in the enterprise, and lightweight enough for everyday PC use as well...

I agree. A cheaper crock pot will be good to start. Once you get more comfortable with cooking, you can always splurge later on (not that there's much skill here, it's pretty foolproof). Good ones used to last a few decades, I know my parent's lasted close to 30 years.
