Nothing too extremadura for the Navarra. Better to Basque in consistency than try to Castile the spotlight. I hope it does well — Most pickups this size Aragon from the market, Andalusia another one would be a shame. The only question for this truck is "gonna buy ya or galicia?"

you normally turn 14 in 8th grade (I know, I teach them) so he probably was held back a year (to help socially norm him a bit, I'd imagine). Not that uncommon, especially with boys.

Really, Tim? Making fun of an enthusiastic 15 year old for misspelling a word to the spelling bee? All for some extra clicks?

Wait, you can say no?

When Chicago* was eliminated in the first vote, I was annoyed by the reactions of "Hur hur, Obama's home town didn't get the Olympics like he wanted, so by the transitive property he sux LOL!" by certain political elements. In hindsight, the sting has certainly lessened.

dearest good friend:

What? You mean a nation's citizens don't actually WANT to pay for an already rich corporate sports conglomerate's desires for new stadiums, facilities, and equipment from their tax dollars? Jeeze, I hope nobody tells the NFL, NBA, or MLB. They'll be heartbroken

If Qatar tries to bid on the Winter Games, my understanding is that it would be backed by its Free Labour party.

I don't know what it is but doesn't this car look similar to the Mercedes Benz Vision Gran Turismo? More specifically from the front, especially the headlights.

Ah, when Top Gear was a car show....Although some things never change. When given a choice of two Japanese cars, they choose the British one.

So at this point they have progressed into pre-recalls. Bold. Next, they are going to stop developing cars that are still on the drawing board because they theorize them not working.

Clever. You must have been top of your class at BU.

It is still an incomplete analysis.

By 2016, Lancia will consist of just the no-frills 12,650-euro Ypsilon subcompact, said a person familiar with the plan. Sales of the 23,890-euro Delta — the only other model built exclusively for Lancia — will end this year and the Voyager minivan next year, as Chrysler stops re-badging models for the brand, said the…

An uncle of mine *almost* bought one. He had been a Honda guy throughout his entire life. His first car was a first-gen Accord 3-door, which got him through college, and lasted almost 250k miles of moronic adolescent abuse. His next car was another Accord, bought in 1987. When he got a huge promotion, he wanted to…

Ferrari owners will tell you that Ferrari is a special brand and therefor all its products are special too, including the overpriced baseball caps made in China.

"I'm sorry, I can't hear you over the sound of my skyward nose blocking out the sunlight so that I can't see the invoice from my mechanic. Oh and by the way, did I tell you how the Torsen II system is better than all of the Haldex all-wheel-drive systems ever made combined? Oh-oh-oh! Did you know I have an 'ABS Off'…

"Check out my Sterling 825 SL, brah!"

It suits this situation exceptionally well: boo-hoo, multimillionaire Clarkson has to wait a bit before flying (FLYING!) first class to Monaco (via Nice, probably by helicopter to Monaco) to his 5 star hotel, and then be entertained by the most glamorous F1 race of the season, while mingling with the rich and famous.…

Oh Tim, you're so naive. The Cavs, LeBron's former team, got the 1st pick. The Heat, Lebron's current team, got the 26th pick. 1-26? Do I have to spell it out for you? It's the number of letters in the alphabet. Now, let's break down that word, "alphabet." Al, a popular name. Pha, a phonetic spelling of a…
