The golf cart is a dangerous species. Deceptively so. The domesticated ones aren't so bad, but even then they get a wild streak in 'em and off they go, barreling across the land willy-nilly.

I drove one a little while back and it's surprisingly fun to toss around. Even the base engine is decent if you can get one with a stickshift.

The Sonic RS is a bit of a disappointment. I was hoping for a little more—a slightly uprated suspension, a little more power, something like that. Doesn't seem worth waiting for, unless there's details they aren't spilling.

Nothing's changed since BF1942.

That's because Barry Sanders was a god.

I'd be willing to add the Magnum to the list. One of the few Dodges I'd consider owning.

The market is a force far too complex for any one person to understand. My philosophy is "if you don't know how it works, don't mess with it." if only Washington would get the freaking message.

The only sure-fire way to keep your bags from getting damaged or "lost" on the airline is to not bring them.

The stock market is a very difficult thing to get hold of. Don't let anyone tell you different and don't be ashamed that you don't know, either. Most people have no clue how the market works, and I'll admit I don't have a good grasp on it either. Even for the people that do know, the market is still a gamble.

Brooklyn and SF are pretty much wall to wall hipsters. It's kind of scary.

You know what I want? A decent, portable set of speakers I can take to work and plug my MP3 player into for a reasonable price. (By reasonable I mean under $100. I don't have an audiophile budget) They don't have to be battery-powered, but they DO have to be loud due to large degrees of background noise.

You can't force people to buy cars with airbags. You can't force people to buy cars with tire pressure monitoring systems. You can't force people to buy cars with stability control.

I see a big problem with this in any climate that gets snow.

Here's the problem with that. According to everyone else, you're one of those "sheeple".

I used to live in an apartment upstairs from a bunch of frat boys.

I'm convinced the XBL community has come up with at least 300 different ways of implying that someone is homosexual.

Wait. The adage of "it's better to ask forgiveness than permission" does not apply here. You add her now, she's going to think you're a creep. Talk to her after the break. Make your feelings as clear as you feel you can, and then ask her.

In no particular order...

Hearing a 12 year old call me an ass-gobbling sperm vacuum while playing Forza 3. That usually does it.

"The only way any democracy will remain democratic is if corporations are forbidden from financially influencing government. No corporate lobbying, no financial "gifts", no corporate campaign donations, no company-underwritten trips to the Bahamas."
