Like seriously now... I dont give a shyte who you vote for... Just dont try to tell me Trump is a stand-up man... and if you stop trying to convince me otherwise, I might forget that you are an idiot for following such a criminally insane a$$hole EVs please

Sure. But this aint about Biden. Its about #44 and how HE divided America. Its about how #45 is one sneaky con of a fraud. But some dont even wanna see that. Some...out of the sheer hatred of #44 give a pass to #45 to do as he pleases, because of that raw hate. The latest: Declaring he is a victor of an un-finished election. (Tyrannical and dictorial) Accusing the opposition of voter fraud. Downright criminal no matter if he is right (for the democrats') or he is lying. But the implications OF HIS ACCUSATIONS are deeper than that. One has to question his motives for doing that. He does have legal problems...very serious legal problems when (and if) his presidency is over. That in itswelf is serious talk as he said just last week, that he does NOT intend to go quietly if he loses. And in actual fact, last night, he NEVER once led at ANY time and HE declared himself victor... And now...he wants voting to stop...the counting to stop...he wants top declare himself president, he is suing two states for counting of the votes allegedly for voter fraud, yet no other REPUBLICAN party member is SHARING THAT thought... Don Jr. told a white supremacist group to "have fun" This very same white supremacist group ran a Biden election party bus off the road in Texas... Like HOLE PHOQUE!!!! What is all that? FAKENEWS? DEMOCRATS ARE THE DICTATORS? Here we are...we are still hell bent on shytting on #44, yet what #45 just done JUST the last 24 hours is a gazillion times worse than what #44 has done in 8 years. Yet Im supposed to just turn my attention AWAY from what Trump is doing to the south of me? Maybe Canadian news is lying to me? Im taking this out of context? Because Im a stupid Canadian? Because Trump is honest? Because Trump has NEVER lied? Never frauded? Yeah... The famous Fakenews. You are NOT a proud American... You are NOT boots on the ground. YOU dont live or breathe the problems and dilemmas of EVERY American and when YOU DENY the realities of of your fellow countrymen: You are the opposite. You are a danger to YOUR country. I asked you how YOU are gonna unite with your fellow American and all I giot back is more shyte rhetoric and insults. You hardly know your own rights...by defending and supporting the con you have as #45... You are even tooo stupid to see it... I pity you.

Oh yes I do... Its quite telling how you automatically believe what your "die on the hill" political figure tells you to believe. False accusations without proof. And you blindly follow that lead WITHOUT questioning it. Just repeat it. You follow world politics? How? I dont believe you. Why? JUST the way you answer me. I remember you threw a shytty link about how Canada's borders were open to certain Chinese officials while the border was closed for everybody else and you laughed at my goverment...yada yada yada. You thought that I didnt know that piece of information as if my government lies to me... I never responded to you then, because I didnt deem it worth my time... Im not naive to ultimately believe what my government tells me, but there is a reason why Canada's borders are closed and open for certain peoples. And if one wants top know why that is, one could easily find that information. If you are soooo smart as to why many Chinese officials, doctors, CEOs have entered my country when our borders are closed, please tell me as to why. I already know why.... PS: there is no conspiracy theory. PSS: There are many things BOTH of our governments dont tell us, the public, what is going on. But you and I and everybody else that is NOT in the loop will NEVER know... About my education... Never finished...university. Miised my Bachelor's by 1 year as I dropped out to open up my restaurant. Majored in marketing. Political science as a minor. You might be an excellent electrical engineer...but you are stupid in your very own knowledge of what the phoque is going in your surroundings. Like how you thought that Kaepernick's kneeling was anything else OTHER than young black males getting shot and killed by the police... Anything else is just noise. His contract Him never playing again in the NFL Disrespecting of the flag. YOU missed that. An intelligent man...sees through ALL the propaganda... His kneeling was ALWAYS about young black males betting killed at the hands of the police. Anything else is just feeding into the hidden agendas. And...when #45 defends the wrong message of disrespecting flags. I find it funny that HE was a draft dodger. I find it funny that HE missed the message of young black males getting killed at the hands of the police...yet YOU give me a shyte phoquing link to a supposed black girlfriend he had... I find it funny that he once wanted to buy an NFL team, yet the NFL snubbed him, before he was prez, and then when he became pres, he sooooo tried to undermine the NFL and cause chaos with the Kaapernick thing and he boasted how the NFL's rating are shyte because of it. No hidden agenda there for #45, right? Whethet he is a racist SOB (prolly not, but there is alot of rumors of him being a shyte landlord back in NYC regarding black folk) or a hidden agenda regarding ther NFL and him wanting to exact revenge on the NFL, (and yet, there are rumours of him being a petty SOB too) But again...poor old #45. Never gets respect. He is misunderstood. #fakenews. yada yada yada. Its funny, no other person on the planet has this kind of clout surround them. But you knew thaat, right? Because you follow world news. GTFO with that!!!!

Oh...I do know. Im afraid, I know MORE than you... You are one of those uneducated...

ah... glance over it and a little magical thing happens: more options appear. Got it!

Pretty warm up here as of late. Indian summer I guess. This week-end is gonna be 60F. Its rare to get that warm this late into November. But we'll take it as me thinks this is the last time we hit those temps this year. Sometime in April next year we will be so lucky again...

Yes. Very beautiful. Ausable Chasm are awesome. Lake George is awesome. I always enjoy that drive going to Lake George. I only have one huge regret, is that I have never been to Lake Placid...yet. One cant edit anymore I noticed. OK... you folk are possibly going to witness PLENTY of spelling mistakes and grammatical errors from my posts going forward.

RIP Sir Connery Beautiful cars he will be forever associated with onscreen real life

Well...yeah. I agree. But... The leader of the free world surely profited and often goaded a certain demographic to continue the political charade. And he used that as a tool to try to get himself re-elected tonight.

Not really. He is PROPERLY informed as to why the two could co-exist as how he put it... Na... Ill be gone again. Got better things to do than talk to you... I just miss a couple of folks in here. (not you)

Confused? Get yourself properly informed, you might not be so confused and look like a moron when you post your shyte trolly posts...

When there is false rhetoric, and blind mice follow a corrupt leader...whether at gun point or with brain washing lies, a leader of a country, has ALL the power at his/her disposal to persuade how it goes down... Look at your elections tonight. 1. wearing a mask has become politicized... 2. shut downs for Covid have become politicized... 3. SPORTS...have become politized. This last one is funny to me... Americans NEVER wanted their entertainment to have minds of their own and for them to show their political sways, yet somehow, in this era, sports are very political... Maybe you SHOULD leave your Amish country more often...

There is another reason or two as well. Engines of the past were not reliable. Birds ramming them or high altitude where air was scarce or frozen temps would wreak havoc, etc, it was mandated that trans-Atlantic or trans-Pacific crossings would be safer if the airplanes had 3 or more as safeguards just in case 1 engine or two would fail, the airplane would have the other engines to fly with. Remember, crossing the Pacific and Atlantic, no land available for the plane to land. The Boeing 747 could actually fly and land with 1 engine. It has to land immediately, but one engine has enough thrust to safely land the Queen of the Skies. Its engineered that way. As jet engine tech has evolved, more powerful and more economical engines exist today. And more importantly, more reliable and more fail proof. It is no longer required/mandated for airplanes to fly over the Atlantic and Pacific with a 4 engined airplane . 2 is sufficient as the engines today are almost bullet proof. 1 engine could do the job, if the other fails, but today, its almost impossible for 1 engine failure to happen. 2 engines failing is really really impossible. Therefore, 4 engined airplanes are just unnecessarily guzzling expensive jet fuel for nothing. Im not into bikes, but Ive got some faves. British bike for me is this Triumph. T100 Steve McQueen and the Great Escape introduced me to this bike and the retro version this past decade...

Im only here for one thing thing. To mourn the death of Eddie Van Halen Not my favorite VH tune. But it is the first that I was introduced to. And...the video does showcase his talents on guitar and keyboard. I usually dont cry when celebrities die. I did cry when Robin Williams passed away. Im feeling the urge to cry for Eddie. But Im not gonna. RIP

Although you dont have to defend your decision. Its YOUR mom's money that counts. The thing is...like everything else you say in these forums, its bupkis. There is domestic alternatives. You dont have to buy them. Your money. But then there is the other shytty thing you do, you give your fellow Americans grief for exercising those very same phoquing freedoms YOU want to enjoy. Although @Drew Dowdell wants us to not post things personal, its hard when YOU exercise YOUR freedoms because YOU make it personal. @ykX told me to act my age when I post...Drew erased this posts, because it truly got ridiculous. And here were are 24 hours later, and the same shyt happens again with another poster. Common denominator: @ocnblu I wrote in the now erased post that Drew cleaned up that some of us should consider what we want in these forums. Well...seeing that most of us are in our late 40s, and a good chunk of us are in our 50s...right Blu? Well...Ill take my words and @ykX message to heart. I dont need to act my age, as he says, but I do need to spend my time with more mature folk. Its sad really when my teenaged workers are more mature than you @ocnblu. Ive come to the conclusion that you prefer to troll rather than have real discussions. Ive done this rodeo once before over at Motor Trend forums once upon a time ago. There was this guy called Wings. He posted here. You strangely remind me of him... Well...I wont let the door kick me in the a$$ on the way out. For reals this time.

Well...GM of today versus GM of the 1970s and 1980s and well into the 1990s was a GM that we would all like to forget about. GM today is more on the ball with reliability and quality than those years. Not arguing with you, just trying to set a logical focal point on where we should be bitchin' about. Ive heard the timing chain on that V6 was problematic. On the early versions. I heard that the 1st generation Lambdas has issues with their 3.6s with those folk that didnt do their regularly scheduled maintenance. I havent heard anything about the later 3.6s though. And Ill agree to your point about VV & cylinder shut off being more complicated than anything the L83s and LS1s and 3.8s had, but they did have many sensors and solenoids to go wrong nonetheless. Regardless though, none of those things were problematic. On any engine GM built from the 1970s-2020s. At least none that Im aware of. (optispark maybe?) Gaskets wearing off and causing lots of headaches to GM owners WAS a problem. QUAD 4, Northstar, 3.4 DOHC, 3.4 OHV all had these problems.

false. The 3.8 liter from Buick...the one used prior to the Buick Grand National, the used used IN the Buick Grand National and all other subsequent variants are all part of the MODERN engine. All kinds of computer control metrics and sensors in the engine from the 1970s all the way to its end of life. Crossfire L83 V8, L98, LT5, LT1, LT4, LS1 and so forth...all had computer controlled metrics. I do not know how reliable the Crossfire was, but I do think the L98 was reliable. Some people dreaded the LT1's optispark distributor system, but I do believe its because it was misunderstood and not because it was problematic. The LT1 itself was said to be bulletproof. The LS engines are bulletproof as the saying goes. Therefore...I dont think your assumption here is correct about simpler times... And If Im to understand this whole notion correctly... Arent electric motors even simpler in design than the internal combustion engine? Please educate me...

Molson Canadian commercial Captain Kirk parody of said commercial. Just For Laughs comedy festival...in Montreal.

Dan Aykroyd, Mike Myers, Kiefer Sunderland, JOHN CANDY, MICHAEL J. FOX, Eugene Levy...from Schitt's Creek, Martin Short, LORNE GREENE just to name a few. Leonard Cohen (From Montreal, as is Captain Kirk) was mentioned. That is not photoshopped. That is an actual mural painted in his honour after his death.

From Montreal. Most of the skits are filmed here.

Yeah...the lyrics are kinda sad. How 'bout some Motley Crew CELEBRATING the um...exotic dancer and the pole...

Maybe she should learn to use her tits to her advantage so she could get out of her rut, then. Lord knows us males are a sucker for them.

And in New York too! Did you plan that? My dad always watched CNN so when the 1st plane hit and the newsfeed went to NYC and the news was focused on the "accident", he saw the action unfold from the get go. He woke me up immediately to tell me about it. 15 minutes later we were both discussing this as if it was a terror attack. The perception at CNN before the 2nd plane was confusement and bedazzlement. Shortly there-after the 2nd plane hit... It took me 24 hours to sink in but I tell you...that following day, I was in tears all day. Took me about a week to get back to normal. And then anger set it... My wife, who I hadnt met yet, I met her in late November, was actually in NYC. She got in on the 10th. By train. She has an aunt and uncle living in Astoria. Well, she was gonna be doing sightseeing on the 11th. And yes, the Twin Towers were on the agenda. She stayed in NYC for about a week. She has all kinds of personal photos of NYC during that fateful day and week. She still has her train ticket. Her too, was devastated by this event. We discussed this event maybe on our 3rd date just before XMAS and she showed me her pictures and we both cried. Actually, Im about to cry right about now... Love from Montreal!!!!

The XTS looked like shyte as a limo. The XT5 even worse. Please, do NOT ever post the XT5 as a limo EVER again! The CT6 is passable. There is something amiss with the front end. I think, as far as car based Caddy limos go, these last two might very well be the last of the awesome lookin' Cadillac limos. Then comes the Escalade. I wont post pics of past Escalade limos, but this render of a possible next gen Escalade Limo promises to be EPIC and continue the lineage of awesome Caddy limos.
