When I see pricing, I think this is it for me. Around November 2010 is when I'm most probably making a car purchase.

Not every Buick needs them. I think it looks fine without them. Every auto maker is throwing them on so it takes any design significance away because the general public has no clue it's historical to Buick.

I could definitely live with that

I'm not saying on looks... I want to know engine/package-wise/options, what will differentiate it. Being that the Cruze is supposed to be a little more premium than the Cobalt, I'm wondering how it'll differ from this.

So whop on the beat... to where there's music playin... One Day at a Time, One Day at a la da da da

Not bad. I still need to see what differentiates this from a Cruze.

Some shows I remember from growing up: la mujer bionica (Bionic Woman theme, inside joke between the Spanish teacher and myself) Diff'rent Strokes Theme Who's the Boss (started my Alyssa Milano obsession) (actually, I didn't watch this until a few years ago) And I won't admit to the last three big ones I watched

Some of my favorite theme songs include I Love Lucy All In the Family Unsolved Mysteries Growing Pains (although that was an actual song) Golden Girls (again, a cover of an actual song)

Okay, so I've been saying this for a few years now... tv show theme songs are gone. I don't even know why it's so important, but at any given moment, you can hum a theme from a tv show anytime between the 50's through the early 2000's, and everyone knows what it you're talking about. Most smile and join in. TV shows now don't have theme songs (at least most of them). They have a title screen at most. Some don't even do that and scroll credits during the beginning of the episode. Am I the only one who misses theme songs? The reason I bring it up is because again the discussion surfaced tonight when my cell went off ringing to the theme of The Office, and people chimed in humming it.

That had to be chosen on a dare. I'm sorry, but there are a million names anyone could come up with other than Verano.

Oldsmobile Cadillac Buick Chevrolet Pontiac GMC

Either a medium or dark blue metallic. I was a huge fan of slate blue metallic on the LaCrosse.

Amongst the Mercedes, Lexus, BMWs and Audis in town, a red 2010 LaCrosse CXL. It was a beautiful sight.

Yes, almost every week on gLee. And although I haven't thrown a drink in someone's face, I have poured ice water down their shirt.

I signed up for a twitter account over the summer. My friend is addicted to it, and I just can't get into it. I admit, I got overwhelmed by the insane amount of tweets I get from Alyssa Milano (I think she's just awesome and one of the only 2 girls I'd sleep with), but she was fair and warned she tweets a lot. It just basically boiled down to the point where I said to myself, I just don't care. If anyone wants to shoot 140 characters to me about something they need to say, they can text me.

I always wished the Lucerne was named Park Avenue.

Students learn "Uffa" with me fairly quickly.

Literally had this conversation with my friend on Tuesday when his 4.5 year old daughter asked how to count in French.

My microwave has become my defroster. I love that damn thing just because it eliminated the hassle of getting home and realizing I forgot to take the meat out of the freezer.

Well, not sure you would have liked Italian... Italian has some of the pickiest rules of the 3 languages. The rule behind many of the little psycho rules is because Italians like everything to flow melodically. My friend recently asked me to teach her Italian, and I taught her numbers. She was really pissed off that you had to delete a vowel every 1 and 8 starting at 18, just so it "flows" better

Haha, not sure what what you're trying to say in the second part... "sono una tazza di te`" means: "I'm a cup of tea" Bob: About a month into teaching Italian I try to tackle the definite articles with my students. Here are the rules I give them: il - masculine, singular words that do NOT begin with a vowel, gn, ps, s+consonant, x (with modern words adopted from English), or z. lo - masculine, singular words that begin with gn, ps, s+consonant, x (with modern words adopted from English), or z. l' - masculine or feminine, singular words that begin with a vowel. la - feminine, singular words that begin with a consonant. i - masculine, plural of words that use il in the singular. gli - masculine, plural of words that use lo or l' (masculine only) in the singular. le - feminine, all plural feminine words. And then of course I tell them there are your "gender benders"; i.e., words that look one gender but are in theory another, for example: il programma, or la radio.

Another one: cominciare incominciare iniziare ... all mean to begin. I was watching Charmed in Italian last night and they used incominciare when I would have used cominciare. And it left me confused.

I would have said TSX but when I thought about it, the reviews have been so negative (with ride/handling), I bumped up to something positive, the TL.
