What does "D" stand for? "M" stands for mother, right? That means she has kids. Everyone on C&G knows I don't dig single mothers. Response to thread: London Broil

Sorry, but the M in MILF doesn't do it for me. Response to thread: Mel's Diner

Joe added some of the things he liked. Here's my favorite, as you all know (obtained from consumerguide auto.how stuff works). Stunning!

No, Drew, not really. I've always shopped for a very specific type of car that GM served up...offering me numerous choices, actually. Of course I would buy from GM again. However, at this juncture, I don't like their offerings. Their mid-size sport sedan offerings have withered into nothing. I've complained on the Buick thread about the new LaCrosse with its ridiculous and not-so original profile...and am in the minority. In the last gen model, the LaCrosse kicked ass on the Taurus. In this go-round, the tables have turned. That's what I'm talking about. And I'm not happy that I have to acknowledge that.

Awesome, Joseph. Electra: I remember when the bigger 4.1 V6 with a 4-bbl was brought on to power the bigger cars in the early 80s. I believe you could opt up in the mid-size cars, like the Regal Grand Prix: that dash, that dash Monte Carlo: I hardly think the dude in the suit across the street from what looks like Central Park West could get these chicks if he drove around Manhattan in a Monte Carlo

If that next round were right now, ditto. I'd be looking at a new Mercury Milan* or the 2010 Ford Taurus, a notch up in price point. *right, ocn, I too don't like it when you can configure a base engine (2.5) with some nicer interior trims (wrapped steering wheel, wood inserts) nor alloy wheels...that's nuts...

insults

In bucket seat and console form, with alloy wheels and a decent color, it is affordable, economical (up to 33 mpg) and reliable. I could live with one, but a few other GM cars would be ahead of it.

Wow, it's amazing that capital intensive businesses can't seem to operate without government intervention (airlines, now automakers)...

I'm curious about this - Houston doesn't show up on anyone's list. I like Houston ok. But everyone bitches "oh, it's so damn humid." With Austin being slightly west of Houston and at a similar latitude, is there THAT much difference in the weather? I've only passed through Austin in early summer once (to check out UT for grad school - too effin' big at 50,000 students) and I recall that it was pretty damn hot.

I remember that. Rented Cadillac DTS, right?

It was weird that I got there by "accident." With the company I had applied to, I had "checked the box" for Miami. I was told that they didn't have a position in South Florida, but that I could work in Atlanta. Coming from LA, I had no frame of reference. Miami looks "kind of" similar. So, I got to take a trip to Atlanta, interviewed and then drove around. I drove inward from the Perimeter (I-285) on LaVista Road, through the Emory area, and then onto Briarcliff into downtown. It was like driving through a forest. I thought: OMG. Sign me up. And that's I how I got to live in the ATL for a couple of years. Should have never left.

My Dad had a '70 LeMans coupe with an inline 6. Far and away, the most dependable car he ever had. For me, that collector car is the 75-77 Cutlass Supreme (or Brougham)(or Salon) coupe. It kills me when I see one in mint-condition driving down the street.

Yeah, 'blu could be his "bitch" in the white-collar jail they're gonna put him in. Awesome.

Ok, Billi, I see your logic.

...and how do you know this?
