I don’t disagree with you on that general idea and life is always more valuable than property, but with the available information doesn’t calling her fight or flight instincts utterly stupid seems a bit baseless? Who says she would have kept her life if she had not fought? Maybe he kills her there, maybe he takes her…

Well no one is trying to say it would have played out differently other than the headline.

Maybe the unexpected fight just to steal it contributed to his inability to make a successful escape? Besides, I don’t think anyone was trying to say it would have ended differently, it’s just awesome that the carjacker thought he picked a hapless victim yet couldn’t have been more wrong.

Wow, nothing to see here keep moving....it is always good to be reminded how hard I worked for my Doctorate of Reading Comprehension. I blame it on being mesmerized by the color. Apologies

Dude and/or Maam, you are on a roll today.

Yup that deep dark blue totally does it for me. The GT350 I drive in my dreams will wear that color.

I live in Mt Airy, the world gets smaller and smaller...

Thanks for the info! Interesting, I should have guessed or taken the extra 5 minutes out of the work I’m already not doing and checked into it myself. As for the Z8 vs Karma topic, I think you used the most correct word possible. Awkward.

Maybe it is just me, but this and the Fisker Karma sure seem to share some style elements in their front ends. The Karma almost looks like either: a.) a Z8 with a self satisfied (read: shit eating) grin, or b.) a mustachioed person with weird, geometric dimples and an overbite. Unlike the Fisker though, to me the Z8…

Uh...you might wanna duck.

I thought Patriot Games did a good job of condensing and sacrificing things to fit the movie format, but I do tend to agree with you that some tend to stray a bit.

Thanks, it has been a long time since I saw it. Damn I miss Tom Clancy.

Haha it’s been a long time since I watched that. I think I have read the book half a dozen times though, is that grounds for man card reinstatement?

Forgive my ignorance, but what is that from?

From this random internet jackoff, that was fantastic work Andrew. Very “easy”, like you have done this sort of thing before (maybe you have?). Aside from informing the unwashed masses, hopefully a light bulb or two went off and we shall have some enthusiastic new commentors. Now you can sit back, take off the TV…

Oh yeah, I totally forgot about that! Great reference, and agreed on Pamela Anderson....that is how I shall remember both her and the truck.

As a 10ish year old boy, I was so utterly in love with the flaresided Ford Ranger Splash that you would think I’d grow up to marry it, or at least own one. That said, I am not as keen to own such a vehicle today.

That last line was a riot, I never knew I had a long lost twin brother. The Midtown series was awesome, and I am guessing you got Elite Force with your winnings? Yeah I’ll be sure to invite you to our next holiday...

Yea I wish I hadn’t gotten my car back. The thief averaged 14 mpg in my v6 Accord, ruined the tranny, the inside was utterly filthy, and there were scratches down the side from the cops gun belts, all from only 12 hours of joyriding. After paying a couple hundred dollars to get it out of impound in east Baltimore, I…

Yes but to be fair, the article said they are treating it as arson. It never said the limo company is thought to be innocent. Still though, absolutely agree.
