Will It Blend?

if i am correct i believe there were 37 different paint schemes for your chevrolet in '57 solids and two tones combined... hows that for color of your choice?

where is your vegeta icon from boyah? it looks very familar

eh i'd refer to them more as a derranged family than a church... especially since 95% of the congregation is from the same family. they could have a family re-union that would make charles manson uncomfortable at. as for PETA? well their ad campaigns have always been a double edged sword; expressing their agenda while making themselves look dumb and indifferent at the same time.

awesome. i need to go get the movie. favorite line from the trailer " a new study finds depression hits losers the hardest"

* Porsche schedules 8 days of production stops at main plant * Volkswagen may stop production in Wolfsburg for 3 weeks * Audi says production halts are a precaution * BMW says will cut further 400 temporary jobs in Leipzig * Porsche shares down 8.8 pct, VW down 17.7 pct (Adds Audi production stops, BMW temporary job cuts) FRANKFURT, Nov 25 (Reuters) - German carmakers made another move to cut output levels towards the end of the year to offset slumping demand as the global economic crisis prompts consumers and companies to closely monitor their finances. Sports car maker Porsche (PSHG_p.DE: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz) halted production at its headquarters in the southern German town of Zuffenhausen, for one day on Nov. 21, and planned to stop assembly for another seven days until end-January. The company said on Tuesday it no longer saw its financial year unit sales to end-July reaching the previous same period's level of 98,652 vehicles. The German car industry accounts for about one in eight jobs in the country, according to German auto industry association VDA. The downturn in car sales has also started having an impact on other sectors such as chemicals and electronics. Volkswagen (VOWG.DE: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz), in which Porsche holds 42.6 percent of the shares, earlier said it was also considering suspending production, eyeing a three-week halt at its main Wolfsburg plant from Dec. 18 until Jan. 11. VW luxury vehicle unit Audi followed suit. A spokesman for the company said the carmaker's orders have been stable, and the production halts were preventative measures. Domestic peer BMW (BMWG.DE: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz) had suspended production at its factory in Leipzig for a week last month and is currently operating only one shift a day there. The company now plans to cut 400 further temporary workers in Leipzig, in addition to previously announced plans to cut 8,100 full-time jobs around the world, a spokesman for the company told Reuters on Tuesday. At 1559 GMT, shares in Porsche were down 8.8 percent to 51.07 euros. Volkswagen had slipped 17.7 percent to 271.38 euros and BMW was down 2.4 percent to 19.245 euros. The DJ Stoxx European autos index was down 6.3 percent.

also we could probably use a lot more of this Johnson & Johnson Nothing but tears

the onion is always good for a laugh. PENSACOLA, FL—Harold Enderby's friends say that when he first saw the Navy's televised announcement that the Flight Demonstration Squadron, better known as the Blue Angels, would be holding open tryouts for the first time in its history, the lifelong aviation buff turned to his fellow sanitation workers at Doug's Dugout Bar-N-Grill and said, "Mark my words—I'm going to be a Blue Angel if it's the last thing I do." And this Sunday, that dream came true for an incredible 43 seconds, as Enderby got the chance to fly the famed Blue Angels' F/A-18 Hornet directly into the tarmac during the first day of the Navy's most dramatic—and colorful—audition program ever. Since 1946, the Blue Angels have recruited only elite military fighter pilots. But this week and this week only, the Navy is giving the public a rare treat: allowing ordinary, everyday citizens a chance to try out for the world's premiere stunt flying team. Memorial services for Enderby, along with five other late aspiring aviators and 81 others from the assembled crowd and surrounding communities, will begin Friday and continue throughout the month. "It was quite a sight to see so many citizens arriving at the airbase entrance just hours after the initial announcement," said Lt. Cmdr. Maxfield Walton, the officer in charge of registering and interviewing the excited applicants, as well as contacting their next of kin. "Who knows? Your old math teacher, a cab driver, the guy in the next cubicle who can't seem to do anything right—anybody could be the next Chuck Yeager. Now this is their chance to strap themselves into a† $41 million 1,200 mile-per-hour airplane and show us what they can do." Though some of the amateur Angels got into the cockpit, suddenly realized they didn't know what they were doing, and jumped right back out, Navy officials said all who put aside their fears or lack of experience or physical disability to climb aboard a fighter jet were stars today. The once-in-a-lifetime tryouts will continue throughout the week. But long after the flames resulting from this unique recruiting experiment have died—which FEMA personnel said should happen within 10 days—the fire of these plucky applicants' enthusiasm will shine on. The enthusiasm of Erin Rappaport, a Springfield, IL eighth-grader who played flight simulators on her PlayStation and impressed Naval flight teams when she sat in the F/A-18 Hornet's cockpit for the first time and already knew, or could guess,† the functions of many of the jet's 188 different controls. "That sounds just like Erin," said Rappaport's math teacher, Janice Billingsly. "We'll miss her very much." Erin wasn't the only special person who flew here today; she wasn't the only female, or the only person to crash into Pino's Pizza on Grove Avenue, or even the youngest. But, witnesses said, she displayed incredible grit and a can-do attitude to her classmates who were inside eating pizza when she tried to fly by and wave. Officials also singled out the determination of San Dimas, CA's Alfred K. McAllister—affectionately described by Blue Angels flight instructor Harmon Links as a "hell of a tough old guy"—who took off and just kept going. "We almost couldn't find enough phone books for him to sit on, and he decided against the helmet because it knocked off his glasses," Links said. "But what a trooper. He never once looked back. Radar finally lost track of him about 200 miles out over the Atlantic, still climbing." "I think he thought he got to keep the plane!" Links added. "If we ever locate and recover the wreckage, we hope to give him the proper burial he deserves." Others noted the beaming face of Peter Collsworthy, a foreman at an Akron, OH cement plant for the past 25 years, who got the biggest roars from the crowd by far. "He may have flunked the 'near-miss' part of the high-speed aerobatic pass, caused the death of a man with 17 years' flight experience when he sheared the wing off of Cmdr. Hickock's plane, vomited into his helmet, panicked, inverted the aircraft with the throttles maxed, and hit Mach 1 just before crashing into bleachers full of spectators with almost a full load of fuel," Blue Angels commanding officer Brock Saxon said. "But he nailed the steep climb and the steep dive, and he certainly had showmanship. If there's one thing I keep telling my cadets, it's that you can't teach enthusiasm. I think we all learned a little something about the power of raw enthusiasm here today." "That crowd was rocking out to 'Danger Zone' when he plummeted into them at the speed of sound," said Lois Collsworthy, Peter's widow. "That would have meant a lot to him. He always loved that song." http://www.theonion.com/content/news/blue_...first_ever_open

what? he didnt ask about a HANS device hehe

na you were right to laugh, the prius thing has been in jeff dunham's skit for quite a while. at least 2 yrs now. jeff owns one its his wife's and its purple. he is making fun of himself really. maybe the guy is as embarassed to drive it as jeff is and thats why he took offense hehe. as for the flowmasters... well i think GM should have a contract with them for their trucks. nothing sounds better that flowmaster 40's on a chevy truck.

got the two point harness system in my impala. those shoulder belts have been in the hangers for years now. the only time i take them out is to answer someones question on what they are and how they work. i was told a lot of people burned up in cars with those setups that thay couldnt un latch.

i couldnt help myself i just had to reply to that video... i mean really its a vehicle identification label sister but since you are doing that "report" in your driveway which looked to be beside a mill hill house i'll let that one slide.

hhmmmm wonder if i can make that my ringtone. i'd probably make that my ringback tone now that i think about it. and as such would probably never answer my phone again just so people would get to listen to it.

dunno just seems to make them out to be greedy suits that dont care about the workers. i guess i am so pissed at the negative media it just seems to irk me when it even comes up in the news now. especially when they seem to make it like its a waste of time and money when citi bank keeps getting dough shoveled in. the goledn parachute irks me too.

no i'm not CT i am diagnostic

its easy to see why everyone is dancing as they watch the big 3 flounder. this was in the paper today. it just infuriates me to no end. to top it off on the same page of the opinions section was a little quirp about the domestics begging for a bail out but sending all the jobs overseas and thn using the money for NASCAR sponsorships. i mean really. how misinformed can you possibly be?

yeap, the best SNL con only be found on box sets. +1 dude its hard to take a joke when your livelyhood is the punch line. and i could care less what the "writers" or those "comedians" think about real world stuff after the little strike they had people should be making fun of them for being so pretentious. i'll venture to say that neither party has had a credible contributing job to society since they were in high school.

Also GT5 comes out 1st quarter too. though i believe it is PS3 only it may be PC too.(?)

wow. i am stupified... i wonder what the requirements for being controls in the study were? http://www.tatom.org/documents/CNN.com-Stu...wstudyshows.htm

unless you get easily frustrated. EGM says that the cops in undercover are even more rediculous aggressive than the ones in most wanted. they said the cops and the AI are like the last levels of black list on most wanted but worse. eh, i think i am going to hit up midnight club LA this Christmas

hmm thats kinda dumb, you'd think that a game only for the xb would also be for a pc at least.

well the do the sides and the back with the #1. sometimes id i wait a long time to go back they use the clippers with a comb to thin it out then they finish the top with scissors and a comb. but hey i'm not going to argue with a barber who has been cutting my hair since i was 5... thats also almost 70.

#1 fade. three months later i come back and they get another $9
