Heh ... my sis did that to my parents some years ago. She had had a bad dream ... and, instead of staying in her room, she burst out of it ... raced up the steps ... and burst screaming into our parents' room ... at about 2:30a.....

Ya know ... the funny thing about this particular reaction is that I've only noticed it in the last few years. Never really heard it when I was younger. I wonder if it has something to do with the "cell phone mentality" ... being that people call ... almost expecting to have to leave a message, so when someone answers the phone ... it is a bit of a surprise/shock? *shrugs* Maybe not ... I dunno.... LOL! My parents did that ... and my sis and her hubby did that recently, too.....

Ditto! Couldn't have written it better myself ... Sixty8 echoed my sentiments exactly. And, wildman ... I've posted before about how we should get together in the area.... Course, I also post my road trips and try to meet up with as many people as possible. Looks like I may be going to KY, NC/SC, GA, FL, AL and TN this coming November ... we'll see . Sadly, I'm going to miss our family reunion in PA this coming weekend ... which means I won't be heading to Detroit, as well as Ohio, NJ, MD and VA as I had planned .

The ones Caddy listed for Chevrolet were the only 5 I was able to determine, too. So, I admit, I'm curious what the additional 1.5 are.....

As I've shared previously in different threads, I was startled awake on the morning of July 26. My alarm went off as usual at 6am, but 2 minutes later ... BOOOOOOMMMMMM ... SNAP/CRACKLE ... HISSSSSSS. Then, dead silence. I sat bolt upright in bed ... realizing everything electric (or so I thought) was off. I scampered out of my room headed up the steps, instinctively turning on the stairway light .... and, wowa, ... light. So, I turned back into my room ... and flipped some of the circuit breakers and the entire house had power again. Next door neighbor heard it, too. We believe it was a lightning strike. My VCR is no more [replaced with one an Uncle gave me], my stereo receiver is toast [replaced by a new one I have since purchased], and a heated blanket and a heated mattress cover will need to be replaced before winter sets in. Ironically, the stereo receiver and VCR were plugged into 2 different surge protectors, both of which "saved" other electronics (including a TV). I have since purchased a few new surge protectors as well. My computer, which was on at the time, is fine ... no damage done. My alarm clock AM/FM radio, which, obviously, was also on ... and NOT plugged into a surge protector ... is also fine. Go figure. So ... what kind of "rude awakenings" have you had?

On a radio show last week, a discussion ensued about redundancies in the English language, particularly how they are used every day ... and can be, to some, annoying. A few that have never made sense to me why people use/say them include: "PIN Number" ... as in Personal Identification Number Number "ATM Machine" ... as in Automatic Teller Machine Machine "Hot water heater" ... so, you heat hot water? What are some you notice? Cort:33swm."Mr Monte Carlo.Mr Road Trip".pig valve.pacemaker WRMNshowcase.lego.HO.model.MCs.RT.CHD = http://www.chevyasylum.com/cort "Only you can do what must be done" ...

Ahhhh...I'm going to miss this event ENTIRELY this year. It doesn't look like I'll be going to PA next weekend for the family reunion, so I'll be missing out on my annual stop in Michigan as well . Hopefully I'll be there next year again ... it really is a cool cruise ... and I've enjoyed meeting people there .

Hmmm...sadly, not many, if any at all, really. Let's see... GMC ... perhaps the Canyon ... otherwise, nada. Chevrolet ... perhaps the Colorado ... otherwise, nada. Buick ... Even though it's FWD, I kinda like the looks of the Lucerne. Pontiac ... GTO and upcoming G8 for sure ... along with the current Solstice Cadillac ... STS, XLR Saturn ...
