@Indyfan53: what are you talking about!? This IS terrorism! Just look at it!

@JuanDoe: Well, considering it's been taking what, 5 years to get to this door? I think it'll be a longer special... But not to worry, good old Geraldo is ready for the challenge!

$5 says he'll be at the last door with 20 cameras rolling...

@Martian Yeti: in light of said "evidence" - I'm passing judgment.

@Potatosw✭tter: well - YEAH... I think my lawnmower can outdo a Trabi (even though it's a self propelled push mower)... In any case - I'm all about aesthetics... It's just so cute!!

"Oops - sorry! You got a broom by any chance?"

@Silvrt01: I agree that our society is consumed with lawyers at every corner just waiting for a reason to issue subpoenas versus abroad - hence the over-cautious supplier. But then why does my '94 Sentra with 214,000 miles on the original clutch still get 40+MPG's versus a Ford Escort of the same year (though none…

@Andrew Bakke: Euro spec diesels crash very nicely with 40MPG+ I don't buy the gorilla-chest-pounding argument "MUST GET BIG CAR TO LIVE!" It's been shoved down our collective throats for so long that people actually believe it. Check the safety ratings on the Smart car - surprising results...

Elmer kicked in yo'!

The водка kicked in yo!

@$kaycog: It just has to be done tastefully - a sweet melody of form and comedy.

@Vavon: The potential is unlimited!!!
