Monica Lewinsky?

They probably parked it and couldn't find it again under all the snow, necessitating a new one.

That timing chains are a maintenance-free, lifetime item, and that any chain clatter is "normal". Not true. While technically the chain itself may last the lifetime of the car, none of the other pieces near by, especially the tentioners and whatnot, likely will not. See Audi 4.2L from a C6 A6.

It'll launch with some of the more advanced features missing, that will get added later on. Turn signals will get enabled with iCar 3, and starting with iCar 4, you can have one in black or white, and later on, in gold, but that'll cost more. They will all come with a proprietary fuel filler, that will get switched to

Great. I still have to go to work, and my commute will more than double, driving around the bay. On the plus side, I've got some nice bay front property on Bull Island near Portland.

"Byte my shiny metal bits?"

I was gonna suggest some, but figured that if a new hacker group does form, they would be wise to pick a name from here, so to throw off any investigators looking for who may be behind said hacker group.

I think they forgot to peel off the blue protective plastic...

Yea the Regal GS is actually very good looking, and not just for a Buick. It's the brand image that ruins it. You can't tell anyone you drive a Buick, without qualifying it with some story about this one not being like all the rest.

This thing is big in person. It doesn't look it on the pictures, but it's like a 1.3:1 scale copy of what you think it should look like. And I agree that it's good looking despite it being a 5 year old design at this point.

There's also shoes. Also probably licensed, but still.

So the theory is all about adding extra noise, and not some specific frequency that really annoys deer? If that's all it is then I'm sure it bogus. Deer generally know that there's cars coming, they just don't care.

No I know it's a reference in the movie. Just curious if it's a BS reference or if there's some truth behind it.

Skyscrapers don't really have "tanks" to "blow" do they? Did they? It's more about fire doors and chemical fire retardant stuff nowadays isn't it?

Gotcha. So almost as well as Rhino Repellent Racing Stripes.

The Sailing Regatta events for the 1980 Olympics took place on the Gulf of Finland by Tallinn Estonia. The building for all that is now a Hotel and Spa. The Marina is also still there and in use.

Do these things actually work? Has there been research done that shows this? Or are they like fuel line magnets that only work to channel the money from your wallet to someone else's?

Yea Portland doesn't handle snow well. They close schools at like an inch or two. This winter though has been mostly in the 50's or so. I would love some snow, but I'm also not a native Oregonian and know how to deal with it.

Mmm.. yea.. salt.. I tend to forget that they use that on the roads outside of Oregon. Here it's flat out sand if anything.
