I’ve seen some trashed cars in that vein, and often wondered, in this age of everyone having iPhone 2000 or whatever, nobody thought to get a pic or video or anything when the vandalism was taking place? They can take pics of plates of food, or their cat, but someone being destructive in public is a ‘meh’?

(whispers) I think that only works on the Pontiac Vibe or the Ford Probe...

I like it, and I like that it’s well optioned, but I don’t have BMW repair money, so while it’s probably an OK price for someone who does, that someone isn’t me. ND

Re: #3-BMW has taken to screwing with my head with that stuff; I always thought when I’d see a 750, that “wow, they must have stayed in school and were able to get the V12!” Nope-BMW just badges it that way, and it’s a V* like so many other cars. Boo.

I don’t disagree, but my first thought was “Oh look-a Prius coupe!”

Hmmph...all I got was a little pack of crackers on my last flight!

I was imagining something like this for some time, but the application I had in mind was all of the walls and places that constantly get graffiti’d; if you could have a coating like this, and someone vandalized it, it would be far cheaper to just have it wiped off instead of repainting (and inevitably getting graffiti…

When asked why she did it, the woman replied...

Good luck with that; as recently as this week, was out at a bar talking with someone, and she mentioned a mutual friend who found out she had developed uterine cancer. Her take?

My mom and I saw Halley’s Comet back in 1986. We went to an observatory, which had a huge line, and by the time we’d inched up to be in place to see it, the line of sight had shifted, and they made us use an alternative telescope to see it. After all that wait, young(er) me thought I’d see some grand spectacle like…

Yeah, there are certain countries that are a hard “no” from me.

“Oh wait-you have some of those delicious cookies? Come right in!”

“...curtains”.

(shrug) It’s Denver; it will literally snow in the morning, and be 75 in the afternoon, with no trace of snow.
