Good call

Exactly...ask every parent of a Down's Syndrome child if they would like to cure them and most of them would act with a lot of indignation. Everybody has their gifts. Look at Rain Man--Raymond might be "flawed" in many ways but he can memorize large amounts of data.

Dude, I looked, but it looks like the Mary Kay ones are actually silver with pink Mary Kay lettering on the side and a black Mary Kay badge. This was the most pink I could find.

Seriously...keep this guy talking...I haven't had this much fun since evok reinterpreted the No Child Left Behind Act!!

You are totally contradicting yourself from the last page. You DO have to accept the existence of homosexuality. It's there! Look, I used to be as homophobic as you, that is until several of my close friends "came out" and blindsided me by telling me I was the last of our group to know because they were afraid of how I would react. Now, obviously you were never good friends with someone BEFORE you knew they were gay. In my opinion? You're missing out...

So, you're saying that because of the procreation aspect of heterosexuality, you feel you know more about the causes of being gay than a homosexual? You are quite the presumptuous one, aren't ya? :lol:

Here's my opinion on the whole thing: I have no problem with gay people. I do not care who sleeps with whom. It is not my business. Now, as for the whole "gay-acting" thing, some people, for whatever reason, feel the need to "fit a stereotype." Personally, I do not understand this. I think it is very affected and annoying for someone who realizes he is gay to suddenly adopt a lisp. I think it is very affected to suddenly start saying "queeny" things like "oh NO you DON'T, girlfriend!" when such speech patterns were never used before. Now, I'm a fan of irony, but when someone suddenly decides to change their entire persona to fit a stereotype of their sexuality, I find it irritating and lose respect for them. Maybe that's just me, but whatever. FWIW--I find the "hyper-feminine" female to be somewhat annoying too. Seriously...just because you are a girl doesn't mean you have to act like a ditz. That said, it's pretty obvious when it's natural versus when it is affected so most of my annoyance is directed at the people being fake about it. Seriously...just be yourself, not who you think people think you should be :rolleyes:

so basically its turbie, LA, and me?

Emphasis added by me. Sixty, you should be friends with razor, you have lots in common, what with being children who were left behind!

interior is nice, exterior needs a little work. overall: B-

OC just PMed me and says he can no longer make it due to a work conflict. I would be down enough with breakfast I guess, depending of course how awake I am. I am really hesitant to make any firm plans in that regard in case I sleep through my alarm or --WORSE-- wake up, shut off the alarm...and fall back asleep.

See, I like both about the same...

...and apparently you didn't!

I wouldn't do it.

I still like it, and I really don't get what the big deal is about the bumper. It goes with the design IMO.

When I visited LMU back in the day, I remember the jet engines overhead every 5 minutes. Drove me nuts.

Welcome back!

IE crashes far more often for me and is far less stable. The only time I have had issues was on myspace with a lot of imbedded media files...but now that I have 1.5 that problem has gone away.

Dude, this $h! is annoying. Cut it out.

...and IE 7 will also have Microsoft's terrible security and slow-to-load pages. Also, IE displays grahpics really poorly on my laptop, while firefox is fine!

Hmmm...reminds me of the Euro Previa

I agree 100%. This interior is $h!.

Yes, cycle on/off 4weeks/2weeks.

I give it about six months. Honestly, there is a time and a place, and this isn't the place. This is a car site, and while I applaud how accepting and open people are on here, my patience is getting tested when every thread in the lounge contains a THIS THREAD IS GAY! picture... Please, we are not a VW/Subaru forum :AH-HA_wink:

The only thing I drink regularly is the diet minute maid lemonade...5 cal/serving because that's the "healthiest" they have at subway in the drinks without paying for bottled water. My question is: why caffeine? That stuff raises metabolism...???
