we need a new sort of Trans-Am series.

I've always been a night owl, but now I'm...oh God...a month away from being 30. if I stay up all night on a weekend, I'm not waking up until after noon, and then it's HELL resetting my body clock on Sunday night so that I'll be ready for work the following morning.
-
yup. my finger is reserved for tailgaters and cutter-offers. although I'd never actually do it, in extreme cases I do wish I could get away with PIT maneuvers. ...but then I might scratch my car.

because A-holes far outnumber us decent folk.

The black one with the red GS stripes looks the best. that's my favorite automotive color combo. but I still think they should be painted blue/white center stripe/red hashmarks, driver's side only.
-
Seen a few of those myself. One a couple months ago with mfgr plates, too. I'm still waiting to see a 500C. I'll have to fight back the urge to ask the owner "that thing got a Hemi?"

New Matchbox GMs--CTSes and Pontiac Firebird Formula
Turbojett replied to Robert Hall's topic in Merchandise Lookout
I've seen the Ute and the CTS's. I wish one of them (preferably the coupe) were a V. Have not seen that Firebird yet, though. -
sounds good, sans raisins.
-
Oh lol I never even saw the R in it. It's only been around for almost a month, and I've been reading it wrong the whole time. Wow man, that's even more... " "
-
hmm? what's that? sounds interesting...

I did that the summer before my senior year of high school. It's kinda like a roller coaster when you're a kid. You're scared to death the first time, but you immediately wanna try it again. Dude went flying though, I don't think I've gone that high. ...and that one deserves a "HOLY CRAP!!"

I'm curious, what would your idea of a donked Tata be? like 13-14 inches? might be able to fit Wal-Mart wheel covers?

Yea I'd never use curry as a substitute for cayenne. Now, spaghetti in a curry sauce as opposed to a tomato sauce seasoned with curry could be really good. OR take a tomato sauce...add some cream/half-and-half/whole milk to it and then the curry...that could be good, too. Ha, yeah, I've learned that now. I usually like curry, but it doesn't mix with tomato. I did find chili powder after the fact. that probably would have worked a lot better, but I don't know how old it is. That's how I learned to cook, though: trial and error.
-
Made spaghetti last night actually, and I couldn't find any cayenne. Substituted with curry powder, and it was definitely hot, but it also made it oddly sweet-ish; maybe slightly bitter. Don't think I'll do that again unless I can figure something to balance it out.

That is indeed one badass truck.

You could'a took 'em. turbo be damned.

My brother does makes a recipe for Chicken Curry over rice that's similar to your Chicken Rice in your first post. But now that I've read that I know what's for dinner tonight. He chops up chicken, and boils it with carrots and potatoes (and celery if I'm not around), and then once it's thoroughly cooked, he adds in cream of chicken soup and enough curry powder and other spices to make your nose run. He renders it for quite a while though, it takes him usually around a couple hours to finish after he gets started. He makes the rice separately, because you're supposed to use the rice as a bed for the sauce; and for some odd reason he likes sticky rice. I used to make Alfredo sauce from scratch myself, but it's hard to get real dairy cream (price- and availability-wise), and I hate to use half & half; it just doesn't come out as good. But if I'm making pasta sauce, you can always bet there's a generous amount of garlic, cilantro and cayenne or crushed red pepper used. They say my taste buts (and probably my esophagus) will be gone by the time I'm forty.

Chinese Police Get In Hot Water With Mercedes ML Police Car
Turbojett replied to William Maley's topic in The Lounge
Big Brother says it is a Honda! Anyone who says otherwise will be shot at dawn for recklessly thinking for themselves. -
I've seen one, but I can't say I've ever driven one, or seen anyone else drive one.

I think it's probably because it's unintentional, unavoidable, and you're given a big warning painted on the back of a truck to tell you that driving too closely will damage your vehicle. I'm just speculating though, there may be more to it. we can all look back and tell Blu that he was acting childish and obscene, and, well, he was acting childish and obscene, even dangerous by cutting off a bike. Hindsight is 20/20, and in any case, Blu probably realized he met stupidity with more stupidity whenever the situation had already passed. But presented with the same situation in reality, how many of us can honestly and rationally say that they wouldn't have gotten angry and possibly done something similar? Anger, rage and aggression are human nature, and no, they aren't rational, nor can you rationalize it. Anger basically impairs your ability to think rationally, and you're basically running off primal instinct. It basically goes like: Little bitch pissed me off->I got mad and reacted->jeez, I should have thought about this before I did it. Given my temper, I'm sure I might have done something stupid/dangerous in retaliation as well if I was put in that situation. And after the fact I might have realized it, and the last thing I would want to hear from anybody else is "how could you do something so stupid?"--mainly because 1.) I don't know how I could have done something so stupid; nobody actually thinks when they're angry/threatened 2.) I've probably already been asking myself that repeatedly; is you getting on to me really that necessary?

HBD!

Even more than the price that GM would have charged. Like everything else at GM this is only the begining and not the end. I would just keep your eyes open and just see what all is coming. GM is not telegraphing its moves 5 years out anymore. In most cases we know little about what is more than a year out anymore. Just look at those here and elsewhere that use to hint and leak GM news that no longer speak openly even with strong hints. I expect a lot of suprises coming. I too wish the OPC would have made it intact but even in Europe it is expensive let alone what it would have been here. It may have been a tough sale here as once you get to that level people have a lot of very good choices. Yes, but didn't GM say in the past that the Regal (this generation, at least) would only come equipped with four-pots? That's a little worry I have to consider. True, I'd love to see the 325hp AWD come over as a new GSX/Grand Nat/GNX, but I fear it not happening. I also have to wonder how much more they can do to this car/engine to make it even better/sportier/whatever
-
I must say I'm impressed, more car than I was expecting. *sigh* but I can't help but long for the carrot that was dangled in front of us in the first place...bloody Europeans. I wonder how much it would cost to black-market an Insignia OPC and switch the grilles and badges....

really sad. There's only like 13 airworthy examples of this plane left, probably survived everything from flack to anti-air rockets, and it's finally taken down by a lowly engine fire... but yeah they could have got those trucks onto the field. I've seen firetrucks drive through mud up to their chassis before.
