  1. The Wire. Various BBC America shows--Doctor Who, Torchwood, Top Gear, Life on Mars, Hotel Babylon, Jekyll, etc. Kind of liking Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. Bill Maher show. 30 Rock, The Office, L&O, L&O:SVU, and L&O:CI occasionally.
  2. My sister the traveling consultant is addicted to L&O reruns.... every night on the road at hotels she watches L&O reruns..
  3. Hmmm...the radio/hvac controls look plasticky...and what's the hazard lights button doing down amongst the hvac controls?
  4. Karl Rove Dick Cheney GW Bush Paris Hilton Lindsay Lohan Donald Rumsfeld Donald Wildmon James Dobson Ann Coulter Rush Limbaugh The world would be a better place without all of these, IMHO.
  5. I'll still never forget the time about 1990 (I was about 20) and I was driving my mom's pristine silver blue '68 Cougar...I was walking into a 7-11, some teenagers came out and commented about what a sharp Camaro I had.. Another time, a coworker complimented my sharp Celica....umm, it's an '87 Mustang GT. Clueless people are everywhere.
  6. Yep...listening to 'Immigrant Song' now..
  7. Led Zeppelin--When the Levee Breaks
  8. Reading the article, it sounds like it IS the old one, but with a new front clip that looks like the new C-class...so the old rear quarter treatment remains, updated with new taillights and hatch and fascia shape.. That is odd that M-B would take such a cheapo approach by updating the old model rather than designing a new one on the new platform..
  9. Nine Inch Nails-A Warm Place
  10. I have a coworker that swears his Prius is a sports car.... (ironically, he a pic in his cube of the '71 Challenger he had back in the '80s).
  11. My manager drives an '07 TL, which is a car I like...but his previous car was a '02 BMW 540i. Then I found out he bought the TL only because he couldn't find a 'Camry Sport' (is there such a thing?). Now I seriously question his judgement...
  12. I wonder if they will offer it in the base Tahoe and Silverado to up their mileage averages...
  13. The weekend was nice, sunny and 50s, today is supposed to be sunny and upper 40s. But there is a lot of snow coming down in the high country, which should get here to the Front Range by tomorrow, so it will back to snow and cold..
  14. Of course, My Name is Earl is probably the only reference most people under 35 have to El Caminos, since their hasn't been one in over 20 years...
  15. Interesting..never heard that one.... by the way, didn't the modern Buick-in-China begin with a government purchase of Regal sedans?
  16. I've seen 4 late model A4 Quattro convertibles in the last few days..that is one sweet looking car in black or dark blue...
  17. Those GEs seem to go and on...my folks GE fridge made it 38 years before it died...was in excellent shape, appearance-wise.
  18. I usually go to Vegas once a year or so, it's a short cheap plane ride from here...I usually can't take it for more than a couple of days, though.. I go for a concert or shows, and dining more than gambling.
  19. Yes, and there is a one-page sidebar in the Dodge article with the story of the Super-Light...neat stuff. I don't think I've ever seen a '70 Polara convertible in person..beautiful big land yacht.
  20. Sounds like a nice purchase...may it serve you well for many, many miles. Welcome back also...

    Wow..

    QUOTE(blackviper8891 @ Jan 27 2008, 06:35 PM) [snapback]361694[/snapback] Well, the big crash was only two and half years ago. I know Moltar was here when I originally joined in 03. That sounds right..I know I've been around a while...probably 5 years or more.
  22. Of course, there still will only be 3 models..
  23. Robert Hall

    Wow..

    I don' t recall when I first joined, but it was before the big crash...
  24. Yes, it's an excellent issue... I liked the pics of the evolution of clay design mock ups that led to the '77s. Another good current magazine is the current Hemmings Classic Car, which is an all-GM issue celebrating GM's 100th. I've subscribed to CA for about 15 years now, it's my favorite old car mag.
  25. The Smart was engineered from the beginning for modern Western crash tests, though...has the 'safety cage' construction. I doubt if the Nano has such construction.
