@ccap41 Ironic I talk about racism and sexism and you question why black females and Cadillacs... There is nothing nefarious about black females and Cadillacs that I decided to post on about. Unless that is what you see. Which would be on YOU. Its just a silly post. Nothing more nothing less. Black females are human. Just like Taylor Swift and Salma Hayek that I posted half naked in a Greek motif post. The answer you are looking for is not that hard. Its in the music. And I chose the most respectful of pics of beautiful black ladies that I have never really posted on about. I would think you would question Taylor Swift and Salma Hayek as they seemingly have NOTHING to do with what else was posted. You pin pointed black women... Why was that? Now tell us why THAT would intrigue you?

Those days are looong gone. No longer a teenager dreaming about the west coast. California. I did think about joining the US Airforce right out of high school. When I was ashamed of being a Quebecois. When English Canada shunned Quebec. When Canadian Pride amongst ourselves was supposed to be hush hush unless you were of course from Quebec. Then you couldnt even speak your mind about anything. Including in the USofA, Quebecois were laughed at. If you were from Quebec, you were an outsider. A freak. The only thing that Canada and Quebec were aligned in was that if you were an Anglo or Frenchie, you were OK. Oh yeah...immigrants were tolerated and over all accepted, but there was a hidden negativity about being non-Anglo, non-Franco. And the Anglos on top of all that felt superior to the Frenchies as well... But in that time...Canada grew from their problems. Lots of painful discussions were had and are still being held regarding racism and sexism and Canadian Pride and Indigenous peoples and the respect they deserve in their OWN land that was taken away from them. It looks like YOU stupid Americans are still trying to figure this out. With BLATANT racism abound... Now...why would I leave MY birth country to which it seems we are figuring it out peacefully to come and live in yours with all the bullshyte that is happening? Answer is I wont want to. Canada is my country. Greece is where my ancestors come from and my second home. The USofA is where I wouldnt even take a piss and a shyte...

Hidden message answer/post to satisfy your question. translation: For my own personal pleasure...

Holy sht, dude. What happened to you? This is a discussion forum. You don't have to elaborate at all. I was just asking a question for discussion. Nothing has happened to me. Same ole. Just a tad more cynical. But knowing you, you always have an angle as to how you want the conversation to go. I never said anything was hidden. I was just asking a question. Again, you don't have to answer. Like I said. You found a (non-existent) angle you want to exploit. Ill explain that comment further down. Sorry for asking you a question about your post. You are not sorry. I touched a nerve somewhere either with the No Diggity/Cadillac EV post or the last post I made to you. I never said anything was hidden. You have pictures of humans mixed in with pictures of Cadillacs. Not the first time Ive had humans posted in these beautiful car threads. Maybe my 3rd or 4rth the past couple of years. Ive also had private jets, beers, brandys, watches, places on earth... Even phoquing donkeys for Christ's sake. Birds... Next will be fish. I promise you that. If you're going to be a d!ckhead, this is a "Beautiful *Cars* appreciation" thread, not humans. Create a beautiful people thread then. Like I said...I touched a nerve somewhere. Tell us what you are REALLY thinking about. I am not the penis head here. You are. By me posting pics of donkeys and birds and beers in this thread, do I really need to create a sexy donkeys thread and a beautiful bottle of beer thread too just to appease your curiosity? Its just a silly post like any other in this thread that I have done. Enjoy it. Or do not. I do not care. So there is a link between the images then? What's the link? What's the vibe? Its literally right there. Nobody needs a doctorate degree from Oxford Uni to figure it out. And whatever you think it might be, then that is what YOU took from it. I got pictures of a half naked Taylor Swift and Salma Hayek. You are not inquisitive about that. Im surprised nobody asked me WTF does a half naked Taylor Swift and Salma Hayek have to do with Greece and its antiquity...

Looks like Buick's front end design language. Mainly the headlight design language but also the front end coming to some sort of peak making it seem that Acura is trying to mimic Buick. Granted that Acura's front end comes to an end in form of a peak while Buick is rounded, but still. Weird also that Honda has dropped GM with their EV partnership... Honda...get your own face, will ya???!!! Its not even appealing. Not on Buick, not on Acura either...

100% percent!!! I wrote it as sleepy Joe in sarcasm. I know the maga folk and some from the left like to call him that but I wanted to be known that he was wide awake and AWARE of the Chinese threat. He was also tough when needed to force an ally, Canada, to adopt the same tariffs. Trudeau was asleep at the wheel for that one and Biden forced him to comply with US demands. And I have no problems with that. There are times when our respective political leaders NEED to force upon one another certain demands. And THAT kind of relationship is a healthy one when hard decisions like that will benefit BOTH countries. Weapons of mass destruction and Jean Chretien, then Canada's Prime Minister, did not buy what George Dubya and the US military complex was selling and did not support the Persian Gulf War 2.0. And Canada initially did not join that coalition. And Canada was outcasted by many Western nations. But that allowed Canada to have its own voice different than the US. That made the world respect Canada and in the long term, the world saw that Canada's intelligence is far greater than just being a lap dog for the US. Also, that signaled to the US that Canada is not a yes man to US politics and in later years, other US political leaders respect Canadas decisions making for a stronger bond between our 2 nations. Obama had a GREAT relationship with Canada. I would also say Biden too.

Even BEFORE Trump became #47, Biden hit China with 100% tariffs on Chinese EVs because even sleepy Joe KNEW that China would just flood the US market with ACTUAL AFFORDABLE EVs and that would sink GM, Ford and Stellantis in the US. Sleepy Joe even forced Canada (Trudeau) to do the same. Yes...Sleepy Joe FORCED Trudeau as our Canadian government was reluctant to do so at first. So Canada also put 100% tariffs on Chinese EVs. But now, China upped their tariffs on Canadian canola oils and beef and stated that its because of our own tariffs on their EVs... Our government NOW knows that it be best to leave those tariffs because Chinese EVs WILL flood the Canadian market but that will also close down GM, Ford and Chrysler factories IN Canada. So our beef and canola oil industry may have to suffer a little in the Chinese market... When Ford and GM want to peddle high priced EVs... When Stellantis wants to peddle Hemi powered 15 year old Durangos to stay afloat... I understand what @Drew Dowdell told me about the Durango being a place holder. Still does NOT change the fact that once again, the US auto industry was caught with their pants down not having the right product for an ever changing industry. Although they did react ON time this time around, they STILL fumbled it... Tesla lead the god damned way, but their leader failed them. GM realized it right on time, made all the right decisions on time, but mis and dis information phoqued a nation with an ever changing world...

Waaaaaay tooooooo late for that. Since before Covid hit, in these very forums, you and I David fought tooth and nail with some respected posters (forget about the trolly OCNBLU) that the world needs to go EV and he didnt think that would EVER happen in our lifetime even. THAT would be his mindset, and he was VERY VERY intelligent, but most importantly, THAT was and STILL IS the mindset of America... The US. Not Canada OR Mexico. Keep 'em stupid is the mantra. And yes, even Balthazar was bamboozled... I kept on STRESSING that the WORLD wants this change. But uneducated people and American exceptionalism STILL rules. The irony is that people in the US STILL think battery production and EVs pollute MORE than gasoline and the oil industry... Ironically, people in the US STILL think that the US is some dominating force at the world stage... Waaaaaay toooooooo late as GM and Ford are way way way behind in technology. Tesla too. Waaaaaaay tooooooo phoquing late as the US STILL has not got the EV infrastructure to where its gotta be as compared to the rest of the world and most importantly, the citizens of the US are not only NOT ready mentally for an EV change, still tooo much mis and dis information rolling around regarding EVs, but now, economically, American people cant even afford grocery needs, housing needs, let alone the purchase of a new car whether ICE or EV... And...the domestic car manufacturers are being forced to be ONLY a US market producers and sellers.

Car safety has come a long way. The philosophies regarding which engineering forces need to be examined and controlled for better passenger safety has vastly improved. Let us all be grateful that that we as a society along with the automobile industry listened to the guidance of what government safety boards were suggesting... In the video it seems, weight and heft seem to be the only factor. But Im not so sure passengers in the full sized sedans would be fairing that much better as opposed to the passengers of the compact cars. And absolutely nothing was mentioned of what the results would be when two full sized sedans collided headed on. Now, I love me some classic full sized sedans and coupes from the era of that video, but I sure do realize that I, as a passenger, is part OF the crumple zone in those cars. My safety cage, ie my skull and my ribs, would do phoque all in absorbing all that kinetic energy. We may bitch and whine about high belt lines and thick A pillars, but they sure do the trick in being part of an intricate plan of absorbing impacts. I do find it funny though, that football was the inspiration of passenger car safety in those primitive times.

I didnt realize that Seattle also has male cheerleaders. Good stuff!!! That must make MAGA frothing at the mouth. About Corvette. Its sucks. But GM engineers wanted an exotic feeling Vette...now they got one. Forget about mid-engined craziness and flat plane crank lunacy...you aint an exotic if you aint burnin' up baby!!!

Football season is on its way. NFL. Aside from all the Elbows Up talk I usually do Im a hypocrite with this as I refuse to do the CFL. I still want to cheer for that certain NFL team. I wont mention the team as Elbows Up also takes precedence. Confusing it is. But...I like me some cheerleaders no matter what country and team they represent. Just a little sample of what Im talking about. Im super happy that these wonderful women got a significant pay raise in June of this year. Good on them. Stick it to Jerry. I hope Micah also sticks it to Jerry! Anyway, back to the cheerleaders. There was this cute blonde one that piqued my interest. Im soooooo phoquen happy that some in your God forsaken country are sooooo focused on both of them. Crime in LA and in DC are at a low and male cheerleaders need to be put in check.

I was never the one to discern between the two Heathers. I had a teenage boy crush on both of them equally.

I remember @balthazar posting a couple of times a couple of pics of celebrities when they were young and beautiful with father time realities . Some do age well and gracefully. Others not so much. In this case, Id rather have my teenage boy crush dreams preserved. Not that she has aged badly. We all get to be old and wrinkly at one point in time. If we are lucky to get to that stage. But Id rather remember her when she was young and perky.
