  1. I voted for everything I'd consider were money no-nissuse.
  2. Yep! Apparently the city plow drivers have forgotten how to do their job. One of the big ones got stuck trying to go UP the unplowed hill rather than taking the plowed street at the top of the hill and plowing downward.
  3. I'm assuming this is hypothetical, since I'd sure as heck would consider a Lamborghini, but you know, I doubt I could ever afford one. Added Fiat.
  4. The one you just posted.

    @ the Prius.
  6. That's what happens when one don't check browser compatibility. Yeah I'm referring to the main article you sent.
  7. Well we're FINALLY getting in on the action. Pretty decent storm here. 7-10 inches forecast in the area I live. They recently upgraded the Winter Weather Advisory to Winter Storm Warning. Fun stuff. Just watched a 2WD Silverado with its wheels turned full left sliding straight down my hill. Let is snow let it snow let it snow.
  8. Web design fail. The text goes off of the reading area and into space.
  9. I do agree with Camino in teh sense that while NASA may be a "money pit" what they spend annually is nothing compared to all the money we waste throwing at say, pointless wars, or bailing out big banks.
  10. <-- rage
  11. Nice photos, but I just feel the need to clarify this, because it's been said before. CAFE is not the real reason the Caprice is not available to the public. That was just an excuse by GM.
  12. You sure you want to go in there?
  13. Well there's yer problem.
  14. That's what they get for taking images off Google!
  15. Polish newspaper claims 'Pedobear' is 2010 Vancouver Olympic mascot A Polish newspaper mistakenly identified "Pedobear", a notorious internet meme, as one of the mascots of the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver. The Gazeta Olsztynska published an image showing the bear alongside genuine Olympic mascots Quatchi, Sumi, Miga and Mukmuk to illustrate a feature about the Games. It appears that the newspaper lifted the picture from Google Images, unaware that it had been created as a prank by Michael Barrick, a Canadian artist and graphic designer. Pedobear, who is on the far right of the picture, was originally devised by members of the anarchic 4chan message board as a way of mocking users who expressed a sexual interest in young people. Since then a tasteless internet trend – or meme – has emerged in which users insert the bear into other photos in a contest to create the most inappropriate composite image. On his blog yesterday Mr Barrick wrote that online amusement about the newspaper's error had sparked a surge of interest in his artwork, and hinted that the financial burden of the Games on Canadian taxpayers was the motivation for his mischievous creation. He wrote: "There seems to be a Tweet about this coming up every minute or two. The day before this started I was amused by the 27,000 hits I got in January. Yesterday alone I got 120,000 (with about one third coming from Poland) and today is looking like it will top that by at least double." He added: "Maybe I'll just keep the money to help cover the price gouging, raised taxes, disappearing arts funding, and all the other "benefits" we Vancouverites are getting from the games that are kicking me in the back pocket." The four genuine mascots of the Vancouver Olympics and Paralympics were inspired by traditional native creatures. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/howaboutthat/7187027/Polish-newspaper-claims-Pedobear-is-2010-Vancouver-Olympic-mascot.html#

    It'll be nice to have reverse again Camino, I know I'm very happy now that the Grand Marquis has reverse again.
  17. Good luck, hopefully your stay will be uneventful.

    Call around? I'm sure one will have an transmission already out. Hell if you wanna drive I know of a couple in the area that will probably have one.

  20. That is your computer telling you that the integrated graphics suck.
  21. Not a problem for any of my cars.
  22. It has little to do with the car and everything to do with the tires it has on it. Had they put snow tires on the Camry it most likely would have done fine.
