that starbucks chick sounds like a piece of work

if it were a choice, why would anyone 'choose' to be subjected to so much scorn and persecution? A person's sexual preference is most definitely 'who they are'. Not a conscious 'decision'. It would seem to me you could only hold back what is true to yourself for so long.

totally hot chick also way psycho maybe humor is or isn't the best medicine right now, but at least it can serve to confirm with satire how all men have felt jilted by a woman sometimes. even after the signs were in place........it serves to highlight the schizo nature of some girls.

since you started the theme of 21st birthdays....here's another 'been there' story for ya....... one girl i thought i became involved with, i met her on a summer overnight job and got to know her as friends. once summer was over, we returned ot our respective schools (hers was in my parents' town) and she said, 'come visit me sometime'. Following that were a couple letters so I'm like, 'ok she's nice I'll visit' and i did that a few times. I had never thought of her as girlfriend material. but....... That visiting led to major involved makeout sessions quite a few times but no actual dates yet. All I know was that I began to feel things for this girl and I knew she was feeling things for me. This played out for a full school year until she got a summer internship in a large city. I did not follow her there but what then happened was we chased each other up and down the highway to visit and actually date. She was moralistic and I didn't believe in making an issue of sex a right away priority with this girl because i had begun to really fall hard for her. Always passionate making out and mischief and stuff, but never any 'breakthroughs'. I REALLY began to grow into liking her as more than a friend.....LOVING her actually. I admired her so much and her ability to have incredible conversation and her smiles turned me on to the point where she was all I could think about. I often spent nights thinking about her and whether she felt the same. Well, it all had to come to a head. She told me she was coming to my town the weekend of my 21st birthday (coincidence..LOL) and was taking me out both nights. Again, she was moralistic and often worried about how good she was and so stayed with a friend that weekend, but it was right by my place and I guess I always had a thought that maybe she might stay with me this time. She got into town and showed up and gave me a really nice card. I am like, this is gonna be the weekend. Somehow in the middle of that weekend, I couldn't contain myself any longer and told her something to the effect that i loved her as more than a friend, thinking I would capitalize on the specialness of the weekend. After all, she was setting aside this weekend to be there with me. I had two great nights at the bars and she was wonderful but somehow in there at the end of one of the nights I got the 'I don't think of you quite that way' line. The I don't LOVE you admission. How in the hell could I have been so wrong? All the signs were in place and everything suggested a breakthrough weekend and moment. OH WELL. She said she was sorry and I think was caught off guard a bit. Needless to say things deteriorated after that. I got a letter from her a month later saying she needed me and needed to have me as a friend and that she missed me. I suppose that was because I didn't talk to her after that weekend. I made a few attempts to visit her after that. She actually had started dating some guy who had his motorcycle apart on her living room floor. I was the only friend invited to her college graduation and met her parents and family. I fell out of touch with her after that. I figured I tried and she didn't step up to the plate. Oddly, she moved to my town for some post grad the following 18 months or so, but i only saw her once during that time and i think that last time was when she saw and actually felt how much she had hurt me. Awhile after that she sends a picture from her wedding on a cruise ship. I am positive I was the only guy to get that. It's like, 'look at me! i got married and it wasn't you!'. Meh. It only hurts now because the emotion I invested and the wway she made me feel and so many other things. That said, I am very happy with my wife and one of the reasons was because she never played those games and was always 100% honest in the way she treated me and others.

mustang, that sort of thing does indeed happen. a few times with me. I feel bad for ya. All you want to do is get to know someone and see what they are about and some prefer to just play games and yank us around like puppets on a string. yeah, i had a couple of those almost like that, lots of deep intimate talks, baring your soul, etc. and then at some point they give you the shaft. i have been told that women at that age get very anxiety ridden and confused about what they actually want in guys and stuff. Chemically imbalanced practically. But to me, it doesn't give them an excuse to treat people so poorly. Hang in there bro. I'm gonna grab a beer and share it with ya. Anyone else free to jump in and grab a cold one too.

i hope that's not our new maxima

maybe........

well, she's not even fond of it and much prefers the Focus she had before it. she did hyundai due to warranty basically. i think the new sentra holds promise. there will be lots of previews at NYIAS and so we'll see then i guess.

sh1t, Paulie.....I think you're alright! any parent will or should never be disappointed with their kid for being who they are. I guess I feel that about anybody. They may not be able to understand who you are fully, but I would hope there is unconditional love just the same. UNLESS MY DAUGHTER GOES TO WORK FOR HYUNDAI or something....

i've seen one mazda5 rental

"The Tribune-Chronicle reports that sales for the Chevrolet Cobalt through the first quarter of 2006 were nearly double that of the same period last year. The increase was seen on a month-to-month comparison as well. So far, over 52,000 Cobalts have been delivered this year."

ab

you might be right. first off, they don't want it stealing corolla and scion sales. secondly, the echo/yaris are really only sold here because they sell like hotcakes in canada and the canucks get all wet over them. so to bring a few over to the US is like gravy, whatever they sell. its all gravy right now considering the hybrid prius and CAMlee are really what they want AMURCHANS to buy for fuel economy.

can i at least rip my sister's elantra then?

the aura concept looks WIDER. just like the G6 concept did.

that one pic does not look encouraging, it does look like it lost something from the show car, however, its just one pic. let's see what comes out next week. It does look like it could be another G6 cocncept to showfloor debacle. I do like the crease they added to the fenders because it makes it look less like a jellybean.

many saturn buyers won't set foot in another GM branded showroom. plus, CamLEE has the 4 cyl.

add- Grand Prix and G6 owners that want DOHC under the hood and nicer interiors

DOH! we need more pictures buddy! besides, wasn't that 50 cents?

ok, truce? I'll restrain my azera bashing for awhile.

wow, you must have spent an hour on that. nothing good on TV? The family hamster wasn't around to torture? PEACE, OUT. how old is that? it SO inspires lust and passion. It's so original. its a CHERY!

front looks like a jap-a-nees car, the greenhouse is stretched malibu and the far rear looks like the butt end of the caliber.

another NEW sonata at the Hertz today. 3 total just in the front parking lot.

This is where I see cars like the Impala potentially cleaning house, if the Camlee goes too high up the price ladder. Already Camlees and Avalons are seen as very geriatric cars. Rarely do I seen anyone under 50 or 55 driving one (unless they are Asian). The more Toyota sells in volume, the more it becomes less of an intellectual's brand and the more pressure you get from dealers to feed the monster with sales, lower prices, etc. Then, the pond scum of the earth starts to become available to buy them, then Consumer Reports ratings will start to go down. Then we also see them hitting the fleets.
