  1. Maybe Chrysler is doing the smart thing and putting all it's chips in the Aspen.. </sarcasm>
  2. That must be painted black sir. Make sure to tint out the windows and make yourself some extra money in May.
  3. It's a shame no one ever though of that before...
  4. When I came out 10 years ago, it seemed necessary to have a sit down "announcement" with the people I was coming out to. It was people's reactions that necessitated that. These days, I treat it so a-matter-a-factly that coming out is as simple as introducing me partner to someone or keeping a picture of us on my desk. I suspect that with celebrities, coming out on a national scale is needed simply to stop the whispers and speculation. For example, look at Chris at the beginning of this thread offering speculation on Anderson Cooper. Since he hasn't been on Barbara Walters yet, it's not widely known that he is gay. Even some gay guys don't "know" it yet, they just have their suspicions. Anderson Cooper being gay is still whispered about in that wink wink nudge nudge sort of way even though he makes little if any effort to hide it. If he came out on a national scale it would become a non-story after about a day. I think that's the exact reason Neil Patrick Harris came out like this. Next week, it's non-news.
  5. You're all chipping in to buy me this for my B-day right?
  6. For those that don't like the Silverado's styling, can I interest you in this lovely GMC Sierra over here?
  7. Holy crap! That car is pimp. BTW, you need to update your sig.
  8. It's sad when a K-car Imperial is more in tune with it's time than this concept....
  9. GM's been doing this for a couple of years now... it's about time they scaled it down to automotive size.
  10. Oh I agree, I just still think it's funny that that Ford is even taking shots at the Sebring.
  11. Nothing against a LaX, but what about a CPOed Lucerne?
  12. Some of these celebrities come out like this simply to end the "scandal". Look at all the speculation about Lance Bass, Rosie, Doogie, etc being gay. After they admit to it, it becomes a non-story. It is fairly well known that Anderson Cooper is gay. He has been seen at the gay bars in D.C. many times. He doesn't hide it. I fear though that some "reporter" somewhere will decide to report on Anderson's closet and start harassing him. Then Anderson will end up on some "coming out" special with Barbara Walters.
  13. When Ford can point at you and say "HA HA" in a Nelson voice, you know you're f@#ked.
  14. Hey Chrysler, try selling the cars you've already built first.
  15. I, for one, hated the character of Jack on Will & Grace simply because he didn't show that differences are small. I felt that he perpetuated the negative stereotype and just reinforced peoples view of gay people. I can't stand gay guys like that at all.
  16. Thanks guys! I hope I get what I want for my B-day.
  17. Drew Dowdell replied to Enzora's topic in The Lounge
    Yowza!
  18. It's not meant for those situations. This is a car meant for running down to the WaWa to pick up some pork roll but not using the S-class to do it.
  19. that thing must understeer like a sonofabitch
  20. Anderson Cooper doesn't actively hide it. Just because he hasn't been on the cover of Time with "Yep! I'm Gay!" doesn't mean he's not out.
  21. Yes, we get smart in 2008, but not for any automotive reasons.
  22. The technology is a sunk cost. The only increased cost is time and materials. All it does is change the amortization.
  23. here's an idea drop both the 4.3 and 4.8 and replace it with just the I6. GM could/would save on production costs by simplifying the lineup with the clearly superior engine.
  24. Regardless of ones political affliliation, I believe there should always be a check and balance in the government. Right now we have none. I nearly always support the party opposite the party in the whitehouse.
