Nickleback is far advanced from Nirvana Ive never been mainstream, but I never disliked something simply because everyone else like it.

UH...NO, its the fault of the person behind the wheel, you didnt pay attention, you didnt look in your mirrors, you didnt proceed slowly and carefully watching what you were doing, you didnt listen to what he told you and did the opposite. This was lesson # 1........it may, if you have learned anything, help keep you from a more serious situation in the future caused from not being in touch with your surroundings. Call that training 101. Live, learn and grow

I indirectly accomplished all of mine........I just didnt expect to freefall off the edge once I reached the peak. at 15 I wanted to be a studied professional musician at 18 I wanted to get into forestry as the realistic option was told NO! to both, thats how things were done back then at 25 I was working for myself at the bottom of the forestry industry but happy as could be, by the time I was 35 I was a success and the future looked bright, at 40 it evaporated before my eyes starting around the time I was 28 I was in bands that played "professionally" but that sucked, bar rooms suck ! What was most important latter on I hooked up with two others and we did compose an entire hours worth of truely origional music. Then we tried adding 2 additional member, who were lazy, worthless but highly minipulative and spent 2 months driveing wedges between us until it just fell apart. I was the only one who saw it coming and knew what they were up too. Later the truth came to light and all could see. Even as a young boy I was always into wilderness adventure, throughout my adult life I was mostly on some type of adventure be it through work or play with my dogs and sled or skiing or hiking I have pretty much always done or got to do all the things that excited me, just have little to show for it. Me ? I was born in the wrong century, 100 years too late.

Im gonna go ask my Sthil "do you like to rev?"

uh........we heard your.........uh........."vocalist" (s)...........so..........like.........what are you comparing talent too ? I was never big on the pop metal scene, every band had a few good songs, most of the rest were fillers to complete a recording and tour, not that that has been unusual in the recording industry. One thing the pop metal bands had was musical talent but 6 out of 8 times suffered for lack of creative composition skills. Cobain (if thats how its spelled) was like the anti Satriani well.... Kurt aint here no more and Joe rocks on and is highly regarded amounst his extremely talented peers.

Id say that photo would be enough to send the remaining stuffed shirt, suburban born and raised, right straight to the competition.................. "shes alot of things but she aint perty" heres some photos to remind the tunnel visioned what Cadillac was 40 years ago. "Clay model XP-825, with razor-edge lines and a formal roofline, led directly to the production '67 coupe. "

Thats kinda interesting, about 25 years ago Thanksgiving weekend, I rebuilt a Sunbeam Alpine engine on our kitchen table so I could get to work the next work day. We rented and had no shop or garage. Was pulled and replaced outside, rebuilt on table. We ate at girlfriends families house and went right back to work. The two of us had it back in and running in time to get to work. We are no longer together but she got the sports car/conv. bug from me and now owns a 83 380 SL.

I Believe in Father Christmas - Greg Lake Any and all sung by either Nat or Natalie Cole Trans Siberian is awsome. The show I saw last year was two parts. The first was the Christmas story, its narrated and has many vocalists. Most of its guitar based classical influenced tastefull metal, with a small orchestra filling in. Still its primarily guitar and drum driven...............which I love. Second half is other songs from the band. The band evolved from Savatage members. Writers Jon Oliva and co-writer - producer Paul O'Neill who has a long history himself. One of which was the touring guitar player for Tim Rice & Andrew Lloyd Webber's Jesus Christ Superstar, thus explaining his opera or story approach http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_O%27Neil...ock_producer%29 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Savatage "Christmas Eve Sarajevo 12/24" is actually from Savatages "Dead Winters Dead" which was about the insane war in Sarajevo in the early 90's when they destroyed the ancient city over BS. It was an opera of sorts and the success of that spured Trans Siberian. You will actually hear portions of whats sometime called "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" but I believe its origionally a Beethoven movement. I actually have no TSO but a full library of Savatage. Streets Dead Winters Dead The Wake of Magellan are all "rock operas"

But it werent no better, it was like going from middle school testosterone back to kindergarten "I miss my mommy"

How about "Rebuilding Cadillac One piece at a time"

James W. Marshall, who discovered gold in California in 1848 ?????
-
Queensryche 1984.................. Whos James Marshall ? Ill go look
-
Ive seen movies when he was younger and he really wasnt that good. As an mature man he really did some good stuff. What were the gamblin movies ? Was that Maverick too. Infact was that Mel Gibson ? Maybe Kenny Rogers, been about 10 years since I saw that.
-
You didnt know about this Harley ? Oh yea, that was some nice car. I didnt know there was such a thing as an "Esprit" though. James Garner was a real car guy, and if Im correct did most of his driving in that show. He always gets the crap kicked out of him, great series that was. He's one of my favorite actors too, did some great movies as an old Gent, one with Sally Fields kinda touched me. He had some ties with Oldsmobile too, maybe a pace car for Indy and some racing. Adam 12 - Lots of AMC cop cars Manix - nice Barracuda or Challenger convertable any of those old cop shows from the 60's & 70's will have scene after scene of the great American cars....Kojac ? Lots of old pimpmobiles, takes me back, makes me sad sometimes. Electras, Toronados, Rivieras, Regencys, Torinos, Galaxies, Eldorados, Continentals, NewYorkers, Devilles...........gee wiz.........

I watched and listened to both files after I posted. Still I think he just went off, a bit risky at first and then he just said F'it, "Ive had enough". If anyone thinks about it, just having seen his acting and role playing hes gotta be a loose canon with an off the wall tendency. So I bet when hes mad he acts.........about .........like he did. Not making excuses just an eval, add a few lines of coke and a smart ass with more mouth than brains, whatcha got? the story of the week. Wonder whos more hated now ? Michael Richards Michael Jackson OJ Simpson Al Sharpton Jesse Jackson Martha Stewart Mel Gibson thats some list of stand up members of society.................ey ? now evaluate it ? Like others have said, we have no idea what those guys were saying. We did hear "cracker" and "washed up or nobody" after the fact, so maybe thats where it started, who knows, awful convienent the "tape just started rolling" yarite ! lawsuit ? yarite ! ring any bells? "hecklers damaged for life from racial slurs " cry me a F'in river and float me on out of this twilight zone. responce - uncalled for ? yes heckling - uncalled for ? yes lawsuit - uncalled for ? yes double standards - uncalled for ? yes white men cant jump ? white men cant hump ? white men create this modern society ? white men help each and everybody he can ? white men fight for freedom for all ? white men die doing so ? is he a racist ? are blacks racist ? are hispanics racists ? are...ahem..."middle eastern people"... racist ? are old world peoples racist ? do women hate men ? do men hate women drivers ? do ass holes only drive Toyotas ? why cant I find more left handed guitars ? WHO CARES !

All right... first of all ! "rather than sticking with a signature dinosaur rock sound" & "Iggy Pop singing a Teddybears song titled "Punkrocker." in the same paragraph make me wanna do a Hendrix guitar act on someones head ! Iggy Pop is a dinosaur, worse yet hes one of those dynosaurs that never grew legs and crawled out of the swamp......K ! Now Jimmy, John, John Paul & Robert defined a few directions of music to this day. Anyhow if they want to get a more updated, driving sound they could use High Speed Dirt. moving on This is something a few more people around here need to let soak into their brains rather than throwing around the geriatric insult every other sentence. " Instead, empty nesters in their 50s, relieved of the cost of college tuition, are the segment who actually buys most luxury cars." while there are many variables in the luxury market this one seems to be ignored when it comes to Cadillac and Buick, yet its never thrown in the face of Lexus or Mercedes.

Kinda strange how some judge this interior on whether or not they like the "colors". Where they cut the color lines is real nice. The styling is real nice, its got gobs of character. I actually like that color combination, I wonder what color car that would go with ? Now take the red and blue leather they put in the GTO, just off to me, I would prefer a straigt red rather than one that looks like its been in the sun for 20 years. About the "NAV" has'nt anyone noticed what appears to be something the folds open in the top center of the dash pad ? It would look like ass opened though, unless maybe they did it just right. BTW - NAV is for wussies that dont belong behind the wheel of a car on public roads........ I cant wait to see what they do to upgrade the G6 interior. wonder if they will straighten out the idiotic console problems..........
-
Yes but they are not in the way, not taking up leg room or third person room. The extra reach on the arm rest allows passenger to lay entire arm on rest without having switches in their wrist.

These cars make me weak in the knees, good 'ol Ex.

Well, starting the weight is the hard part, it would be pretty rough on a standard or I should say clutch. I have a bit of pulling experience and thats alot of weight rather its on level, hard ground or not, starting it is hard. I imagine it would stress my tractor pretty good for the first 10 ft or so. Regardless The TDI V10 or any VW/Audi TDI diesels are awsome engineering achievements. I may be interested in a Diesel VW again, last one worked good for 260,000 miles.
-
Our G6 is similar to that Torrent but actually better I think. Only reason we bought it, I mean would have passed if all there was was that God forsaken black

My friends band that I did sound for in the mid/late 90's played that. Nirvana..if thats how its spelled had a few catchy songs, this being one of them. But! that period of talentless playing had much to do with my setting the guitar down. I was busy too, but so wiped out by the idea, that what was in vogue was playing and tuning the guitar as amaturishly as possible. Singing in a way that was barely understandable. Making songs out of riffs or rythmns I dismissed as lame jams decades prior, just blew my mind. Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins.........yikes ! Little did I know the progressive music I liked was going strong and many great talented bands composed amazing pieces of work. Below the radar of "pop radio". Thank goodness for the computer and Amazon.com, otherwise I still wouldnt know.

Average About the two tone, Im sure this will come in a few different color options, including a single color ?
