LOL Im not invested in the Royals to give you an answer back. Oh....I do have rebuttals, but I dont give a shyte about them. I aint wasting my time for them. My country wants to make a national holiday to mourn the Queen's death on her burial to which I BEG that we dont have to. (Yeah....Id rather go to work, not sell a single french fry and lose money on that day than be forced to celebrate and mourn a royal.) The government wants all the Provinces to agree to that though. Thank the Lord I happen to live in Quebec and it wont matter if English Canada votes yes to a national mourn/holiday as Quebec doesnt give a shyte about British Royalty. It didnt have to be done better. It just had to be done. And be done quickly. And it was done quickly despite all the possible entities being involved that had their own agendas. And Im happy the Freedom Tower itself and the other WTC buildings didnt have ANY resemblance of remembering or commemorating the fallen Twin Towers like the first proposals. Im glad the Freedom Tower is a big block of pure American Skyscraper looking tall and solid like a big American athlete/boxer with its chest puffed up saying to all that were involved in those terrorist attacks, phoque you, I was down, but know Im up and stronger than before. And Im here to represent Liberty and Freedom that much louder! WTC 2 is yet to be decided upon and obviously built. But there is a skyscraper void in the skyline. I cant wait for it to rise up! The memorial is great that a building(s) built to remind us that twin towers once stood there would keep the skyline as a permanent visual scar and not propel New Yorkers and all Americans to stand proud and strong. Only to always see a scar and continue to weep. The triangular facets are very imposing and the sunlight highlights them when the rays hit them. Just my opinion. BTW, it took a decade plus, as I have read in some sources, before anybody and especially New Yorkers to warm up to the Twin Towers.

Questionable father is more of a monarch thing. Failure as a husband that he eventually cheated on his wife would also be a monarchy thing. His then girlfriend Camilla was not princessy like. She didnt exude virgin vibes. Diana was just 19 when they got married. He was 32. Both were forced upon each other for monarchy image reasons. When you analyze it a tad deeper, Diana was just 16 when she met her prince. How phoqued up is that? They got married in 1981. That would be AD. Not BC. I dunno about you, but my non-royal Greek a$$ has higher standards for my daughter than for me to ship her off without an education and I dont care if that person is 'royalty' almost twice her age. As we eventually saw from both, money does not bring happiness. I dont really care for any royalty, much less for the British one, but I dont fault King Charles III for his failed marriage to Diana. I blame the hypocritical institution that is the British monarchy. Not that I care all that much.

The Queen is dead. Long live the King! (as they say) Maybe now, with a new monarch, but Im not holding m breath, the Parthenon Marbles will be returned back to Athens where they rightfully belong. If not, phoque him too!!!

Yeah, the 4 door A-Body leaves much to be desired.

Buick exterior stylists also need to get with the mother$%&$^& program or get the $%#% out

For this hoping to raise 60-85 billion Euros for developing more of this

Not as clear as you say it is. But yeah, the focus from GM and Buick has been China for awhile now. Yes they are. But I am curious to know why you say it like this Because those buyout offers are not as how you insinuate they are... You know, to focus on China. Because those buyouts are for those Buick dealerships that do not want to go forward with the all electric Buick portfolio in the very near future. https://www.cnbc.com/2022/09/02/gm-offers-to-buy-out-buick-dealers-that-dont-want-to-invest-in-evs.html https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a41075272/buick-buyout-dealers-ev-sales/

Back to the Buick... Its a gas powered thing. A CVT transmission, 1.5 liter turbo 4. It looks like any other ho-hum CUV.

Just a higher belt-line, higher stance, 4 door Corrado.

This is where the mass market lies. Sedans are dying in the mass market, but not necessarily in the exclusive luxury market. Also, 2 door cars will always exist in the sports car market. But I do see UV styling, the UVs that are meant for average Joe hauling stuff around, evolving more into a high sedan hatchback look rather than the classic rugged offroad look of an SUV. And if it continues to evolve into a more softer less UV look, the styling will eventually go full circle back into a more car like design. The Charger EV is kinda heading that way... As a 2 door and rumour has it, it will retain its 4 door evolution. The Pontiac Rageous concept, it seems, was just much too much ahead of its time. Much like the Eagle... Therefore, Im keeping a very positive vibe going forward with what it seems to be an EV styling revolution as to why we are heading in a more sedan like UV.

British Invasion part 2 was awesome! Ive had this song stuck in my head for the last couple of weeks. There was a softball tournament in my neighborhood that my daughter and I attended, Canadian Championships for A ball U17 girls and this song came blasting up on the speakers. I was surprised that this song would be playing at a softball tournament in 2022, but it did and it still stuck in my head.

Ive had chickenpox. My wife too. I dont think about shingles all that much. My wife, however, has it on her mind to inform our family doctor about shingles and a shingles vaccine. All the family has had 3 shots of the Covid vaccine. The wife and kids all have Pfizer but I have the 1st two as Pfizer and the 3rd Moderna. We are waiting for the updated booster to be available. As soon as its available, we all get to be jabbed. We dont do flu shots. None of us get sick during flu season.
