Evil Knievel (sp?)

I looked at the pictures and it is quite tragic. It makes us realize that life is fragile and we can't take things for granted. aaaantoine, I'm very sorry about this and will keep you and your extended family in my prayers.

Good call. Like I always say, "Vancouver is Canada's Miami" and it's north of our Seattle, so it's a tad colder and wetter. Therefore, the rest of the country is even colder. Mind you, I like Canada very much and their standard of living is quite high, making for a largely content population who really like living there. So, they put up new homes and start business in their own provinces. Alberta, from what I can see, is fluorishing the most. You can see the growth all around Calgary (I was there in August 2003). In the Upper Midwest, people tend to gravitate toward metro areas, like Reg is saying.

I just got a look at the new Sebring while driving around the Bay Area. I saw the ribs on the hood and the chunky (Altima-ish) rear greenhouse and super short trunk, not to mention the all too visible gas tank. Good God! While the previous Sebring / Stratus were not the pinnacle of automotive design, they were at least proportioned and likeable. Then, let's add a few more "grandiose" designs to their stable: - the entire truck line with that bulbous grille which says I need to buy my testosterone because I don't have it within, or for some guys (and maybe girls) who do have it but need an exaggerated amount - the 300 and the Magnum - again, bombastic proportions and a nasty miniscule greenhouse What's the deal? I don't like any of their products at this juncture.

You mean you're NOT going to McGill? LOL. (That seems like a cool place to have gone to school). I know...one has to go where the program they want is offered. Good for you...and all the extra loonies in your pocket as a result of this!

I believe my 92 Regal has a 4T60 (without the E). I've changed the fluid and filter every 18,000 miles or so and it now has 233,000 trouble free miles. I'm a firm believer in being easy on transmissions and keeping the fluid an odorless and light pink. Still, this family has been around a while and, in the many GM rentals I've had that were probably 4T65 equipped, I noticed they had nicer crisper shifts. Like the post above, the 4T65 is probably a better, more perfected version of the 4T60, so go with the newer one.

Still think the following ought to be out there: MUF TANG BREAD 8 (translate into Spanish)(DON'T ask some Spanish speaking lady what that means *** slap***) Then, we thought of one here in the office for the lesbian at work no one likes: CPT MNCH RUG BURN Naturally, all of the ones with the minimal sexual overtone get the biggest chuckle.

Yeah, PB, the best of her songs...especially in the 17 minute instrumental suite: "and I'll never have that recipe again...." My response to thread: Istanbul

oh, yeah, what a cute pup!!! That can't be "The Island" ? Whereabouts in the N.E. is that?

Agreed. Welcome and KEEP ON posting. Everybody here has both a love of cars and a pretty good sense of humor. BTW, NOS, how's that 4.0 grade point? Don't let me down now. :AH-HA_wink:

Yeah, baby, much like the motto: "What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas." Sorry, couldn't resist. I only saw the headlines on MSN and scanned it but, for a grown adult to be THAT insecure, it sounds like HE (Hardaway) has issues.

Ditto. Man, that's some insight. All that was going through my head was "ka-ching, ka-ching, ka-ching" .... a whole lot of money .... and even I though I get a decent paycheck, I'm one of the cheapest people on this forum. $ 1.75 for a Coke or $ 4.00 for a beer? That's how I process things.

A really good friend of mine from college (no longer a friend) and I used to proclaim: VAAAHHHHN HAY-LENN..... FUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKK.... (said a la Jeff Spicoli from "Fast Times at Ridgemont High")

Wow, 76CT, you have a lot of integrity. You took a civil approach and then defended yourself when they got unruly. I'm glad you were alone and not with the wife and daughter, for their sake. These guys were jerks and probably cowards who wouldn't have acted that way toward that lady if they were alone. Having seen your picture, I'm not your size, being about 5'-10" with a medium build, so I would have picked up my cell phone and dialed 911. I hope you're ok.
