it's amazing how an ugly slow vehicle like the CRV can have such success when there are at least 3 other competitors that are superior. I bet the CRV is cannibalzing the accord also. the CRV is the ultimate woman friendly vehicle and that's why it's cashing in big time. it's so soft, it appeals to both sides of the fence for women. I just don't see many men getting CRv's.

has been no porn on the big screen a-kid gets first dibs on what's on tv so i rarely get to watch anything on the big screen b-there's just something wrong about it presented in that large of size. it's like 'why didn't they have 50" HDTV when I was 16? c-the neighbors can generally see what you are watching so you try to not to broadcast that stuff all around

philips has some all new 42" LCD's out now that promise to be excellent, with the ambilight and all.

DIRTY DANCING -NOBODY PUTS BABY IN THE CORNER

well, he is a tech only, and his continual lack of LTR relationship and pickiness with women are really making me start to wonder if...... as if the flashdance style apparel in one if his MS pics from his HS era doesn't make me wonder if....... -
DIRTY DANCING -NOBODY PUTS BABY IN THE CORNER
regfootball replied to regfootball's topic in The Lounge
ah, $h! blu....my head was fine this morning. i got up about 630 and drank some water and went back to bed and got up and even made 1030 church. about 2 bottles last night and a bottle and a half the night before. had a headache after the first night but not today. we recently made a big wine purchase and the rack was overflowing. when the rack is overflowing, you must partake. and thus i drank from the sweet bottles. wine poop is nasty, though.....LOL between all the wine and pomegranet juice i drank this wkd, i think my antioxidants are taken care of for a while. truth is, had i not fallen asleep last night, i would have drank another bottle. it was going down. funny what crosses your mind when you drink wine at home. anything from sheer relaxation to 'will my possibly bi-sexual ex coworker ever show me her rack if i get her drunk enough' to 'damn, i didn't realize there was this many channels on satellite'....... -
another example of our impending downfall as a nation. wait till this girl gets a pass made at her by her freshman dorm roomate, looking for a little roomate muff diving. how will she react then? will she FREAK OUT?

just finished setting up a wrls network and rebooted and logged into internet. msn home page popped up and what do i see? A new tag line for saturn ads.... RETHINK AMERICAN and then it proceeds to go through a list of all GM's advantages (warranty, etc.). Is GM taking the gloves off finally in their advertising? I like it. Might fall on its face but at least they are trying. go to msn.com and see if you see the same thing.

well, no, because I know in a Geely I would die if I accidentally bumped a sign post in the parking lot.

the new accord coupe is alright. i could see why some might put it on a favorites list. it does not belong on the hate list. I liked the old IS but I think this new one has a lot more presence to it. It kinda makes the new 3 series and all new C class look a bit cheap, at times. -

i gotta admit. toyota did a great styling job on the IS. It has an aggressive stance and broad shouldered look and proportions that are extremely rare for a japanese brand car. rear view is really nice. grille could be better though. -
blu, what did that person say about the FJ? Like/no? And do they like the Edge better?

after a few weeks and months of watching tv on the new set I must say that I am very happy with my philips plasma. Completely satsified so far, and no problems of any kind. I am blown away at the picture quality of the plasma and philips product. I was just reading a tv review for a new Samsung LCD that is apprently the best LCD on the market and is a near match in PQ for plasmas, so it seems the gap is closing and that soon LCD's will be watchable for movies and sports, too. there is nothing like high def. to top it off, my brother in law just got ISF trained to do video calibration and maybe I can sweet talk him into trying it on my TV. Soon I hope to get that Apple TV and say goodbye to DVD's (well not all of them).

ok, was channel flipping they had Dirty Dancing on sat tonight. got stuck on it...again I don't care if this is THE quintissential chick flick....I LOVE THIS MOVIE. Ok, maybe it's the second bottle of wine tonight. Two nights in a row, drinking at home. I'm on board with this. All you guy guys say what you want about Patrick Swayze.... that Jennifer Grey, I'd bust that. Damn. Not just once. But maybe a couple 2-3 hundred times. Vastly underrated she was. It's a shame the face didn't match the bod. Then, when she tried to fix it, she went too far and 'bye bye career'. So anyways, the movie itself. Great soundtrack. One of those 'period' movies and 'coming of age' movies at the same time. The acting is marginal at best but somehow the raw emotion and feeling of the time comes across and the story is well told. Plenty of heat, and big ending. As Ebert would say 'thumbs up'. There is a guy I used to work with that hates this movie. He is like 32 now and still single. I told him he should rent this movie and watch it with a date or something and he'd be guaranteed to score. He said he hates the movie so much he wouldn't care. I told him, 'that explains why you are and will forever be single'. The first time I saw this movie I was working overnight stock crew at a target store (yes, like 18 years ago) and our shift manager lady chick brought in the movie to watch over break. I could not believe how 'psyched' this movie got the women. I just thought it was an ok movie but after they kept going on and on about it I got that women like to watch movies about situations and feeling s they envision themselves in. Then eventually i started dating my wife and she liked the movie too. There is a lot of cheesiness to the movie but that's what makes it timeless. That, and an excellent soundtrack. Every song as it is presented in the movie captures every moment of the story brilliantly. So what is the verdict on this movie and patrick swayze and jennifer grey? more wine./...... \ any other chick movies you guys get caught staying on when channel flipping?

if the car was stylish, no one would care about the lineage.

in the interest of an open mind and fairness, i looked at those nicely snapped images of this thing again today. and i realized it's even uglier today than i thought it was yesterday. wow. This thing is just flat out terrible. is honda purposely making this ugly to appeal to the hyundai lovers (i.e. ugly car lovers) out there? Are they making the accord ugly just so they can purposely sell more next gen higher priced TL's? i.e. make more $$$$ selling a prettier version of the same car. The doors and greenhouse are not that objectionable but the front and rear ends and big overhangs are not nice. And yes, the fact that it's weighted down does not help the visual, but there are just many bad things here. I almost see some Chevy Epica in this too. I might be crazy there, though. http://www.km77.com/marcas/chevrolet/2006/epica/gama/g01.asp

you can leave the new accord off the 'best' list.....LOL! -
yup. the mazda 3 kicks the civic's ass so there's no reason to think the next 6 won't kick the accord's ass. Mazda is licking their chops after seeing this Honda dung. Honda is really going after the old folks homes with this thing. i wonder if they will be doing ride and drives at assisted living places. Chris, do you really sleep with a camera under your pillow?

the next Mazda 3 is the one that stands to gain BIG TIME from this honda fukup. correction, mazda 6

DAMN IT you beat be to it! Actually it looks like a Hyundai Sonata mated with a Suzuki Verona and produced something direct to the 'big lots' store. Wow, I did not expect to lay an egg like this. New Bu is much prettier, as is the Fusion and Aura. TAURUS even has it all over this turd. Why didn't Honda bother to just extend the design they have then? Congrats on the scoop, Chris, even if it's not, ahem, PRIDDY. The folks at Nissan must be popping champagne corks after seeing this. The Altima just shot up the charts. WOW. Bob Lutz must be having a Cigar and some well aged scotch right now!

TL meets Jetta. etc. dull, but inoffensive and should continue to guarantee huge sales for toyota for another 4years, especially with gas prices the way they are.

I would like to swap out the plood with metal.
