“throw gearhead terms at me and that’s enough to get me to sign off so that I can get out of listening.”

ha! I ride bicycles with the owner of a small ad agency...one day on this terrible 40 minute climb I started talking platforms at him vis a vis the Escalade/Avalanche/Suburban.

I know. what possible good would it do the president if we were all afraid of being bombed by the North Koreans?

I think shape is important.

I love long, straight, unbroken lines from the headlights to the tail lights.

I said when it happened, and I’ll say it again now.

This was ordered.

It was purposely down to sow panic, fear and chaos.

Damn, a whole 500 years after the pornocracy.

Major League Baseball is recording us...

haha! Holy swingarm! I never knew.

Oh yeah.

I took my driving test in in the Mercury version of this car. Parallel parking is my party trick.

It’s easy to tell if the difference in my wife. Coughing, sore throat, achy, sneezing, but still cooking, taking care of the kids(dogs at our house), going out to get groceries, that’s a cold.

Complaining about all the stuff she’s not getting done but too achy to move? That’s the flu.

Me, I’m a bit tougher. When I catch…

Ha Excellent! We had a nice young couple for neighbors for a year or two. In the finish grad school, buy a house, get married, have kid(singluar) by a station wagon stage of their life. They bought a Jetta.

It was tdi, that was the thing then, but it sat just right (clearly had suspension work) it had factory but…

Have you seen the Fiat Multipla? It’s also weird/awesome.

Is the protagonist Abe Sapien from Hellboy?

“I haven’t heard of a home bubble”

Neither had the professionals (that they would admit) in the mid-aughts. My best man’s ex is an estate agent (probably broker by now) me in 06 ... hey, don’t you think that the stratospheric rise in house prices indicate that they’re over valued? I think a crash is coming...

Oh no, she…

My first car was a 1976 Scirocco, looked just like that. Of course before I got her she had seen 10 hard winters in Michigan, and a sculptor with more passion than skill in bodywork had seen to her with a tub of bondo and a rattle can.

But it was awesome.

“Our own people die every day abroad, fighting to protect our freedom,”

hahahahahahhahahahahahahaahaha, good one.

what “Freedom” are you talking about? We live in a police state.

The American soldiers dying overseas are empire building. No one has legitimately threatened “teh freedumz” since the 40's.

Edit: Sorry Fonsi,…

haha, or in the trunk...remember that from a few years back? “The kids wanted to ride in the trunk, so I let them” Seems reasonable to me.  

haha exactly.

Show of hands of people who get their cats to sit still for stuff they don’t want to do.
