That picture made my day. Thank you.

Went on that site and answered the little quiz in the corner that asks what is important for you in a city. Here is where it told me I should live: 1 NY New York 8,143,776 2 CA Los Angeles 3,904,507 3 IL Chicago 2,873,790 4 PA Philadelphia 1,455,807 5 TX Houston 2,085,082 6 AZ Surprise 56,487 7 TX San Antonio 1,227,042 8 TX Dallas 1,248,673 9 AZ Phoenix 1,441,718 10 CA San Diego 1,289,355 Surprise? Is that a joke? I could see myself living in NY for sure. If I had to live in the US, it would be there or Boston.

Never heard of BJ's. Costco is better than Sam's though. I still want to call it Price Club.

Is it wrong that I like all three of those designs? (last gen of each)

From playing too much Colin McRae Rally, I've grown to like the Citroen Xsara.

9 7 4 Olds is such a copier. I bet you he's going to copy my vote, and use his magical time powers to post it BEFORE me. Ugh.

shuck

Yeah, I should try that one, I haven't. I know that there are like 25 different kinds of Sam Adams, which one would you recommend for someone who usually likes stronger beer, even dark beer (doesn't have to be dark though).

Balth - seems like the bit where the arm attached was binding, plastic on plastic. I put some white grease on it and it seems to have fixed it. Thanks.

I've yet to find an American beer I like. They actually brew a different version of Budwieser for Canadian tastes. The Canadian version of Budweiser is OK - but still below the standard of basic Canadian beers like Labatt Blue and Molson Canadian. Maybe I was just ruined by the case of Miller High Life my friend once brought on a camping trip. That's got to be the worst tasting beer I've ever had - and it's not even strong!

You don't think there's room for a gentle-suspension, cushy-seat Buick highway cruiser and a taught, pseudo-racing-seat M5 competitor Pontiac at the same dealership?

I don't know if I'd go as far as saying ANY car attribute is #1 - you're always going to sell a car like the Cobalt to lots of different people. That's why I think it's a good idea for them to have an SS Cobalt for some and a diesel base model for others.

Every time I saw the "0.8" (liters!!) badge on the back of Chery QQs while in China I just couldn't stop laughing.

I don't consider myself handy but... this was pretty easy actually. I just put in a window mount air conditioner. I had to take out a fixed pane of glass to do it. I just ripped out some sheilding and pushed on the window, and it came off the caulking and popped right out. I was worried I was going to break it putting it in. The only problem is that I can't find my caulking, or my duct tape, so right now all the air leaks are sealed with scotch tape. Yes, its actually strong enough - 3M makes some good scotch tape, apparently. So, what else around the house is surprisingly easy? Has anyone else fixed something or installed something that they can give tips on? While I'm posting this, I might as well also ask about my toilet. It's sometimes not refilling. The float is mounted around a vertical pipe. The pipe has a small plastic arm coming out of the top, which has a small metal arm going down to the float. When the float is low in the tank (low water), it pulls the plastic arm down, filling the tank. Sometimes when it flushes, the float gets stuck around the pipe. If I give the plastic arm a little tap, the float drops and everything goes back to normal. You can't lubricate things underwater - so I can't really stop the float from sticking on the pipe. Maybe if I add some weight to the float? Would that work? How would I add weight to a float that's always underwater?

OK - Mute! Think about it man! Piercings are fine by me - you can take 'em out, and the hole grows back. Gauging does NOT go back to normal. Just picture an old man with big droopy earlobes with huge slits in the middle that look like sloppy vaginas. Now you know what you will look like when you get old.

I like these rims. I think narrow spokes look classier, and twin spokes like this are sporty. Good combination. On a side note, OCN's comment reminded me of my least favorite rims of late. BEEF CAKE:

I had no idea the Vanquish was so expensive!

Well... I would have tried 'em all, but 6/8 were already answered when I got here.

1935 Terraplane Deluxe Six

You know it's better. I don't understand why they never caught on outside of Canada.

MacGyver was good - as an 80's TV show. However, it should NOT come back. In any form.
