But the “my territory” part is the actual problem, isn’t it.

People suffering from immunosuppression, for example, and those who otherwise can’t be vaccinated (or where the vaccine doesn’t take, because there is no 100% safety).

You conveniently forget those who cannot get vaccinated for mediacal reasons, and depend on herd immunity.

Fairly common with beers. Pilsner Urquell here in Germany is or was produced in Poland (if I remember correctly). When I was in Canada, I saw Löwenbräu made by Labatt.

Saturn Sky RedLine. Looks even more stunning in person. The interior is somewhat lacking, unfortunately, which is a shame. This car was sold as the Opel GT here in Germany, and haptics were a distinct step down from other Opels.

There’s one right in my street (somewhat worse for wear, unfortunately). I find it’s one of those cars, like the BMW E60, that grow on you with time. And they’re even cheaper than I’d thought, here in Germany, you could probably get two decent ones for the budget. I’m seriously tempted by this one:…

The GT/R is more inspired by the Opel GT, but it’s actually based on the Opel Omega B (aka. Cadillac Catera). I haven’t found a good image of the interior on the web (yet), but it’s basically taken from the Omega, albeit with a custom leather job.

Exactly, the first prototype used essentially a widened Opel GT body.

The GT/R is one of my favourite cars of all time – nice to see it’s not completely forgotten. It was based on the Opel Omega (aka. Cadillac Catera). There supposedly also was a one-off with a smallblock V8. Keinath previously made coach builds like the KC5, a beautiful convertible based on the Opel Monza.

Yes, but only for children in countries that don’t count.

I don’t think the problem actually lies in the car prices themselves. What used to be the middle class is, somehow, silently disappearing.

Yes, these are mandatory for HID headlamps here in Germany.

I think Bill Maher was on the right track when he suggested we should introduce Affirmative Action for republicans in showbiz.

I mean, if you think of how terribly even a full-sized vintage car fails ...

A typical example of Opel’s problems under GM: during the last crisis, there was a lot of talk in the media about the Opel factory in Antwerp, Belgium, which was to be closed down. Only there is no Opel factory in Belgium (and to my knowledge, never was). There was, however, a GM factory with a huge Opel logo,…

Thank the LOrd there isn’t a whole second testament or something.

I suggest a miniature nuclear reactor for the trailer, like NASA’s KRUSTY. We are back in the 50’s, after all, aren’t we?

Like being “pro-life” (I think the term anti-choice would be more fitting), but pressure your mistress to get an abortion?

It was mostly the Sovjets who did that, ironically. Not that I’m not grateful to you guys, still.
