I see nothing wrong with gun control...the need for a 'well armed militia' as outlined in the 2nd amendment may have made sense in frontier times, but has no relevance today....look at the # of murders and other gun crimes in the US per capita compared to other modern nations like Canada that have more restrictive laws... I've never owned a gun, have no reason for one.

The political right is infinitely more disgusting, with their fake moralizing, fake 'values', dominated by a group of fanatical bible thumpers that have little regard for separation of church and state--they push for garbage like 'intelligent design' in schools, they interfere with scientific research, racists, hypocrites, war mongers, gun fetishists, etc... I don't believe the right gives a damn about the 'little guy'...they only answer to corrupt big corporations of the oil industry, defense contractors, etc... I could go on and on, but I despise the 'conservative' bull$h! that has been so dominant in America in the last few decades. What's wrong with Ted Kennedy or MLK? For an immigrant you have a twisted view of the US...

I always enjoy them...I have one to go to in Colorado next month. As long as they aren't outdoors in August, I'm usually fine.. (I went to two 10 years ago that were in hot, humid places--Chicago and Buffalo--in August...ugh.)

Well, they are a bunch of hypocrites, I wouldn't have expected anything less...

Yeah, I'm bad about all of those...I have a TV in the bedroom, and usually lie down and read for a couple hours before going to sleep, or surf the web while watching the Daily Show, or South Park reruns, or BBC News... normally, I never have a problem going to sleep within a 1/2 hour of taking my pills, but last night was difficult..finally went to sleep at about 4am after taking a swim and sitting on the bedroom patio and counting stars..

Sooner they get rid of those turds the better their CAFE will be...and more money to spend on cars. A win-win.

Went to lunch and drove around a bit through the neighborhood one major street below mine..saw some oldies--white '60/61 Falcon 2dr, clean, pale blue '64 or so Valiant 2dr sedan, clean, and a baby blue '75 Olds 88 convertible, very clean.

The front has a strong family resemblance to the Clarity. It's ultramodern/futuristic and high tech. The question is, can it get the mindshare that the Pious gets now?

Yes...we know he was tortured and held prisoner...he constantly talks about it. BFD. It happened a long time ago, and is irrelevant to his leadership potential...(I wonder if that experience has made his legendary temper worse). I know a lot of people here in AZ that are sick to death of hearing his schtick over and over and over...

Saw a new Hyundai Elantra towing a tiny 2 wheeled stake bed trailer. Don't know why, just looked hilarious

McCain should have picked him...he's more qualified than Palin.

I saw Obama was in my old hometown yesterday....New Philadelphia, Ohio. Cool.

I'm thinking about work some also..starting a new gig Monday. Anticipation. New environment, new commute, new challenges. Twittering.

Took a swim. Sat by the pool counting stars...84 degrees out. Nice quiet night..should be able to sleep, can't. Dogs are sleeping. House is quiet. 'hood is quiet.

Hex by Bark Psychosis. The middle of the night is a great time for ambient.

funky

Took my Ambien as usual around 10:30 pm...now it's after 1am...groggy can't sleep..surfing the internet...maybe I should go for a swim or have a beer. Arrggggghhh

Saw a gold '66 Chevelle ht this evening..very sharp condition. And a clean pale blue '64 or so Chevy pickup.

That's a horrifying thought, 4 more years of the Repubs...the current 8 year run is 8 too many, IMHO...

Hmmm....stale cars, stale cookies?

The problem is, with the 6 middle brands GM has to prop up, Cadillac can't get the investment levels needed to be a full-line world class player. Such is reality.

Yes, but Nissan has 2 international brands with platform/engine sharing...they don't have the burden that GM in NA has of supporting 6 middle brands...

I doubt if that's the public...probably Avis/etc buying more Impalas, since the previous W rental queen (Grand Prix) is now out of production...

Was sitting at the light this morning across the street from my local Cadillac store..they had a 1/2 dozen '08 CTSes, a white XLR, a couple STSes, a black STS-v, and a bright red G8 GT rotating on the corner dais... Shweeet.

Interesting..6th gen Camaro perhaps.
