Neutral: How Much Would You Spend Fixing Caddy?

If those Bently Butthurtgineers claim that *their* car is 100% original, they’ve been smoking some really bad crack ... I’ve seen similar shapes on dozens of cars over the past couple/few decades; the Bentley design is NOT pure.

"should of not" "had I of" "could of totally" ... I'm not so sure it's the computer being a jackass.

Your comparison of gallon to gallon is correct, what's gone wrong is your internal math ... you're thinking in "gallons per mile" instead of miles per gallon. If a US gallon is smaller, you get fewer miles per gallon, you see?

I get what you're saying, Jaymez, and you single-handedly proved my point. Most people hear "Chevelle" and in their mind's eye they see this:

There were good Chevelles and there were not so good Chevelles. Bear in mind that the car most people see in their imagination when they hear the name "Chevelle" is a totally hot-rodded SS version, and not the eminently more popular (as in total units sold) plain jane base models that were never ever even remotely…

I'd hold any definitive declarations about the '16 model until we see some more pix ... if they changed up the Optima by the same degree that Hyundai changed the Sonata, it could look substantially different in profile and from the rear.

I got divorced in my late 40s. Overweight, out of shape, decent job but starting my own household all over again by myself meant my new domicile looked like a hobo shack for quite a while. Anyways ... I jumped right into online dating (match dot com). I was on there for almost 3 months before I got a date ... and that…

CalTrans seems to be one of the least incompetent state DoTs out there ... sure we bitch and moan about every little thing when they do freeway repairs/upgrades/construction, but I'll be damned if the end results aren't usually excellent, and often completed either under budget or sooner than expected. Sure we have a…

You can't continuously bring charges on one event.

You seem to have a very sketchy understanding of "double jeopardy". It's not the criminal "episode" that matters, it's the specific act which can be called a crime. Carrying a gun and shooting a gun are two separate acts, even if they both occurred during the same "episode", and if either of those acts occurred…

designs that were greenlit before he assumed his current position, liability for which much still rest with the company now know as Old CarCo LLC.

So the only difference between a cappucino and a latte is foam? If that's true, then the world of coffee stirrers is even more pretentious than I thought and Starbux clearly has some 'splainin to do as to why I have to tell them no foam when I order a latte, as per your description my latte apparently shouldn't have…

Cappucino is an Italian coffee drink made from espresso and heated/steamed milk. A "latte" is an American coffee drink made from espresso and heated/steamed milk. If you can ice one, you can ice the other.

(Full Disclosure: My family has had three of them).

Do we have an approximate size for this? I.e., Sprinter, Caravan, or perhaps like that neo-Minibus concept from a few years ago? I for one WANT something stylish in the smaller utility/people-carrier segment, but hate and despise SUVs and the horrifyingly ugly vans being puked out by Ford & Nissan et at.

Do they even import Red Stripe anymore? I know that the original brewing company was bought by one of the big 3 (I think it was MillerCoors but I ain't sure) at some point in the past few years, and now it's brewed stateside, and the label says Jamaican STYLE Lager. It's just not the same.

I just read an article on the People's Court within the last couple weeks, wish I could remember where I read so I could link it for you ... but the gist of what you said is very close the reality except for one key component: the judgement in the TV court shows is in fact a legally binding arbitration. You cannot…

Just to be clear ... I did not mean you'd not still be at the company five years hence ... I meant that (assuming you are working in a for-profit American corporation) whatever the makeup of your core team currently is, it is very unlikely that the exact same people will all be working together more than 18 months…

When I worked for IBM several years ago, it was required that we keep a CV (curriculum vitae, they were clearly "too cool" for just a feckin resume) updated on their system. Now that I look back, it's kinda funny how that was a harbinger of things to come. IBM (don't know for sure that this is still current practice,…
